Volkswagen Passat 2.0 TDI 150 (B8) vs VW Tiguan R

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the VW Tiguan R is the quicker car, covering it in 13.19 s at 102.7 mph against the Volkswagen Passat 2.0 TDI 150 (B8)’s 16.13 s — a margin of 2.94 s. To 60 mph the VW Tiguan R takes 4.57 s and the Volkswagen Passat 2.0 TDI 150 (B8) 7.88 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 Volkswagen Passat 2.0 TDI 150 (B8) or the VW Tiguan R faster?
The VW Tiguan R. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 13.19 s to the Volkswagen Passat 2.0 TDI 150 (B8)'s 16.13 s, a margin of 2.94 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 4.57 s against 7.88 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Volkswagen Passat 2.0 TDI 150 (B8) 0-60 time?
The Volkswagen Passat 2.0 TDI 150 (B8) reaches 60 mph in 7.88 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 16.13 s at 87.6 mph.
What is the VW Tiguan R 0-60 time?
The VW Tiguan R reaches 60 mph in 4.57 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 13.19 s at 102.7 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Volkswagen Passat 2.0 TDI 150 (B8) trips the lights at 87.6 mph and the VW Tiguan R at 102.7 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 Volkswagen Passat 2.0 TDI 150 (B8) and 10 of 10 for the VW Tiguan R. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
