The 2008 Volvo S60 2.5T 210 is a front-drive turbocharged saloon of 1,700 kg with 207 bhp, which works out at 121 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.54 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 4,095th quickest to 60 mph, and the 59th quickest of the 386 Volvos here. Its 92.9 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.
