Saab 900 2.0 130

The Saab 900 2.0 130 reaches 60 mph in 9.58 s (100 km/h in 10.12 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 17.25 s, tripping the lights at 82.5 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.97 s and the eighth mile in 11.29 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.

Pick who it runs against, then watch it happen — and change the surface, the weather or the distance and run it again.

About the 900 2.0 130

The 1994 Saab 900 2.0 130 is a front-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,297 kg with 129 bhp, which works out at 99 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.97 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 9,437th quickest to 60 mph, and the 58th quickest of the 86 Saabs here. Its 82.5 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 900 2.0 130 0-60 time?
The Saab 900 2.0 130 reaches 60 mph in 9.58 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 9,437th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Saab 900 2.0 130 quarter mile time?
17.25 s at 82.5 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.29 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.97 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Saab 900 2.0 130 have?
129 bhp and 1,297 kg, which is 99 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 200 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Saab 900 2.0 130?
Closest here on pace: Samsung SM5 1.8 134 (9.57 s), Nissan Primera Traveller 2.0 16V 116 (9.57 s), Hyundai Lantra 1.6i 114 (1998) (9.57 s). Each one can be raced against the Saab 900 2.0 130 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 900 2.0 130 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.
