About the Ultimate

The 2016 Ruf Ultimate is a rear-drive turbocharged supercar of 1,215 kg with 582 bhp, which works out at 479 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 479 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 1.70 s. Against the 2,929 cars in the set it is the 178th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest tenth, and the 2nd quickest of the 23 Rufs here. Its 127.7 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 9 of 11 published acceleration figures for this car.

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 Ruf Ultimate is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 11 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
