Subaru WRX STI sedan

The Subaru WRX STI sedan reaches 60 mph in 4.90 s (100 km/h in 5.18 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 13.49 s, tripping the lights at 102.1 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.04 s and the eighth mile in 8.64 s, reaching 100 mph in 12.85 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.

About the WRX STI sedan

The 2010 Subaru WRX STI sedan is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged saloon of 1,590 kg with 296 bhp, which works out at 186 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.04 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 2,066th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 7th quickest of the 119 Subarus here. Its 102.1 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 9 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Subaru WRX STI sedan 0-60 time?
The Subaru WRX STI sedan reaches 60 mph in 4.90 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 2,066th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Subaru WRX STI sedan quarter mile time?
13.49 s at 102.1 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 8.64 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.04 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Subaru WRX STI sedan have?
296 bhp and 1,590 kg, which is 186 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbocharged, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 255 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Subaru WRX STI sedan?
Closest here on pace: Lexus GS 350 V6 315 (4.91 s), Jaguar XE 300 Sport 2.0 300 (4.93 s), Bentley Azure T (4.94 s). Each one can be raced against the Subaru WRX STI sedan 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 Subaru WRX STI sedan is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
