Opel Corsa GSi D

The Opel Corsa GSi D reaches 60 mph in 7.44 s and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.86 s, tripping the lights at 88.3 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.55 s and the eighth mile in 10.29 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 Corsa GSi D

The 2008 Opel Corsa GSi D is a front-drive turbocharged car of 1,244 kg with 148 bhp, which works out at 119 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.55 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 2,939 cars in the set it is the 2,507th quickest to 60 mph, and the 24th quickest of the 34 Opels here. Its 88.3 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 9 of 9 published acceleration figures for this car.

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 Corsa GSi D is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 9 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
