Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2) vs MG ZS 1.5 VTi-TECH

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2) is the quicker car, covering it in 16.58 s at 84.0 mph against the MG ZS 1.5 VTi-TECH’s 17.59 s — a margin of 1.01 s. To 60 mph the Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2) takes 8.41 s and the MG ZS 1.5 VTi-TECH 9.92 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 Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2) or the MG ZS 1.5 VTi-TECH faster?
The Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2). Over a standing quarter mile it runs 16.58 s to the MG ZS 1.5 VTi-TECH's 17.59 s, a margin of 1.01 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 8.41 s against 9.92 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2) 0-60 time?
The Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2) reaches 60 mph in 8.41 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 16.58 s at 84.0 mph.
What is the MG ZS 1.5 VTi-TECH 0-60 time?
The MG ZS 1.5 VTi-TECH reaches 60 mph in 9.92 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 17.59 s at 79.5 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Volkswagen Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2) trips the lights at 84.0 mph and the MG ZS 1.5 VTi-TECH at 79.5 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 Tiguan 2.0 TDI 150 (Mk2) and 2 of 2 for the MG ZS 1.5 VTi-TECH. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
