Off the line, the 296 GTB hits 100 km/h in 2.94 s versus 3.85 s for the 911 GT3 RS. The instant torque of 740 Nm from the electric motor makes the difference. At this point, the 296 GTB leads by 0.92 s and sits roughly 7 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 296 GTB is doing 184 km/h against 164 km/h for the 911 GT3 RS. The gap is 0.86 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the 296 GTB crosses the line in 10.30 s versus 11.57 s. The 1.27 s gap represents roughly 71 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 296 GTB continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 255 km/h versus 232 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 296 GTB finishes in 18.57 s versus 20.63 s, with a 2.07 s lead.
Instant electric torque gives an advantage off the line. The higher top speed of the combustion engine gives an advantage over longer distances. The distance at which one catches the other depends on the top speed differential.
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 5.52 seconds. The 0.92 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 296 GTB wins (2,94 s vs 3,85 s).
