Ford Focus 1.5 TDCi 120 (Mk4) vs Ford EcoSport 1.5 EcoBlue 125

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Ford Focus 1.5 TDCi 120 (Mk4) is the quicker car, covering it in 16.73 s at 82.3 mph against the Ford EcoSport 1.5 EcoBlue 125’s 17.25 s — a margin of 0.52 s. To 60 mph the Ford Focus 1.5 TDCi 120 (Mk4) takes 9.11 s and the Ford EcoSport 1.5 EcoBlue 125 9.86 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 Focus 1.5 TDCi 120 (Mk4) or the Ford EcoSport 1.5 EcoBlue 125 faster?
The Ford Focus 1.5 TDCi 120 (Mk4). Over a standing quarter mile it runs 16.73 s to the Ford EcoSport 1.5 EcoBlue 125's 17.25 s, a margin of 0.52 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 9.11 s against 9.86 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Ford Focus 1.5 TDCi 120 (Mk4) 0-60 time?
The Ford Focus 1.5 TDCi 120 (Mk4) reaches 60 mph in 9.11 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 16.73 s at 82.3 mph.
What is the Ford EcoSport 1.5 EcoBlue 125 0-60 time?
The Ford EcoSport 1.5 EcoBlue 125 reaches 60 mph in 9.86 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 17.25 s at 78.1 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Ford Focus 1.5 TDCi 120 (Mk4) trips the lights at 82.3 mph and the Ford EcoSport 1.5 EcoBlue 125 at 78.1 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 Ford Focus 1.5 TDCi 120 (Mk4) and 2 of 2 for the Ford EcoSport 1.5 EcoBlue 125. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
