Off the line, the Macan S hits 100 km/h in 5.37 s versus 5.39 s for the Terramar VZ. The 0.02 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the Macan S is doing 135 km/h against 138 km/h for the Terramar VZ. The gap is 0.10 s. The gap widens compared to the 0-100.
At 400 metres standing start, the Macan S crosses the line in 13.65 s versus 13.70 s. The 0.05 s gap represents roughly 2 m of track - barely a car length.
Past 400 metres, the situation changes. The Macan S maxes out at 251 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h while the Terramar VZ keeps accelerating towards 261 km/h. At 600 metres, the gap has dropped to 0.01 s.
Around 558 metres, both vehicles are level. This is the inversion point: the Terramar VZ overcomes its launch deficit thanks to a 10 km/h higher top speed.
At 1,000 metres, the Terramar VZ finishes in 24.72 s versus 24.85 s. The 0.13 s delta shows an extremely tight race.
Electronically capped at 251 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the Macan S never reaches its natural aerodynamic ceiling in this duel. That’s not a physical limit of the motor - it’s a deliberate manufacturer decision, typically tied to standard-fit tyre ratings or model-range positioning.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (5.49 kg/hp vs 5.57 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 8.35 seconds. The 0.02 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.
