Ford Mondeo 2.3 vs Aston Martin Vanquish Mk III

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Aston Martin Vanquish Mk III is the quicker car, covering it in 10.80 s at 131.8 mph against the Ford Mondeo 2.3’s 18.04 s — a margin of 7.24 s. To 60 mph the Aston Martin Vanquish Mk III takes 2.96 s and the Ford Mondeo 2.3 10.39 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 Mondeo 2.3 or the Aston Martin Vanquish Mk III faster?
The Aston Martin Vanquish Mk III. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 10.80 s to the Ford Mondeo 2.3's 18.04 s, a margin of 7.24 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 2.96 s against 10.39 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Ford Mondeo 2.3 0-60 time?
The Ford Mondeo 2.3 reaches 60 mph in 10.39 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 18.04 s at 81.0 mph.
What is the Aston Martin Vanquish Mk III 0-60 time?
The Aston Martin Vanquish Mk III reaches 60 mph in 2.96 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 10.80 s at 131.8 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Ford Mondeo 2.3 trips the lights at 81.0 mph and the Aston Martin Vanquish Mk III at 131.8 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 Mondeo 2.3 and 11 of 11 for the Aston Martin Vanquish Mk III. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
