The 2008 Skoda Octavia 1.8 TSI 1Z is a front-drive turbocharged car of 1,325 kg with 158 bhp, which works out at 119 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.51 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 2,939 cars in the set it is the 2,459th quickest to 60 mph, and the 11th quickest of the 22 Skodas here. Its 89.7 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.

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.
