The 2017 Volvo XC60 2.0 D5 235 is an all-wheel-drive turbodiesel SUV of 1,941 kg with 232 bhp, which works out at 120 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.10 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 3,801st quickest to 60 mph, and the 47th quickest of the 386 Volvos here. It leaves better than it pulls: 90.4 mph at the lights is only the 4,985th 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.
