The 2014 VW Touareg 3.0 V6 TDI Bluemotion Tech 262 is an all-wheel-drive turbodiesel SUV of 2,251 kg with 257 bhp, which works out at 114 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.13 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 4,319th quickest to 60 mph, and the 136th quickest of the 1124 VWs here. It leaves better than it pulls: 88.9 mph at the lights is only the 5,588th 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.
