Off the line, the 488 GTB hits 100 km/h in 3.03 s versus 3.15 s for the 812 GTS. The 0.12 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the 488 GTB is doing 188 km/h against 178 km/h for the 812 GTS. The gap is 0.24 s. The gap widens compared to the 0-100.
At 400 metres standing start, the 488 GTB crosses the line in 10.20 s versus 10.66 s. The 0.46 s gap represents roughly 28 m of track — two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the 488 GTB continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 261 km/h versus 245 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 488 GTB finishes in 18.27 s versus 19.24 s, with a 0.97 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (327 vs 339 km/h), preventing any comeback.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (2.04 kg/hp vs 2.20 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 4.30 seconds. The 0.12 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
