SEAT Leon Copa Edition

The SEAT Leon Copa Edition reaches 60 mph in 5.31 s (100 km/h in 5.57 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 13.76 s, tripping the lights at 103.5 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.26 s and the eighth mile in 8.97 s, reaching 100 mph in 12.74 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 Copa Edition

The 2008 SEAT Leon Copa Edition is a front-drive turbocharged car of 1,440 kg with 282 bhp, which works out at 196 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.26 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 2,487th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 2nd quickest of the 192 SEATs here. Its 103.5 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 9 of 10 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 Leon Copa Edition 0-60 time?
The SEAT Leon Copa Edition reaches 60 mph in 5.31 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 2,487th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the SEAT Leon Copa Edition quarter mile time?
13.76 s at 103.5 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.97 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.26 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the SEAT Leon Copa Edition have?
282 bhp and 1,440 kg, which is 196 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 255 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the SEAT Leon Copa Edition?
Closest here on pace: Mitsubishi Lancer EVO IX (5.28 s), Subaru WRX STI (5.27 s), Infiniti G35 Mk IV (5.23 s). Each one can be raced against the SEAT Leon Copa Edition 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 Copa Edition is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
