The H3 performance is comparable with Touareg V6, LR3 V6, Jeep Wrangler, Montero; Fractions of a second differences in published 0-60 times are meaningless.

Sorry but I have to disagree. 2 of the 4 trucks you mentioned have a V8 option. The key word there is option.
I don’t think many people would have chosen the I5 over say a Hemi if it were available.
I can live with poor performance if I chose to go with the I5 over some other offering. 2 of the cars you mentioned have options for a V8 (except the Jeep, and the Montero). I think most would agree having a 2nd engine option would have been great.
Let me assure you again, I could give a rat’s ass about 0-60 times. Unfortunately there is really no other way to discus everyday driving statistics.
Also these comparisons are not fractions of a second.
The Jeep posts a 9.1 second 0-60, over 3 seconds better then the H3
The Montero posts a 10.3 second, still 2 seconds better than the H3
On a side note I have an 04 6cyl. Wrangler with a AEM intake kit and I don’t believe for one second this thing can do 0-60 in 9 seconds.
