SEAT Leon 1.9 TDI ECO 105

The SEAT Leon 1.9 TDI ECO 105 reaches 60 mph in 9.87 s (100 km/h in 10.49 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 17.41 s, tripping the lights at 78.9 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.73 s and the eighth mile in 11.17 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 Leon 1.9 TDI ECO 105

The 2009 SEAT Leon 1.9 TDI ECO 105 is a front-drive turbodiesel car of 1,250 kg with 103 bhp, which works out at 83 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.73 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 9,916th quickest to 60 mph, and the 73rd quickest of the 192 SEATs here. Its 78.9 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.

Questions

What is the SEAT Leon 1.9 TDI ECO 105 0-60 time?
The SEAT Leon 1.9 TDI ECO 105 reaches 60 mph in 9.87 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 9,916th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the SEAT Leon 1.9 TDI ECO 105 quarter mile time?
17.41 s at 78.9 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.17 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.73 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the SEAT Leon 1.9 TDI ECO 105 have?
103 bhp and 1,250 kg, which is 83 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 185 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the SEAT Leon 1.9 TDI ECO 105?
Closest here on pace: Seat Ibiza 1.0 TSI 95 (Mk5) (9.87 s), Skoda Fabia 1.2 TSI 90 (9.87 s), Skoda Scala 1.0 TSI 95 (9.88 s). Each one can be raced against the SEAT Leon 1.9 TDI ECO 105 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 Leon 1.9 TDI ECO 105 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.
