Volvo XC90 2.0 T5 254

The Volvo XC90 2.0 T5 254 reaches 60 mph in 7.33 s (100 km/h in 7.82 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.64 s, tripping the lights at 86.5 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.19 s and the eighth mile in 9.91 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 XC90 2.0 T5 254

The 2014 Volvo XC90 2.0 T5 254 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged SUV of 2,037 kg with 251 bhp, which works out at 123 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.19 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 5,225th quickest to 60 mph, and the 85th quickest of the 386 Volvos here. It leaves better than it pulls: 86.5 mph at the lights is only the 6,611th 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.

Questions

What is the Volvo XC90 2.0 T5 254 0-60 time?
The Volvo XC90 2.0 T5 254 reaches 60 mph in 7.33 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 5,225th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Volvo XC90 2.0 T5 254 quarter mile time?
15.64 s at 86.5 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 9.91 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.19 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Volvo XC90 2.0 T5 254 have?
251 bhp and 2,037 kg, which is 123 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, turbocharged, with 8 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 XC90 2.0 T5 254?
Closest here on pace: Mercedes-Benz R-Class Lang (W251) 350 V6 268 (7.31 s), Jeep Renegade 2.4 MultiAir 183 (7.33 s), Cadillac SRX 3.6 V6 264 (7.32 s). Each one can be raced against the Volvo XC90 2.0 T5 254 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 XC90 2.0 T5 254 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.
