Default Typical performance figures

Anyone know what they are?

I know the 0-60 is typically 5.5 secs.

What about 30-70 through gears
0-100, 1/4 mile etc..

This may have some of the stuff you're after.



Also, I wouldn't say 5.5 to 60 is typical. More like high 5s.

Can you do a higher resolution/quality as when I expand the image it blurs so can't read the figures!

many thanks.

The full size image should be good enough - it's 2550x1755 !

(Click the image, then choose the size you want).

Interesting read that strange that they have the bit about "all cars are tested with BP Unleaded Fuel..." I can understand this when being used for comparison with all other cars, but you would have thought that they'd test all performance cars with Super unleaded / Optimax, as surely this is the norm where its available Even so, they still managed to get 0-60mph of 5.6s

They got the gear figures wrong.

3rd - 90mph at 9k rpm - Yup sounds right
4th - 100mph at 9krm - Errm Nope! goes up to 115 or so.

Well spotted! Note how they contradict themselves by quoting an 80-100 time in 3rd !
