About the Vitara Cabrio 1.6 16V 97

The 1989 Suzuki Vitara Cabrio 1.6 16V 97 is an all-wheel-drive naturally aspirated roadster of 1,080 kg with 95 bhp, which works out at 88 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.91 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 12,567th quickest to 60 mph, and the 56th quickest of the 93 Suzukis here. Its 74.2 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 Suzuki Vitara Cabrio 1.6 16V 97 0-60 time?
The Suzuki Vitara Cabrio 1.6 16V 97 reaches 60 mph in 11.76 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 12,567th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Suzuki Vitara Cabrio 1.6 16V 97 quarter mile time?
18.44 s at 74.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.80 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.91 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Suzuki Vitara Cabrio 1.6 16V 97 have?
95 bhp and 1,080 kg, which is 88 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 150 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Suzuki Vitara Cabrio 1.6 16V 97?
Closest here on pace: MINI Convertible One 1.6 98 (11.83 s), Dacia Duster 1.6 105 (2013) (11.76 s), Lada Kalina Hatchback 1.6 TDCi 90 (11.71 s). Each one can be raced against the Suzuki Vitara Cabrio 1.6 16V 97 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 Suzuki Vitara Cabrio 1.6 16V 97 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.
