Skoda Octavia 1.4 80

The Skoda Octavia 1.4 80 reaches 60 mph in 13.05 s (100 km/h in 13.84 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 19.48 s, tripping the lights at 73.1 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 3.39 s and the eighth mile 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 Octavia 1.4 80

The 2008 Skoda Octavia 1.4 80 is a front-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,155 kg with 79 bhp, which works out at 69 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 3.39 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 13,620th quickest to 60 mph, and the 145th quickest of the 178 Skodas here. Its 73.1 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 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Skoda Octavia 1.4 80 0-60 time?
The Skoda Octavia 1.4 80 reaches 60 mph in 13.05 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 13,620th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Skoda Octavia 1.4 80 quarter mile time?
19.48 s at 73.1 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 12.74 s and clears the first 60 ft in 3.39 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Skoda Octavia 1.4 80 have?
79 bhp and 1,155 kg, which is 69 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 174 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Skoda Octavia 1.4 80?
Closest here on pace: Opel Astra Sport Sedan 1.4 100 (12.98 s), Opel Astra Sedan 1.6 75 (13.22 s), Renault Megane Estate 1.4 75 (13.02 s). Each one can be raced against the Skoda Octavia 1.4 80 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 Skoda Octavia 1.4 80 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.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
