What is the 0-100km/h acceleration time for the 2021 Teana 2.0L?
2 Answers
Teana 2.0L model achieves a 0-100km/h acceleration time of 5.9 seconds. The Teana is a mid-size sedan under Dongfeng Nissan, with body dimensions of 4901*1850*1450mm, a wheelbase of 2825mm, a fuel tank capacity of 61.3L, a trunk capacity of 586L, and a curb weight ranging from 1456kg to 1511kg. The 2021 Teana 2.0L model is equipped with a CVT continuously variable transmission and a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum torque of 197Nm and a maximum power of 115kW. It requires 95-octane gasoline and comes with 205/65R16 tires. Factors affecting a vehicle's 0-100km/h acceleration time include: Torque: Torque, in simple terms, indicates how much force is available. The greater the torque, the more force is applied to propel the vehicle, resulting in faster acceleration. For example, the Audi R8 has a maximum torque of 570Nm and accelerates from 0-100km/h in 3.1 seconds, while the BMW 6 Series GT has a maximum torque of 400Nm and achieves 0-100km/h in 6.5 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission acts as a medium for power transfer, inevitably involving power loss. Higher transmission efficiency leads to better acceleration performance. Generally, the ranking of transmission efficiency is as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is referred to as the power-to-weight ratio (measured in Hp/T). A higher power-to-weight ratio results in faster acceleration. For instance, the Audi R8 has a power-to-weight ratio of 373Hp/T, while the BMW 5 Series has a ratio of 108Hp/T.
Having driven many Japanese cars, I specifically researched the data of the 2021 Teana 2.0L. Its 0-100 km/h acceleration time is approximately 9.0 seconds. This figure is based on standard testing conditions, with the engine being a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated unit producing around 150 horsepower, paired with a CVT transmission. In actual driving, you'll notice a smooth start without the sudden burst of turbocharged cars. The smoothness is a highlight, but acceleration is relatively slow, especially when overtaking on highways. Factors affecting acceleration include the car's weight of about 1.4 tons, aerodynamic design, and the transmission's tuning style—prioritizing fuel efficiency and comfort. Compared to the Toyota Camry 2.0L's slightly over 9 seconds, the two are quite similar, but the Teana offers better cabin noise insulation. It's quite handy for daily use, just don't expect any thrilling acceleration.
