Land Rover Discovery 2.5 113 vs Toyota Prado / Meru 3.0d 125

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Toyota Prado / Meru 3.0d 125 is the quicker car, covering it in 19.77 s at 71.6 mph against the Land Rover Discovery 2.5 113’s 20.36 s — a margin of 0.59 s. To 60 mph the Toyota Prado / Meru 3.0d 125 takes 13.57 s and the Land Rover Discovery 2.5 113 16.12 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 2.5 113 or the Toyota Prado / Meru 3.0d 125 faster?
The Toyota Prado / Meru 3.0d 125. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 19.77 s to the Land Rover Discovery 2.5 113's 20.36 s, a margin of 0.59 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 13.57 s against 16.12 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Land Rover Discovery 2.5 113 0-60 time?
The Land Rover Discovery 2.5 113 reaches 60 mph in 16.12 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 20.36 s at 67.1 mph.
What is the Toyota Prado / Meru 3.0d 125 0-60 time?
The Toyota Prado / Meru 3.0d 125 reaches 60 mph in 13.57 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 19.77 s at 71.6 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Land Rover Discovery 2.5 113 trips the lights at 67.1 mph and the Toyota Prado / Meru 3.0d 125 at 71.6 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 2.5 113 and 2 of 2 for the Toyota Prado / Meru 3.0d 125. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
