The Mercedes-Benz B-Class (W246) 200 156. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 16.03 s to the Mercedes-Benz C Class C 160 129's 16.76 s, a margin of 0.73 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 7.79 s against 8.84 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Mercedes-Benz C Class C 160 129 0-60 time?
The Mercedes-Benz C Class C 160 129 reaches 60 mph in 8.84 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 16.76 s at 83.1 mph.
What is the Mercedes-Benz B-Class (W246) 200 156 0-60 time?
The Mercedes-Benz B-Class (W246) 200 156 reaches 60 mph in 7.79 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 16.03 s at 88.0 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Mercedes-Benz C Class C 160 129 trips the lights at 83.1 mph and the Mercedes-Benz B-Class (W246) 200 156 at 88.0 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 Mercedes-Benz C Class C 160 129 and 2 of 2 for the Mercedes-Benz B-Class (W246) 200 156. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
