Kia Niro 1.6 GDI 104 vs Audi Q2 1.0 TFSI 116

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Audi Q2 1.0 TFSI 116 is the quicker car, covering it in 17.19 s at 80.0 mph against the Kia Niro 1.6 GDI 104’s 17.79 s — a margin of 0.60 s. To 60 mph the Audi Q2 1.0 TFSI 116 takes 9.74 s and the Kia Niro 1.6 GDI 104 10.33 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 Kia Niro 1.6 GDI 104 or the Audi Q2 1.0 TFSI 116 faster?
The Audi Q2 1.0 TFSI 116. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 17.19 s to the Kia Niro 1.6 GDI 104's 17.79 s, a margin of 0.60 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 9.74 s against 10.33 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Kia Niro 1.6 GDI 104 0-60 time?
The Kia Niro 1.6 GDI 104 reaches 60 mph in 10.33 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 17.79 s at 76.4 mph.
What is the Audi Q2 1.0 TFSI 116 0-60 time?
The Audi Q2 1.0 TFSI 116 reaches 60 mph in 9.74 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 17.19 s at 80.0 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Kia Niro 1.6 GDI 104 trips the lights at 76.4 mph and the Audi Q2 1.0 TFSI 116 at 80.0 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 — 2 of 2 for the Kia Niro 1.6 GDI 104 and 2 of 2 for the Audi Q2 1.0 TFSI 116. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
