The 2018 Volvo S60 2.0 T5 250 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged saloon of 1,720 kg with 247 bhp, which works out at 143 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.03 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 2,953rd quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 18th quickest of the 386 Volvos here. Its 95.5 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.
