About the Golf VII 5dr 1.4 TSI BlueMotion 150 DCT
The 2012 VW Golf VII 5dr 1.4 TSI BlueMotion 150 DCT is a front-drive turbocharged car of 1,288 kg with 148 bhp, which works out at 115 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.47 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 5,307th quickest to 60 mph, and the 219th quickest of the 1124 VWs here. Its 88.2 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 Golf VII 5dr 1.4 TSI BlueMotion 150 DCT 0-60 time?
The VW Golf VII 5dr 1.4 TSI BlueMotion 150 DCT reaches 60 mph in 7.37 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 5,307th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the VW Golf VII 5dr 1.4 TSI BlueMotion 150 DCT quarter mile time?
15.76 s at 88.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.16 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.47 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the VW Golf VII 5dr 1.4 TSI BlueMotion 150 DCT have?
148 bhp and 1,288 kg, which is 115 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, turbocharged, with 7 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 VW Golf VII 5dr 1.4 TSI BlueMotion 150 DCT?
Closest here on pace: Skoda Scala 1.5 TSI 150 (7.43 s), Peugeot 207 - 5dr 1.6 THP 156 (7.33 s), Mercedes-Benz A-Class (W176) 200 156 (7.34 s). Each one can be raced against the VW Golf VII 5dr 1.4 TSI BlueMotion 150 DCT 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 Golf VII 5dr 1.4 TSI BlueMotion 150 DCT 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.
Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
