Questions

Is the Ford Focus RS (2009) or the Infiniti Q50 2.2d 170 faster?
The Ford Focus RS (2009). Over a standing quarter mile it runs 13.83 s to the Infiniti Q50 2.2d 170's 16.17 s, a margin of 2.35 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 5.38 s against 8.07 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Ford Focus RS (2009) 0-60 time?
The Ford Focus RS (2009) reaches 60 mph in 5.38 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 13.83 s at 102.9 mph.
What is the Infiniti Q50 2.2d 170 0-60 time?
The Infiniti Q50 2.2d 170 reaches 60 mph in 8.07 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 16.17 s at 87.0 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Ford Focus RS (2009) trips the lights at 102.9 mph and the Infiniti Q50 2.2d 170 at 87.0 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 10 for the Ford Focus RS (2009) and 2 of 2 for the Infiniti Q50 2.2d 170. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
