How long does it take the 2007 Cobalt SS Supercharged to go from 0-60?

My son wants a car for his 18th birthday, and I found a 2007 Cobalt SS Supercharged in my price range that I think he would like.

That’s such a nice birthday gift to give your son! The 2007

Chevy Cobalt SS Supercharged

can go from 0-60 within 6.6 seconds. This is significantly faster than the other Chevy Cobalt styles, which take a full second more on average to go from 0-60.

However, a car with fast acceleration might not be the vehicle to buy for a teenager. Until he learns more about driving, it might be best to get your son a car with a longer acceleration time. Younger drivers are often riskier, so fast acceleration time might encourage reckless behavior.

Risky driving also makes teenagers expensive to insure. It’s a lot easier to use the

app to search for a policy that works for you since you’ll be able to compare rates from different insurers in a matter of minutes. To learn more, download the app and create a free account.
