The time it takes a vehicle to accelerate from 0 to 60 miles per hour (97 km/h or 27 m/s), often said as just "zero to sixty" or "nought to sixty", is a commonly used performance measure for automotive acceleration in the United States and the United Kingdom. In the rest of the world, 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62.1 mph) is used.
The 5.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine. In early development, the car was fitted with a 4.7-litre V8 engine with fixed-vane twin-turbochargers, [8] but the engine was replaced with an in-house developed 5.0-litre V8 engine and fitted with twin-turbochargers which generates a maximum power output of 706 kW (960 PS; 947 hp) at 6,900 rpm and 1,100 N⋅m (811 lbf⋅ft) of torque at 4,000 rpm.

It has been claimed that the Owl can accelerate from 0-97 km/h (60 mph) in 1.72 seconds, 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 1.9 seconds, 0-186 mph (300 km/h) in 10.6 seconds, and can attain a top speed of 413 km/h (257 mph), which would make it the fastest accelerating production car in the world.

The P1 GTR can accelerate from 0–97 km/h (60 mph) in under 2.8 seconds, and will go on to reach a limited top speed of 349 km/h (217 mph). Additionally, the P1 GTR will brake from 97 km/h (60 mph) to 0 in 85 ft (26 m), and can corner at 1.54 G long with pulling a lateral acceleration of 2.5 g on the skidpad. [48] [49]
The Lotus Elise is a sports car conceived in early 1994 and released in September 1996 by the British manufacturer Lotus Cars.A two-seater roadster with a rear mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout, the Elise has a fibreglass body shell atop its bonded extruded aluminium chassis that provides a rigid platform for the suspension, while keeping weight and production costs to a minimum.
