Renault Captur 1.3 TCe 154 vs Ford Kuga 2.0 TDCi 180
Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Renault Captur 1.3 TCe 154 is the quicker car,
covering it in 16.09 s at
86.8 mph against the Ford Kuga 2.0 TDCi 180’s
16.72 s — a margin of
0.63 s. To 60 mph the Renault Captur 1.3 TCe 154 takes
7.75 s and the Ford Kuga 2.0 TDCi 180
8.76 s.
Simulated, not measured — computed from each car’s published kerb mass,
rated power and drivetrain, then fitted to its own published acceleration figures.

Each car is trimmed to its own published figures —
2/2 for the Renault Captur 1.3 TCe 154,
2/2 for the Ford Kuga 2.0 TDCi 180 —
so a heavier car can still be the quicker one if that is what it tests.
Is the Renault Captur 1.3 TCe 154 or the Ford Kuga 2.0 TDCi 180 faster?
The Renault Captur 1.3 TCe 154. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 16.09 s to the Ford Kuga 2.0 TDCi 180's 16.72 s, a margin of 0.63 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 7.75 s against 8.76 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Renault Captur 1.3 TCe 154 0-60 time?
The Renault Captur 1.3 TCe 154 reaches 60 mph in 7.75 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 16.09 s at 86.8 mph.
What is the Ford Kuga 2.0 TDCi 180 0-60 time?
The Ford Kuga 2.0 TDCi 180 reaches 60 mph in 8.76 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 16.72 s at 81.1 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Renault Captur 1.3 TCe 154 trips the lights at 86.8 mph and the Ford Kuga 2.0 TDCi 180 at 81.1 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 Renault Captur 1.3 TCe 154 and 2 of 2 for the Ford Kuga 2.0 TDCi 180. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
