Renault Megane TCe 140 (Mk4) vs Peugeot 208 1.2 PureTech 130

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Peugeot 208 1.2 PureTech 130 is the quicker car, covering it in 16.11 s at 85.8 mph against the Renault Megane TCe 140 (Mk4)’s 16.60 s — a margin of 0.49 s. To 60 mph the Peugeot 208 1.2 PureTech 130 takes 7.84 s and the Renault Megane TCe 140 (Mk4) 8.49 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 Megane TCe 140 (Mk4) or the Peugeot 208 1.2 PureTech 130 faster?
The Peugeot 208 1.2 PureTech 130. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 16.11 s to the Renault Megane TCe 140 (Mk4)'s 16.60 s, a margin of 0.49 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 7.84 s against 8.49 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Renault Megane TCe 140 (Mk4) 0-60 time?
The Renault Megane TCe 140 (Mk4) reaches 60 mph in 8.49 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 16.60 s at 82.9 mph.
What is the Peugeot 208 1.2 PureTech 130 0-60 time?
The Peugeot 208 1.2 PureTech 130 reaches 60 mph in 7.84 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 16.11 s at 85.8 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Renault Megane TCe 140 (Mk4) trips the lights at 82.9 mph and the Peugeot 208 1.2 PureTech 130 at 85.8 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 Renault Megane TCe 140 (Mk4) and 2 of 2 for the Peugeot 208 1.2 PureTech 130. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
