What is the 0-100 km/h acceleration time for the Atenza?
1 Answers
According to official data, the Atenza comes with two engine displacements: 2.5T and 2.0T. The 2.5T model achieves a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 8.6 seconds, while the 2.0T model takes 9.3 seconds. Factors influencing a vehicle's 0-100 km/h acceleration time include: Torque: Torque, in simple terms, represents the force available. The greater the torque, the stronger the force pushing the vehicle, resulting in faster acceleration. For comparison, the Superb in the same segment has a maximum torque of 250 Nm and a 0-100 km/h time of 8.7 seconds. The Atenza 2.5T delivers 252 Nm of torque and accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 8.6 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission acts as the medium for power delivery, inevitably involving power loss. Higher transmission efficiency leads to better acceleration performance. Generally, transmission efficiency ranks as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The Atenza is equipped with a 6-speed automatic transmission. Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is known as the power-to-weight ratio (measured in Hp/T). A higher power-to-weight ratio results in faster acceleration. For example, the Superb has a power-to-weight ratio of 105 Hp/T and a 0-100 km/h time of 8.7 seconds. The Atenza 2.5T boasts a power-to-weight ratio of 124 Hp/T, achieving 0-100 km/h in 8.6 seconds.
