Many low hp cars can get to 60 around 4 seconds thanks to turbos and efficient gearboxes but many run out of steam afterwards because of power deficit. That's why I look at 0-100, 0-150 mph results, and I look at delta between 0-60 test and 5-60 test for turbo lag (EVs suffer the least in this)

Just for s. and giggles, I added two supercars to the list. You can see how much faster 720s compared to Huracan at high speeds even though 0-60 tells the opposite. Although Lambo and Mclaren both even until 100MPH, 720s disappears into stratosphere above 100MPH. For mclaren, It takes 17.5s to reach 180MPH while huracan needs another 5.7 seconds to reach that speed.
You clearly seriously underestimate what it takes to make 125mph in 1/4 mile...
