The 2003 Peugeot 406 Coupe 2.2 16V 160 is a front-drive naturally aspirated coupe of 1,420 kg with 156 bhp, which works out at 110 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.95 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 7,846th quickest to 60 mph, and the 96th quickest of the 456 Peugeots here. Its 85.7 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.

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.
