What is the 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the GAC Trumpchi GS8?
1 Answers
According to official data, the GAC Trumpchi GS8 accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.85 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. For comparison, the Hongqi HS5 has a maximum torque of 340 Nm and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 10 seconds. The GAC Trumpchi GS8 has a torque of 400 Nm and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.85 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission is the medium for power transfer, inevitably involving 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 GAC Trumpchi GS8 is equipped with an 8-speed automatic transmission (AT). Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is called the power-to-weight ratio (unit: Hp/T). The higher the power-to-weight ratio, the faster the acceleration. The Hongqi HS5 has a power-to-weight ratio of 127 Hp/T and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 10 seconds. The GAC Trumpchi GS8 has a power-to-weight ratio of 138.8 Hp/T and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 9.85 seconds.
