What is the actual 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the Lamando 280?

According to official data, the 1.4L model of the Lamando 280 achieves a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 8.5 seconds. Factors affecting a vehicle's 0-100 km/h acceleration time are as follows: Torque: Torque, in layman's terms, indicates how much force is available. The greater the torque, the more force is available to propel the vehicle, resulting in faster acceleration. The maximum torque of the Verano is 250 Nm, with a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 7.7 seconds. The 1.4L Lamando 280 has a torque of 250 Nm and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 8.5 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission is the medium for transferring power 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 1.4L Lamando 280 is equipped with a 7-speed dry dual-clutch 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 Verano has a power-to-weight ratio of 137 Hp/T and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 7.7 seconds. The 1.4L Lamando 280 has a power-to-weight ratio of 109 Hp/T and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 8.5 seconds.
I've been driving the Lamando 280 for almost a year now, and every time I test its 0-100 km/h acceleration, it feels exhilarating. Actual measurements usually show around 7.5 seconds, and I've recorded it several times with a mobile app. It performs most steadily on straight, dry roads, with a strong sense of push-back force. The car is equipped with a 1.4T engine, which has strong explosive power, making the acceleration from start to 100 km/h smooth and seamless. It might be half a second slower on rainy days or when the tires are worn, so it's important to regularly check tire pressure and engine oil condition. In daily city driving, it's particularly agile when starting or overtaking, making commuting both time-saving and safe. Overall, its performance is quite good, and I recommend owners try minor adjustments to the intake and exhaust systems to make acceleration even smoother.
