The numbers:
– 0-60mph : 2.8 sec
– 0-100mph : 5.2 sec
– 0-150mph : 10.6 sec (Veyron : 10.2 sec)
– 0-190mph : 21.4 sec (Veyron : 19.4 sec)
– 1/4 mile : 10.2 sec (Veyron 10.1 sec)
– Standing km : 18,2 sec (Veyron 18,0 sec)
– Dry circuit : 1min06sec8 (Veyron 1min08sec5), with some wet patches, so best could be better according to Autocar.
– Wet circuit : 1min20sec5 (Veyron 1min11sec6)
– Skidpan : 1.22g
Regarding the lap time: “The Veyron lapped the track in 1min 8.5sec while Ferrari’s F12 managed it in 1min 8.6sec. The P1 might have lapped even faster but for two damp patches; one in a high-speed bend, the other in a heavy braking zone.”
And a comparison to other lap times Autocar has achieved:
I’m not set on the looks, but it sure makes a great sound. I bet the performance will be pretty close to the P1, but not as quick around race courses (maybe I’m a little biased). The bottom line – we’re all better off with competition pushing each brand to develop a stronger car.
