About the Preve 1.6 CVT 140

The 2011 Proton Preve 1.6 CVT 140 is a front-drive turbocharged saloon of 1,340 kg with 138 bhp, which works out at 103 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.56 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 7,726th quickest to 60 mph, and the 2nd quickest of the 21 Protons here. It leaves better than it pulls: 81.7 mph at the lights is only the 9,107th highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. 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.

Questions

What is the Proton Preve 1.6 CVT 140 0-60 time?

The Proton Preve 1.6 CVT 140 reaches 60 mph in 8.61 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 7,726th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.

What is the Proton Preve 1.6 CVT 140 quarter mile time?

16.68 s at 81.7 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.65 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.56 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

How much power does the Proton Preve 1.6 CVT 140 have?

138 bhp and 1,340 kg, which is 103 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbocharged, with 7 gears and a quoted top speed of 190 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

What cars are comparable to the Proton Preve 1.6 CVT 140?

Closest here on pace: Renault Talisman 1.6 TCe 150 (8.65 s), Vauxhall Insignia Sedan 2.0 CDTI 160 (8.60 s), Renault Vel Satis 2.0 16V Turbo 170 (8.67 s). Each one can be raced against the Proton Preve 1.6 CVT 140 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 Proton Preve 1.6 CVT 140 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.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
