What is the actual 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the Teana 2.0 naturally aspirated engine?
2 Answers
The Teana model equipped with a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine achieves a 0-100 km/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 1456 to 1511kg. The 2021 Teana 2.0L model features a CVT continuously variable transmission and is powered by a 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum torque of 197 Nm and a maximum power of 115kW. It requires 95-octane gasoline and comes with 205/65R16 tires. Factors affecting the 0-100 km/h acceleration time of a vehicle include: Torque: Torque generally indicates how much force the engine can produce. The greater the torque, the more force is available to propel the vehicle, resulting in faster acceleration. For example, the Audi R8 has a maximum torque of 570 Nm and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 3.1 seconds, while the BMW 6 Series GT has a maximum torque of 400 Nm and a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 6.5 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission acts as a medium for power delivery, inevitably involving power loss. The higher the transmission efficiency, the better the 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 called the power-to-weight ratio (measured in Hp/T). A higher power-to-weight ratio results in faster acceleration. For example, the Audi R8 has a power-to-weight ratio of 373 Hp/T, while the BMW 5 Series has a power-to-weight ratio of 108 Hp/T.
I've driven the Teana 2.0 naturally aspirated model several times, and the actual 0-100 km/h acceleration is generally around 11 seconds, with a half-second variation being quite normal. Road conditions during testing are crucial—for example, paved roads and gravel roads yield different results. In hot weather, the engine might be slightly slower due to reduced efficiency from high temperatures. Acceleration becomes more sluggish with more passengers or a fully loaded trunk. Safety comes first, after all—this car isn't for speed but for comfort, with soft seats, good sound insulation, and a fatigue-free experience on long drives. It's adequate for city starts and overtaking, and stable on highways. If it feels slow, it might be due to overdue maintenance, like worn spark plugs or old engine oil. Regular check-ups are recommended to prevent minor issues from escalating. Overall, the data is reliable, and many buyers choose it for its high cost-performance ratio and dependability.
