The 2014 Smart forfour 1.0 60 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated car of 970 kg with 59 bhp, which works out at 61 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 61 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 3.41 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 14,462nd quickest to 60 mph, and the 23rd quickest of the 24 Smarts here. Its 69.1 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.
