About the S40 1.6 100

The 2007 Volvo S40 1.6 100 (2007) is a front-drive naturally aspirated saloon of 1,213 kg with 99 bhp, which works out at 82 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 3.11 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 11,462nd quickest to 60 mph, and the 330th quickest of the 386 Volvos 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.

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.

Questions

What is the Volvo S40 1.6 100 (2007) 0-60 time?

The Volvo S40 1.6 100 (2007) reaches 60 mph in 10.86 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 11,462nd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.

What is the Volvo S40 1.6 100 (2007) quarter mile time?

18.14 s at 78.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 11.85 s and clears the first 60 ft in 3.11 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

How much power does the Volvo S40 1.6 100 (2007) have?

99 bhp and 1,213 kg, which is 82 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 185 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

What cars are comparable to the Volvo S40 1.6 100 (2007)?

Closest here on pace: Chevrolet Cruze 1.6 113 HP (10.76 s), Proton Preve 1.6 109 (10.94 s), Nissan Primera Sedan P11 1.6 16V (100) (10.94 s). Each one can be raced against the Volvo S40 1.6 100 (2007) 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 Volvo S40 1.6 100 (2007) 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.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
