SEAT Leon FR

The SEAT Leon FR reaches 60 mph in 6.65 s (100 km/h in 7.02 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.16 s, tripping the lights at 92.8 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.45 s and the eighth mile in 9.84 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

The 2006 SEAT Leon FR is a front-drive turbocharged car of 1,309 kg with 197 bhp, which works out at 151 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.45 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 4,093rd quickest to 60 mph, and the 12th quickest of the 192 SEATs here. Its 92.8 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 9 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the SEAT Leon FR 0-60 time?
The SEAT Leon FR reaches 60 mph in 6.65 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 4,093rd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the SEAT Leon FR quarter mile time?
15.16 s at 92.8 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.84 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.45 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the SEAT Leon FR have?
197 bhp and 1,309 kg, which is 151 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 229 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the SEAT Leon FR?
Closest here on pace: Renault Clio 197 (6.65 s), Fiat 500C Abarth esseesse 1.4 160 (6.66 s), Fiat 595 Abarth 1.4 turismo 165 (6.63 s). Each one can be raced against the SEAT Leon FR 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 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 9 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
