Land Rover Discovery 2.0 SD4 240 vs Honda Pilot 3.5 V6 253

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Land Rover Discovery 2.0 SD4 240 is the quicker car, covering it in 15.62 s at 85.5 mph against the Honda Pilot 3.5 V6 253’s 16.99 s — a margin of 1.37 s. To 60 mph the Land Rover Discovery 2.0 SD4 240 takes 7.19 s and the Honda Pilot 3.5 V6 253 8.96 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 Land Rover Discovery 2.0 SD4 240 or the Honda Pilot 3.5 V6 253 faster?
The Land Rover Discovery 2.0 SD4 240. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 15.62 s to the Honda Pilot 3.5 V6 253's 16.99 s, a margin of 1.37 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 7.19 s against 8.96 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Land Rover Discovery 2.0 SD4 240 0-60 time?
The Land Rover Discovery 2.0 SD4 240 reaches 60 mph in 7.19 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 15.62 s at 85.5 mph.
What is the Honda Pilot 3.5 V6 253 0-60 time?
The Honda Pilot 3.5 V6 253 reaches 60 mph in 8.96 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 16.99 s at 82.2 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Land Rover Discovery 2.0 SD4 240 trips the lights at 85.5 mph and the Honda Pilot 3.5 V6 253 at 82.2 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 Land Rover Discovery 2.0 SD4 240 and 2 of 2 for the Honda Pilot 3.5 V6 253. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
