Citroen C3 1.1 60 vs Citroen DS3 Performance

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Citroen DS3 Performance is the quicker car, covering it in 14.29 s at 97.6 mph against the Citroen C3 1.1 60’s 20.18 s — a margin of 5.89 s. To 60 mph the Citroen DS3 Performance takes 5.69 s and the Citroen C3 1.1 60 14.37 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from each car’s published kerb mass, rated power and drivetrain, then fitted to its own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Questions

Is the Citroen C3 1.1 60 or the Citroen DS3 Performance faster?
The Citroen DS3 Performance. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 14.29 s to the Citroen C3 1.1 60's 20.18 s, a margin of 5.89 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 5.69 s against 14.37 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Citroen C3 1.1 60 0-60 time?
The Citroen C3 1.1 60 reaches 60 mph in 14.37 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 20.18 s at 69.5 mph.
What is the Citroen DS3 Performance 0-60 time?
The Citroen DS3 Performance reaches 60 mph in 5.69 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 14.29 s at 97.6 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Citroen C3 1.1 60 trips the lights at 69.5 mph and the Citroen DS3 Performance at 97.6 mph at the end of the quarter mile. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every time on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. Each car is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it matches its own published acceleration figures — 2 of 2 for the Citroen C3 1.1 60 and 9 of 10 for the Citroen DS3 Performance. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
