Which car has the fastest 0-100 km/h acceleration?
1 Answers
Tesla Roadster. The 0-100 km/h acceleration time largely reflects a vehicle's true power performance. Compared to rigid engine parameters, the 0-100 km/h acceleration figure provides a more intuitive understanding for most consumers about the actual power levels of different vehicles. Below are the main factors determining a vehicle's acceleration speed: 1. Wheel power: For a vehicle's power, the commonly seen power and torque parameters from manufacturers or vehicle specifications actually refer to the peak data the engine can achieve under ideal conditions. In daily use, the actual usable data is far less than the officially calibrated figures. 2. Transmission: Simply put, a transmission that can deliver smoother and more continuous shifting under full throttle conditions must have better transmission efficiency. The absence of significant RPM drops between gears prevents power loss, allowing the engine to operate near its maximum power RPM, which is a prerequisite for faster acceleration. 3. Drivetrain: Common front-wheel-drive vehicles often have disadvantages in 0-100 km/h acceleration. It's basic physics: when a vehicle accelerates forward, the inertial force acting on its center of gravity creates a torque that shifts weight to the rear of the vehicle, meaning the rear wheels generate more traction at that moment.
