The 1996 Peugeot 106 GTi/S16 is a front-drive naturally aspirated car of 970 kg with 118 bhp, which works out at 122 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.59 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 2,660th quickest to 60 mph, and the 19th quickest of the 29 Peugeots here. Its 85.5 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.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.
