Not sure what the spec's are for the Auto gearbox, all I know it's pretty quick and definitely doesn't feel like 5 seconds.

I tried once and i did 6,4s. But I think I can get a better time.

The official time is 5.9 seconds

I don't care to much about the real number, my butt-dyno says it's plenty fast. Entering the highway all other cars look really small in your rear-view mirror, really fast. After that they all think they need to race you, so they all come and overtake you at least 10 kph over the speed limit.

Tried just once, with no preparation, and I did 6.6!

On Youtube you can find some 5.5 stock cars, automatics. You just need a right outdoor temperature, warm rubber, warm engine and a good launch technique with TC off while finding the sweet spot with your RPMs. Or eventually you can do it downhill :lol:

I think you might watched Ecoboost's in US version where the acceleration is 5.2s , because of some EU restriction the US version has better performance than EU

Still no officially number for EB Auto?

And remember guys US 60 mph you probably has seen on video isn't quite 100 km/h...

 

[friendgr]

Correct. 60mph = 96 km/h

Yeah it's mainly the end gearing 3.31 instead of 3.55 that the US version has. I'm seriously considering changing them. It's not an expensive mod.

EU Ecoboost has actually slightly more hp and torque than US version. We also have 3.55 gears since all our cars come with Performance Package as a standard.

The Euro-spec EB Fastback Manual has 3.31 gears.

Oh, makes sense then, didn't know. Why did they decide so?
