Off the line, the 750i xDrive hits 100 km/h in 4.03 s versus 4.67 s for the Panamera 4S. At this point, the 750i xDrive leads by 0.64 s and sits roughly 5 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 750i xDrive is doing 158 km/h against 143 km/h for the Panamera 4S. The gap is 0.54 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the 750i xDrive crosses the line in 11.92 s versus 12.87 s. The 0.95 s gap represents roughly 46 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 750i xDrive continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 223 km/h versus 199 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 750i xDrive finishes in 21.35 s versus 23.39 s, with a 2.04 s lead. Despite a higher top speed (277 km/h), the Panamera 4S never recovers its launch deficit.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 750i xDrive is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the Panamera 4S at 282 km/h. This isn’t a physical engine limit - it’s a manufacturer choice, usually for tyre safety or homologation reasons. Neither car reaches its true aerodynamic top speed.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.72 kg/hp vs 4.23 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 7.12 seconds. The 0.64 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
