Default HCH2 0-100 km/h measured

For those that are interested, here is a measurement of the acceleration 0-100 km/h on a 2006 HCH2. I did two consecutive runs, in opposite directions, with almost identical result.



This was in gear "S". Honda says it should take 12.1 s, it took little more than 11.2 s.

Thanks for the info.

Relative to the fuel economy I get, the level of acceleration, handling, and overall "performance" in this vehicle actually is impressive to me.

Assuming I did the math right, that means for us non-metric folks, it's 0-60 in 11.0 seconds

Sure it can, but that would mean having to take off your restrictor plate
