Questions

Is the Land Rover Discovery 2.0 SD4 240 or the Land Rover Freelander - LR2 3.2 230 faster?
The Land Rover Discovery 2.0 SD4 240. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 15.62 s to the Land Rover Freelander - LR2 3.2 230's 16.04 s, a margin of 0.42 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 7.19 s against 7.82 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 Land Rover Freelander - LR2 3.2 230 0-60 time?
The Land Rover Freelander - LR2 3.2 230 reaches 60 mph in 7.82 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 16.04 s at 85.4 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 Land Rover Freelander - LR2 3.2 230 at 85.4 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 Land Rover Discovery 2.0 SD4 240 and 2 of 2 for the Land Rover Freelander - LR2 3.2 230. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
