Opel Astra GTC 1.6 Turbo 180

The Opel Astra GTC 1.6 Turbo 180 reaches 60 mph in 7.52 s (100 km/h in 7.94 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.83 s, tripping the lights at 89.2 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.47 s and the eighth mile in 10.26 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the Astra GTC 1.6 Turbo 180

The 2011 Opel Astra GTC 1.6 Turbo 180 is a front-drive turbocharged saloon of 1,503 kg with 177 bhp, which works out at 118 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.47 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 5,600th quickest to 60 mph, and the 74th quickest of the 721 Opels here. Its 89.2 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Opel Astra GTC 1.6 Turbo 180 0-60 time?
The Opel Astra GTC 1.6 Turbo 180 reaches 60 mph in 7.52 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 5,600th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Opel Astra GTC 1.6 Turbo 180 quarter mile time?
15.83 s at 89.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.26 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.47 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Opel Astra GTC 1.6 Turbo 180 have?
177 bhp and 1,503 kg, which is 118 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 220 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Opel Astra GTC 1.6 Turbo 180?
Closest here on pace: VW Jetta 1.4 TSI 160 (7.52 s), Peugeot 408 1.6 THP 163 (7.51 s), BMW 5 Series 520d 177 (7.50 s). Each one can be raced against the Opel Astra GTC 1.6 Turbo 180 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Opel Astra GTC 1.6 Turbo 180 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
