The 2011 Renault Twingo 1.2 TCe 100 is a front-drive turbocharged car of 955 kg with 101 bhp, which works out at 105 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.62 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 8,195th quickest to 60 mph, and the 115th quickest of the 499 Renaults here. Its 82.1 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.
