The 2002 Subaru Forester 2.5 XT 210 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged SUV of 1,400 kg with 208 bhp, which works out at 148 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.21 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 2,844th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 30th quickest of the 119 Subarus here. It leaves better than it pulls: 94.8 mph at the lights is only the 3,763rd 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.
