Comparison Highlight: The Sport car reaches the target speed (100 km/h) in the shortest time. Since acceleration is inversely proportional to time (a = Δv / t), the Sport car exhibits the highest acceleration during the run.

Observation Principle
In this simulation, we observe Constant Acceleration. As time increases linearly, the final velocity remains the same, but the rate of change is significantly different between vehicle classes.
