Look no further than the forthcoming 2018 Ford Mustang GT, which Ford claims will sprint to 60 mph in less than 4 seconds with its 460-horsepower V-8 engine, 10-speed automatic transmission and optional Performance Package. It got us thinking: What other cars reach 60 mph with equivalent quickness?

We combed through automaker performance and acceleration specs and our own test data searching for cars that can run from zero-to-60 mph in around 4 seconds. As you can see from the list below, there’s no shortage of models — or body styles — that meet the mark, and they’re available across a wide range of starting prices (all prices include a destination charge).
