Opel Speedster

The Opel Speedster reaches 60 mph in 6.30 s (100 km/h in 6.63 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 14.88 s, tripping the lights at 94.5 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.43 s and the eighth mile in 9.67 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 Speedster

The 2015 Opel Speedster is a rear-drive naturally aspirated roadster of 886 kg with 145 bhp, which works out at 163 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 163 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.43 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 3,612th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 23rd quickest of the 721 Opels here. Its 94.5 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 8 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Opel Speedster 0-60 time?
The Opel Speedster reaches 60 mph in 6.30 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 3,612th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Opel Speedster quarter mile time?
14.88 s at 94.5 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.67 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.43 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Opel Speedster have?
145 bhp and 886 kg, which is 163 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 217 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Opel Speedster?
Closest here on pace: Abarth 124 Spider (6.18 s), Fiat Abarth 124 Spider 1.4 170 (6.20 s), MINI Roadster Cooper S (6.20 s). Each one can be raced against the Opel Speedster 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 Speedster is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 8 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
