Ford Fiesta vs Opel Astra Sedan 1.4 60

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Ford Fiesta is the quicker car, covering it in 15.76 s at 89.1 mph against the Opel Astra Sedan 1.4 60’s 20.28 s — a margin of 4.52 s. To 60 mph the Ford Fiesta takes 7.58 s and the Opel Astra Sedan 1.4 60 14.55 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 Ford Fiesta or the Opel Astra Sedan 1.4 60 faster?
The Ford Fiesta. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 15.76 s to the Opel Astra Sedan 1.4 60's 20.28 s, a margin of 4.52 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 7.58 s against 14.55 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Ford Fiesta 0-60 time?
The Ford Fiesta reaches 60 mph in 7.58 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 15.76 s at 89.1 mph.
What is the Opel Astra Sedan 1.4 60 0-60 time?
The Opel Astra Sedan 1.4 60 reaches 60 mph in 14.55 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 20.28 s at 69.7 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Ford Fiesta trips the lights at 89.1 mph and the Opel Astra Sedan 1.4 60 at 69.7 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 — 9 of 9 for the Ford Fiesta and 2 of 2 for the Opel Astra Sedan 1.4 60. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
