Kia Picanto 1.0 67 vs Mitsubishi Mirage 1.2 MIVEC 78
Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Mitsubishi Mirage 1.2 MIVEC 78 is the quicker car,
covering it in 18.55 s at
76.4 mph against the Kia Picanto 1.0 67’s
20.81 s — a margin of
2.26 s. To 60 mph the Mitsubishi Mirage 1.2 MIVEC 78 takes
11.49 s and the Kia Picanto 1.0 67
15.59 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 Kia Picanto 1.0 67,
2/2 for the Mitsubishi Mirage 1.2 MIVEC 78 —
so a heavier car can still be the quicker one if that is what it tests.
Is the Kia Picanto 1.0 67 or the Mitsubishi Mirage 1.2 MIVEC 78 faster?
The Mitsubishi Mirage 1.2 MIVEC 78. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 18.55 s to the Kia Picanto 1.0 67's 20.81 s, a margin of 2.26 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 11.49 s against 15.59 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Kia Picanto 1.0 67 0-60 time?
The Kia Picanto 1.0 67 reaches 60 mph in 15.59 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 20.81 s at 68.5 mph.
What is the Mitsubishi Mirage 1.2 MIVEC 78 0-60 time?
The Mitsubishi Mirage 1.2 MIVEC 78 reaches 60 mph in 11.49 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 18.55 s at 76.4 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Kia Picanto 1.0 67 trips the lights at 68.5 mph and the Mitsubishi Mirage 1.2 MIVEC 78 at 76.4 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 Picanto 1.0 67 and 2 of 2 for the Mitsubishi Mirage 1.2 MIVEC 78. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
