About the Leon 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk3)

The 2013 Seat Leon 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk3) is a front-drive turbodiesel car of 1,230 kg with 148 bhp, which works out at 120 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.49 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 2,929 cars in the set it is the 2,545th quickest to 60 mph, and the quickest of the 3 Seats here. Its 87.4 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.

Closest here on pace: Abarth 500 (7.49 s), Volkswagen Golf 1.5 TSI 150 (Mk8) (7.71 s), Fiat Croma I.e. Turbo (155 PS) 1A Serie) (Pre-Facelift (7.65 s). Each one can be raced against the Seat Leon 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk3) in the panel at the top of this page.
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 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk3) 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.
