Hii all I am creating this thread as I could not find a similar thread where to post this.
This question seems to be constantly in mind (title of the thread). Here are some figures to convey an idea of what I am talking about-
Tata Nexon diesel with 110 bhp and 260nm of torque with 83bhp/ton and 199nm torque/ton does 0-100 dash in 13.75 seconds and a baleno rs with 102 bhp and 150nm of torque with 106bhp/ton and 156nm of torque/ton does the 0-100 dash in 10.25 seconds (data is taken from ACI reviews).
My question is that having a difference if about 30bhp/ton is more significant than a difference of about 43nm of torque /per ton as timings show so what is the real use of that extra torque in nexon?
Please take note my comparison does not involve high tech dual clutch gearbox carrying cars like gt tsi because the lighting quick upshifts do shave of a lot of time and hence quicker acceleration .
