Volvo V70 2.0T 180

The Volvo V70 2.0T 180 reaches 60 mph in 7.79 s (100 km/h in 8.73 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.19 s, tripping the lights at 85.5 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.59 s and the eighth mile in 10.45 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 V70 2.0T 180

The 2004 Volvo V70 2.0T 180 is a front-drive turbocharged saloon of 1,501 kg with 177 bhp, which works out at 118 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 6,106th quickest to 60 mph, and the 124th quickest of the 386 Volvos here. It leaves better than it pulls: 85.5 mph at the lights is only the 7,037th highest here, so its 0-60 flatters what it does further out. 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 V70 2.0T 180 0-60 time?
The Volvo V70 2.0T 180 reaches 60 mph in 7.79 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 6,106th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Volvo V70 2.0T 180 quarter mile time?
16.19 s at 85.5 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.45 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 V70 2.0T 180 have?
177 bhp and 1,501 kg, which is 118 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbocharged, with 5 gears and a quoted top speed of 210 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Volvo V70 2.0T 180?
Closest here on pace: Hyundai XG 3.5i V6 197 (7.83 s), Mazda Xedos 9 2.5 V6 167 (1993) (7.83 s), Holden Vectra Sedan 2.6 V6 170 (7.75 s). Each one can be raced against the Volvo V70 2.0T 180 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 V70 2.0T 180 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.
