How many seconds does the Elegance take to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h?
1 Answers
According to official data, the 2009 Elegance model accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.5 seconds. Factors affecting a vehicle's 0-100 km/h acceleration time are as follows: Torque: Torque, in layman's terms, represents how much force is available. The greater the torque, the more force is available to propel the vehicle, naturally resulting in faster acceleration. The 2005 Elegance model has a maximum torque of 875 Nm, achieving 0-100 km/h in 6 seconds; the 2009 Elegance model has a maximum torque of 1000 Nm, achieving 0-100 km/h in 5.5 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission is the medium for power delivery and inevitably involves power loss. The higher the transmission efficiency, the better the acceleration performance. Generally, transmission efficiency ranks as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The 2009 Elegance model is equipped with a 6-speed automatic manual transmission. Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is called the power-to-weight ratio (unit is Hp/T). The higher the power-to-weight ratio, the faster the acceleration. The 2005 Elegance model has a power-to-weight ratio of 172.1 Hp/T, achieving 0-100 km/h in 6 seconds; the 2009 Elegance model has a power-to-weight ratio of 200.4 Hp/T, achieving 0-100 km/h in 5.5 seconds.
