Peugeot RCZ 1.6 THP 158

The Peugeot RCZ 1.6 THP 158 reaches 60 mph in 8.09 s (100 km/h in 8.62 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.30 s, tripping the lights at 85.3 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.54 s and the eighth mile in 10.49 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 RCZ 1.6 THP 158

The 2013 Peugeot RCZ 1.6 THP 158 is a front-drive turbocharged car of 1,424 kg with 156 bhp, which works out at 109 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.54 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 6,709th quickest to 60 mph, and the 64th quickest of the 456 Peugeots here. Its 85.3 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 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Peugeot RCZ 1.6 THP 158 0-60 time?
The Peugeot RCZ 1.6 THP 158 reaches 60 mph in 8.09 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 6,709th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Peugeot RCZ 1.6 THP 158 quarter mile time?
16.30 s at 85.3 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.49 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.54 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Peugeot RCZ 1.6 THP 158 have?
156 bhp and 1,424 kg, which is 109 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 214 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Peugeot RCZ 1.6 THP 158?
Closest here on pace: Ford Mondeo Hatchback 2.0 TDCi 163 (8.06 s), Ford Focus 5dr 2.0 TDCi 140 (8.05 s), Fiat Bravo 1.9 Multijet 150 (8.14 s). Each one can be raced against the Peugeot RCZ 1.6 THP 158 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 Peugeot RCZ 1.6 THP 158 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.
