Peugeot 3008 BlueHDi 130 (Mk2) vs Ford Explorer 3.5 V6 290

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Ford Explorer 3.5 V6 290 is the quicker car, covering it in 15.33 s at 90.8 mph against the Peugeot 3008 BlueHDi 130 (Mk2)’s 17.33 s — a margin of 2.00 s. To 60 mph the Ford Explorer 3.5 V6 290 takes 6.86 s and the Peugeot 3008 BlueHDi 130 (Mk2) 9.93 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 Peugeot 3008 BlueHDi 130 (Mk2) or the Ford Explorer 3.5 V6 290 faster?
The Ford Explorer 3.5 V6 290. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 15.33 s to the Peugeot 3008 BlueHDi 130 (Mk2)'s 17.33 s, a margin of 2.00 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 6.86 s against 9.93 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Peugeot 3008 BlueHDi 130 (Mk2) 0-60 time?
The Peugeot 3008 BlueHDi 130 (Mk2) reaches 60 mph in 9.93 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 17.33 s at 79.6 mph.
What is the Ford Explorer 3.5 V6 290 0-60 time?
The Ford Explorer 3.5 V6 290 reaches 60 mph in 6.86 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 15.33 s at 90.8 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Peugeot 3008 BlueHDi 130 (Mk2) trips the lights at 79.6 mph and the Ford Explorer 3.5 V6 290 at 90.8 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 Peugeot 3008 BlueHDi 130 (Mk2) and 2 of 2 for the Ford Explorer 3.5 V6 290. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
