As a result, the EDO Competition CCR Evolution can get from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.2 seconds, 0 to 200 km/h (124 mph) in 9.7 seconds, and 0 to 300 km/h (186 mph) in 23 seconds. As for the exterior, the tuner offered a new set of wheels with a coat of charcoal paint and an updated front end with auxiliary lights.
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.
By 0–60 mph (97 km/h) (less than 3.0 s) Many elements change how fast the car can accelerate to 60 mph. [ ii ] [ iii ] Tires, elevation above sea level, weight of the driver, testing equipment, weather conditions and surface of testing track all influence these times. [ 3 ]
A Suzuki GSX-R1000 at a drag strip – a 2006 model once recorded a 0 to 60 mph time of 2.35 seconds. This is a list of street legal production motorcycles ranked by acceleration from a standing start, limited to 0 to 60 mph times of under 3.5 seconds, and 1 ⁄ 4-mile times of under 12 seconds.
When equipped with a manual transmission, the DeLorean accelerated from 0 to 60 miles per hour (0 to 97 km/h) in 10.5 seconds as tested by Road & Track magazine. Top speed was claimed at 130 mph (209 km/h), but was tested to be a lacking 110 mph (177 km/h).
Audi claimed the production version of the R8 e-tron was capable of a 0–100 km/h (62 mph) acceleration time of around 4.8 seconds, making it only 0.2 seconds slower than the R8 V8. Top speed was to be limited to 200 km/h (124 mph) to protect the charge of the battery making the performance figures true to the concept.
The trio produce a total output of 760 kilowatts (1,020 hp) and 1,050 newton-metres (770 lb⋅ft), providing the car with a 0 to 60 mph (97 km/h) acceleration of 1.98 seconds and a maximum speed of 200 mph (320 km/h), with a range of 390 miles (630 km).
The kilometre, a unit of length, first appeared in English in 1810, [9] and the compound unit of speed "kilometers per hour" was in use in the US by 1866. [10] "Kilometres per hour" did not begin to be abbreviated in print until many years later, with several different abbreviations existing near-contemporaneously.
