Smart forfour 1.0 71

The Smart forfour 1.0 71 reaches 60 mph in 15.32 s (100 km/h in 16.41 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 20.32 s, tripping the lights at 68.9 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 3.43 s and the eighth mile in 13.16 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 forfour 1.0 71

The 2014 Smart forfour 1.0 71 is a rear-drive naturally aspirated car of 975 kg with 70 bhp, which works out at 72 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 72 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 3.43 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 14,502nd quickest to 60 mph, and the 24th quickest of the 24 Smarts here. Its 68.9 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 Smart forfour 1.0 71 0-60 time?
The Smart forfour 1.0 71 reaches 60 mph in 15.32 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 14,502nd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Smart forfour 1.0 71 quarter mile time?
20.32 s at 68.9 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 13.16 s and clears the first 60 ft in 3.43 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Smart forfour 1.0 71 have?
70 bhp and 975 kg, which is 72 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 151 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Smart forfour 1.0 71?
Closest here on pace: Daewoo Matiz 0.8 52 (2001) (15.39 s), Subaru Mini Jumbo 3dr 0.8 42 (15.33 s), Ford Fiesta 3dr 1.25 60 (2008) (15.32 s). Each one can be raced against the Smart forfour 1.0 71 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 Smart forfour 1.0 71 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.
