Modeling Acceleration and Deceleration Rates for Two-Lane Rural Highways Using Global Positioning System Data

Table 5

Performance indicators for passenger car.

Type of vehicle	Max power (bhp)	Torque (Nm)	Acceleration	Displacement capacity (cc)	Fuel economy (kml)
Hatchback	64.1–74	113–190	0–100 km/h in 12–18.7 s	1172–1405	16.7–26.55
Sedan	67.04–70	159.8–170	0–100 km/h in 10.6–17 s	1120–1364	24
Sports utility vehicles	62. 14–75	195	0–100 km/h in 30 s	2523–2596	12–17

Note. 0–100 km/h in 12–18.7 s.  = 12 to 18.7 seconds is required to reach the speed 100 km/h from 0; 0–100 km/h in 10.6–17 s.  = 10.6 to 17 seconds is required to reach the speed 100 km/h from 0; and 0–100 km/h in 30 s. = 30 s is required to reach 100 km/h from 0.
