SEAT Cordoba SX 1.9 TDI 90

The SEAT Cordoba SX 1.9 TDI 90 reaches 60 mph in 11.32 s (100 km/h in 12.05 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 18.29 s, tripping the lights at 75.2 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.92 s and the eighth mile in 11.76 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 Cordoba SX 1.9 TDI 90

The 1996 SEAT Cordoba SX 1.9 TDI 90 is a front-drive turbodiesel car of 1,050 kg with 89 bhp, which works out at 84 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.92 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 12,052nd quickest to 60 mph, and the 109th quickest of the 192 SEATs here. Its 75.2 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 SEAT Cordoba SX 1.9 TDI 90 0-60 time?
The SEAT Cordoba SX 1.9 TDI 90 reaches 60 mph in 11.32 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 12,052nd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the SEAT Cordoba SX 1.9 TDI 90 quarter mile time?
18.29 s at 75.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.76 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.92 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the SEAT Cordoba SX 1.9 TDI 90 have?
89 bhp and 1,050 kg, which is 84 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 180 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the SEAT Cordoba SX 1.9 TDI 90?
Closest here on pace: Subaru Impreza 4dr 1.6 CVT 114 (11.35 s), Subaru Impreza 4dr 1.6 114 (11.23 s), Isuzu Amigo 3dr 2.2 132 (11.32 s). Each one can be raced against the SEAT Cordoba SX 1.9 TDI 90 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 SEAT Cordoba SX 1.9 TDI 90 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.
