Off the line, the 911 Carrera 4 (PDK) hits 100 km/h in 4.68 s versus 4.83 s for the M440i. At this point, the 911 Carrera 4 (PDK) leads by 0.15 s and sits roughly 3 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 911 Carrera 4 (PDK) is doing 149 km/h against 146 km/h for the M440i. The gap is 0.15 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 Carrera 4 (PDK) crosses the line in 12.72 s versus 12.93 s. The 0.21 s gap represents roughly 10 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the 911 Carrera 4 (PDK) continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 207 km/h versus 205 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 Carrera 4 (PDK) finishes in 22.87 s versus 23.15 s, with a 0.27 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the M440i is capped at 250 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the 911 Carrera 4 (PDK) 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 (4.53 kg/hp vs 4.29 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 7.06 seconds. The 0.15 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Swap one of the two models to explore an equivalent duel in the same segment.
