Mazda CX-3 1.5 105 vs Acura RDX SH-AWD

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Acura RDX SH-AWD is the quicker car, covering it in 15.15 s at 93.8 mph against the Mazda CX-3 1.5 105’s 17.82 s — a margin of 2.67 s. To 60 mph the Acura RDX SH-AWD takes 6.64 s and the Mazda CX-3 1.5 105 10.68 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 Mazda CX-3 1.5 105 or the Acura RDX SH-AWD faster?
The Acura RDX SH-AWD. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 15.15 s to the Mazda CX-3 1.5 105's 17.82 s, a margin of 2.67 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 6.64 s against 10.68 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Mazda CX-3 1.5 105 0-60 time?
The Mazda CX-3 1.5 105 reaches 60 mph in 10.68 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 17.82 s at 75.4 mph.
What is the Acura RDX SH-AWD 0-60 time?
The Acura RDX SH-AWD reaches 60 mph in 6.64 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 15.15 s at 93.8 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Mazda CX-3 1.5 105 trips the lights at 75.4 mph and the Acura RDX SH-AWD at 93.8 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 Mazda CX-3 1.5 105 and 9 of 9 for the Acura RDX SH-AWD. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
