The Subaru Forester 2.0D 147 reaches 60 mph in 9.42 s (100 km/h in 10.00 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.92 s, tripping the lights at 79.6 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.38 s and the eighth mile in 10.76 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.
Pick who it runs against, then watch it happen — and change the surface, the weather or the distance and run it again.

The 2008 Subaru Forester 2.0D 147 is an all-wheel-drive turbodiesel SUV of 1,560 kg with 145 bhp, which works out at 93 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.38 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 9,147th quickest to 60 mph, and the 79th quickest of the 119 Subarus here. It leaves better than it pulls: 79.6 mph at the lights is only the 10,209th highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 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.
