Toyota Corrola AE86 Levin

The Toyota Corrola AE86 Levin reaches 60 mph in 8.25 s (100 km/h in 8.69 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.28 s, tripping the lights at 87.9 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.76 s and the eighth mile in 10.65 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 Corrola AE86 Levin

The 1983 Toyota Corrola AE86 Levin is a rear-drive naturally aspirated car of 1,087 kg with 118 bhp, which works out at 109 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 109 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 2.76 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 7,013th quickest to 60 mph, and the 80th quickest of the 311 Toyotas here. It traps higher than its 0-60 suggests — 87.9 mph, the 5,960th highest here — so it is a car that keeps going rather than one that simply leaves well. The simulation is trimmed to 7 of 9 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Toyota Corrola AE86 Levin 0-60 time?
The Toyota Corrola AE86 Levin reaches 60 mph in 8.25 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 7,013th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Toyota Corrola AE86 Levin quarter mile time?
16.28 s at 87.9 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.65 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.76 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Toyota Corrola AE86 Levin have?
118 bhp and 1,087 kg, which is 109 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 200 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Toyota Corrola AE86 Levin?
Closest here on pace: Hyundai Elantra 4dr 2.0 143 (8.28 s), Hyundai Elantra 5dr 2.0 143 (8.28 s), Hyundai Elantra 5dr 2.0 ( 141 HP) (8.28 s). Each one can be raced against the Toyota Corrola AE86 Levin 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 Toyota Corrola AE86 Levin is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 7 of its 9 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
