Volvo S80 2.4 D 175

The Volvo S80 2.4 D 175 reaches 60 mph in 8.54 s (100 km/h in 9.10 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.60 s, tripping the lights at 83.8 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.59 s and the eighth mile in 10.68 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 S80 2.4 D 175

The 2009 Volvo S80 2.4 D 175 is a front-drive turbodiesel saloon of 1,792 kg with 173 bhp, which works out at 97 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.59 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 7,569th quickest to 60 mph, and the 183rd quickest of the 386 Volvos here. Its 83.8 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 Volvo S80 2.4 D 175 0-60 time?
The Volvo S80 2.4 D 175 reaches 60 mph in 8.54 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 7,569th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Volvo S80 2.4 D 175 quarter mile time?
16.60 s at 83.8 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.68 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.59 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Volvo S80 2.4 D 175 have?
173 bhp and 1,792 kg, which is 97 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 216 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Volvo S80 2.4 D 175?
Closest here on pace: Holden Epica 2.0 D 150 (8.52 s), Opel Astra GTC 1.4 Turbo ecoFLEX 140 (8.50 s), Skoda Rapid 1.4 TSI Green Tec 122 (8.50 s). Each one can be raced against the Volvo S80 2.4 D 175 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 S80 2.4 D 175 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.
