Saab 9-5 SportCombi 2.0 150

The Saab 9-5 SportCombi 2.0 150 reaches 60 mph in 11.34 s (100 km/h in 12.05 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 18.36 s, tripping the lights at 77.4 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 3.14 s and the eighth mile in 11.95 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 9-5 SportCombi 2.0 150

The 2001 Saab 9-5 SportCombi 2.0 150 is a front-drive turbocharged saloon of 1,555 kg with 148 bhp, which works out at 95 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 3.14 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 12,080th quickest to 60 mph, and the 80th quickest of the 86 Saabs here. Its 77.4 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.

Questions

What is the Saab 9-5 SportCombi 2.0 150 0-60 time?
The Saab 9-5 SportCombi 2.0 150 reaches 60 mph in 11.34 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 12,080th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Saab 9-5 SportCombi 2.0 150 quarter mile time?
18.36 s at 77.4 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.95 s and clears the first 60 ft in 3.14 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Saab 9-5 SportCombi 2.0 150 have?
148 bhp and 1,555 kg, which is 95 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbocharged, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 204 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Saab 9-5 SportCombi 2.0 150?
Closest here on pace: Qoros 3 Sedan 1.6 126 (11.39 s), Chevrolet Sonic Sedan (US) 1.4 100 (11.40 s), Oldsmobile Toronado 5.7 V8 167 (11.31 s). Each one can be raced against the Saab 9-5 SportCombi 2.0 150 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 Saab 9-5 SportCombi 2.0 150 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.
