Volvo XC60 2.0 D4 181

The Volvo XC60 2.0 D4 181 reaches 60 mph in 7.64 s (100 km/h in 8.13 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 16.00 s, tripping the lights at 86.9 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.53 s and the eighth mile in 10.34 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 XC60 2.0 D4 181

The 2013 Volvo XC60 2.0 D4 181 is a front-drive turbodiesel SUV of 1,854 kg with 178 bhp, which works out at 96 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.53 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 5,814th quickest to 60 mph, and the 116th quickest of the 386 Volvos here. Its 86.9 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.

Questions

What is the Volvo XC60 2.0 D4 181 0-60 time?
The Volvo XC60 2.0 D4 181 reaches 60 mph in 7.64 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 5,814th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Volvo XC60 2.0 D4 181 quarter mile time?
16.00 s at 86.9 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.34 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.53 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Volvo XC60 2.0 D4 181 have?
178 bhp and 1,854 kg, which is 96 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 209 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Volvo XC60 2.0 D4 181?
Closest here on pace: Lexus LX 450d 272 (7.68 s), Skoda Kodiaq 2.0 TDI 177 (7.71 s), VW Tiguan Allspace 2.0 TDI 4MOTION 190 (7.66 s). Each one can be raced against the Volvo XC60 2.0 D4 181 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 XC60 2.0 D4 181 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.
