SEAT Leon FR TDI

The SEAT Leon FR TDI reaches 60 mph in 6.87 s (100 km/h in 7.28 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.39 s, tripping the lights at 91.1 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.46 s and the eighth mile in 9.97 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 FR TDI

The 2007 SEAT Leon FR TDI is a front-drive turbodiesel car of 1,425 kg with 168 bhp, which works out at 118 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.46 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 4,434th quickest to 60 mph, and the 17th quickest of the 192 SEATs here. Its 91.1 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 FR TDI 0-60 time?
The SEAT Leon FR TDI reaches 60 mph in 6.87 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 4,434th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the SEAT Leon FR TDI quarter mile time?
15.39 s at 91.1 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.97 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.46 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the SEAT Leon FR TDI have?
168 bhp and 1,425 kg, which is 118 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 214 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the SEAT Leon FR TDI?
Closest here on pace: MINI Clubman Cooper SD 2.0 190 (6.87 s), Audi A4 2.0 TDI B9 (6.94 s), Peugeot 207 - 3dr 1.6 THP 150 (6.89 s). Each one can be raced against the SEAT Leon FR TDI 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 FR TDI 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.
