Most 1 liter cars with 70 ponies take 11-13 seconds to hit 60...

Anything that can do the job in ten seconds is quick enough. Small cars that do 60 in 6 typically have bloody expensive turbocharged motors that drink gas like nobody's business, shred engine mounts and CV Joints, and are a pain to maintain down the line. I just don't see the appeal for something that's being marketed as an eco-commuter that costs as much as a secondhand Corolla (0-60, 9 seconds with a stick)
