Vauxhall Meriva 1.4 Turbo 120

The Vauxhall Meriva 1.4 Turbo 120 reaches 60 mph in 10.25 s (100 km/h in 10.88 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 17.63 s, tripping the lights at 78.2 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.81 s and the eighth mile in 11.34 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.

About the Meriva 1.4 Turbo 120

The 2014 Vauxhall Meriva 1.4 Turbo 120 is a front-drive turbocharged MPV of 1,320 kg with 118 bhp, which works out at 89 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.81 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 10,557th quickest to 60 mph, and the 95th quickest of the 164 Vauxhalls here. Its 78.2 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 Vauxhall Meriva 1.4 Turbo 120 0-60 time?
The Vauxhall Meriva 1.4 Turbo 120 reaches 60 mph in 10.25 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 10,557th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Vauxhall Meriva 1.4 Turbo 120 quarter mile time?
17.63 s at 78.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.34 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.81 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Vauxhall Meriva 1.4 Turbo 120 have?
118 bhp and 1,320 kg, which is 89 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbocharged, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 188 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Vauxhall Meriva 1.4 Turbo 120?
Closest here on pace: Kia Carens 1.6 16V GDI 135 (10.28 s), Citroen Berlingo BlueHDi 130 (Mk3) (10.20 s), Kia Carens 1.6 GDI 135 (10.28 s). Each one can be raced against the Vauxhall Meriva 1.4 Turbo 120 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 Vauxhall Meriva 1.4 Turbo 120 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.
