Fastest 0-60 per person (what car)

[keebz91]

Had some time to myself the other day and I got thinking about this...

Which car gets passengers to 60 the quickest? It’s hard to explain exactly what I mean so I think its easier to look at the basic formula: 0-60 time of the car divided by the number of seats in the car.

(Lets keep things simple and ignore the added weight of passengers which would increase the 0-60 time, and use manufacturers claimed figures.)

I originally though Mclaren F1 (2.9/3) at 0.96667. But I’m guessing there are some large 5 seaters that can easily get there in less than 5 seconds?

So, what car is it?

Can you get 7 in the new E63 estate?

A T25 Impreza can hit 60 in under 4 and carry 5 [that right?], so can an Evo 360.

[Loplop]

Can you get 4 in an R35 GT-R?

There's also the RIPS 1340hp Nissan Stagea...

That is in Sheffield?

EDIT; seen the London on the bus! Looks like it is in Sheffield though.

If we discount the bus, its got to be the Diablo limousine in Team America

R63 AMG, 0-60 in 4.9 seconds divided by 7, so that's 0.7.

Are you counting the E55/E63 with it's '7' seats?

[kambites]

Ignoring buses, the seven seater R-class AMG must do quite well. 4.9/7 = 0.7

Or maybe one of the super-SUVs if any of them have seven seats?

The F1 Espace with the seats put back in?
I bet the Goodwood transit with the XJ220 running gear could fit a fair few people in the back...

[Loplop]

The SuperVeyron is expected to do the sprint in around 1.8 seconds.

0.9 ratio.

[Herbs]

Audi Q7 6.0 will carry 7 and do it in 5.5 giving a 0.79 ratio

[6fire]

I had a bike once which would supposedly do the 0-60 sprint in 2.6 seconds. It seated the rider and pillion, so 1.3 secs/person in theory.

I'd wager the Brabus GV12 or G65 AMG would do well, seating 9.




Edited to remove my ignorance..

Not entirely sure a bendy-bus will do 60 mph, will it?

Red Victor

An Arab's 1000hp, 7-seater Nissan Patrol?

[Contigo]

7 seater M5 Touring (got the bench) gets me there in 4.8 Seconds. Can I collect my winnings?

Standard cars though? Otherwise anything could be an aftermarket grenade spec engine.

The X5 M can be had with 7 seats and quotes 4.7 to 100 km/h. If you say 4.5 to 60 then you get 0.64.

Defender 110

0-60 in 12 seconds

12 passengers

Not too shabby
