Is the Vauxhall Astra Estate 1.4 90 or the Nissan Qashqai 1.6 115 faster?
The Nissan Qashqai 1.6 115. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 18.10 s to the Vauxhall Astra Estate 1.4 90's 18.89 s, a margin of 0.79 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 10.75 s against 12.05 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Vauxhall Astra Estate 1.4 90 0-60 time?
The Vauxhall Astra Estate 1.4 90 reaches 60 mph in 12.05 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 18.89 s at 75.3 mph.
What is the Nissan Qashqai 1.6 115 0-60 time?
The Nissan Qashqai 1.6 115 reaches 60 mph in 10.75 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 18.10 s at 77.9 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Vauxhall Astra Estate 1.4 90 trips the lights at 75.3 mph and the Nissan Qashqai 1.6 115 at 77.9 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 Vauxhall Astra Estate 1.4 90 and 2 of 2 for the Nissan Qashqai 1.6 115. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
