I kind of want to test my lawn mower against the sarka, in the quarter mile. Might be close. Wtf@23 seconds lol.

Top Gear: DayZ edition. Interesting stuff. Thank you @-Gews-.

Where did you test? NWA

NWAF is too small for top speed tests, I tested on the coastal highway but I ran out of room with some cars, so I made my own map to confirm the "Gunter 2" and "Sarka 120" top speeds. It's entirely asphalt with a flat canyon 20 km long.

Lots of people had Gunter up 180, 190 km/h+ and DayZ Wiki listed the top speed as 192 km/h. But that's only possible with gravity assist. On flat roads it stops accelerating at 173 km/h.

Also, I discovered what seems to be an absolute limit of 320 km/h vehicle speed. Jumping from a car at this speed seems to have no ill effects! I don't know why they added such a feature!

They are pretty weak:

Sarka 120............50 hp
Ada 4x4...............72 hp
Olga 24...............99 hp
Gunter 2............134 hp

Online sources seem to say 19 or 20 seconds for 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) for Skoda 120 (Sarka somewhat slower), and top speed of 119 km/h is much less than claimed 140.

For the Lada Niva 1600, it's 22-23 seconds for 0-100 km/h (Ada somewhat faster). Top speed slightly higher but not much, 138 km/h compared to 130-132 claimed.

GAZ-24 I'm not sure about, the game performance matches some car simulation programs, but I think "Olga" is faster than real life. Most sources say it took 20+ seconds 0-100 km/h. Top speed matches because of redline.

"Gunter" is slower than real life in both acceleration and top speed. They gave it the Mk2 GTI specs for the 2.0 16v engine. Real life Mk2 GTI did 8.4 seconds 0-60, 16.8 second 1/4-mile at 85 mph, and top speed was about 210 km/h.


I noticed that there's a problem, the horsepower is not making it to the ground. Or the cars have too high drag coefficients. Not sure which. But 134 hp even with 20% loss for drivetrain etc, should be enough to push the Gunter to 211 km/h. Instead it seems like almost half its horsepower is disappearing.

Right, and torque/horsepower is the most important thing for dayz.  Those top end speeds are rare in dire need.  When you steal a survivor's car you need to be able to haul ass! 

The Olga, with high horsepower, the ability to cross most terrain, large payload capacity, 4 doors, and clear 3rd-gear automobile make it the best vanilla car, imo.
