Renault Clio 197 vs Dacia Sandero Stepway 1.6 16v 105

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Renault Clio 197 is the quicker car, covering it in 15.21 s at 92.0 mph against the Dacia Sandero Stepway 1.6 16v 105’s 18.36 s — a margin of 3.15 s. To 60 mph the Renault Clio 197 takes 6.65 s and the Dacia Sandero Stepway 1.6 16v 105 11.09 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 Renault Clio 197 or the Dacia Sandero Stepway 1.6 16v 105 faster?
The Renault Clio 197. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 15.21 s to the Dacia Sandero Stepway 1.6 16v 105's 18.36 s, a margin of 3.15 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 6.65 s against 11.09 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Renault Clio 197 0-60 time?
The Renault Clio 197 reaches 60 mph in 6.65 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 15.21 s at 92.0 mph.
What is the Dacia Sandero Stepway 1.6 16v 105 0-60 time?
The Dacia Sandero Stepway 1.6 16v 105 reaches 60 mph in 11.09 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 18.36 s at 76.1 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Renault Clio 197 trips the lights at 92.0 mph and the Dacia Sandero Stepway 1.6 16v 105 at 76.1 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 — 9 of 9 for the Renault Clio 197 and 2 of 2 for the Dacia Sandero Stepway 1.6 16v 105. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
