Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Nissan Altima Coupe is the quicker car,
covering it in 13.84 s at
100.9 mph against the Hyundai Kona 1.6 177’s
15.47 s — a margin of
1.63 s. To 60 mph the Nissan Altima Coupe takes
5.29 s and the Hyundai Kona 1.6 177
7.01 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.

Each car is trimmed to its own published figures —
2/2 for the Hyundai Kona 1.6 177,
9/10 for the Nissan Altima Coupe —
so a heavier car can still be the quicker one if that is what it tests.
Is the Hyundai Kona 1.6 177 or the Nissan Altima Coupe faster?
The Nissan Altima Coupe. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 13.84 s to the Hyundai Kona 1.6 177's 15.47 s, a margin of 1.63 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 5.29 s against 7.01 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Hyundai Kona 1.6 177 0-60 time?
The Hyundai Kona 1.6 177 reaches 60 mph in 7.01 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 15.47 s at 86.1 mph.
What is the Nissan Altima Coupe 0-60 time?
The Nissan Altima Coupe reaches 60 mph in 5.29 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 13.84 s at 100.9 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Hyundai Kona 1.6 177 trips the lights at 86.1 mph and the Nissan Altima Coupe at 100.9 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 Hyundai Kona 1.6 177 and 9 of 10 for the Nissan Altima Coupe. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
