VW Arteon 2.0 TDI 190

The VW Arteon 2.0 TDI 190 reaches 60 mph in 7.21 s (100 km/h in 7.64 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 15.57 s, tripping the lights at 90.3 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 2.46 s and the eighth mile in 10.06 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 Arteon 2.0 TDI 190

The 2017 VW Arteon 2.0 TDI 190 is a front-drive turbodiesel saloon of 1,576 kg with 188 bhp, which works out at 119 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.46 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 5,038th quickest to 60 mph, and the 196th quickest of the 1124 VWs here. Its 90.3 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 VW Arteon 2.0 TDI 190 0-60 time?
The VW Arteon 2.0 TDI 190 reaches 60 mph in 7.21 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 5,038th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the VW Arteon 2.0 TDI 190 quarter mile time?
15.57 s at 90.3 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.06 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.46 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the VW Arteon 2.0 TDI 190 have?
188 bhp and 1,576 kg, which is 119 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbodiesel, with 7 gears and a quoted top speed of 238 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the VW Arteon 2.0 TDI 190?
Closest here on pace: BMW 3 Series Sedan (E90) 320d xDrive 184 Auto (7.17 s), BMW 3 Series Sedan (E90) 320d 177 Auto (7.19 s), BMW 5 Series 530d 193 Auto (7.20 s). Each one can be raced against the VW Arteon 2.0 TDI 190 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 VW Arteon 2.0 TDI 190 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.
