Dude, it states in the test results:
1/4-mile (sec. @ mph) 13.5 @ 101.0
It also says the following:
'Best launch was achieved without using launch control (LC), though the technique was very similar to that of launch control. The 228's LC is really just a metered power brake. We used brake torque to launch but metered the throttle carefully to achieve less wheelspin than LC produced. Best runs were using automatic shifting. Stunning power from the four-cylinder; makes the six seem utterly pointless"..
