Saab 9000 CD 3.0i V6 211

The Saab 9000 CD 3.0i V6 211 reaches 60 mph in 7.28 s (100 km/h in 7.64 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.72 s, tripping the lights at 91.6 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.75 s and the eighth mile in 10.36 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 9000 CD 3.0i V6 211

The 1994 Saab 9000 CD 3.0i V6 211 is a front-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,455 kg with 208 bhp, which works out at 143 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.75 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 5,153rd quickest to 60 mph, and the 11th quickest of the 86 Saabs here. Its 91.6 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 9000 CD 3.0i V6 211 0-60 time?
The Saab 9000 CD 3.0i V6 211 reaches 60 mph in 7.28 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 5,153rd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Saab 9000 CD 3.0i V6 211 quarter mile time?
15.72 s at 91.6 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.36 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.75 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Saab 9000 CD 3.0i V6 211 have?
208 bhp and 1,455 kg, which is 143 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 230 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Saab 9000 CD 3.0i V6 211?
Closest here on pace: Oldsmobile Aurora 3.5 V6 215 (7.28 s), Lexus IS 250 V6 (EU) 207 (7.32 s), Cadillac DeVille 4.6 V8 279 (7.25 s). Each one can be raced against the Saab 9000 CD 3.0i V6 211 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 9000 CD 3.0i V6 211 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.
