CONFIDENCE 96%The 911 Turbo reaches 100 km/h first (3.22 s vs 3.43 s), but the Roma is ahead at every metre of the race. Explanation: the Roma accelerates harder at low speed and builds a distance gap before either car hits 100 km/h.
Why this result?
The Porsche 911 Turbo is faster at 0-100 km/h, but the Ferrari Roma compensates at high speed thanks to higher peak power or top speed. At 400 m, Ferrari Roma leads by 0.29 s.

Roma vs 911 Turbo: chronicle of a drag race at 357 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the 911 Turbo hits 100 km/h in 3.22 s versus 3.43 s for the Roma. At this point, the 911 Turbo leads by 0.21 s and sits roughly 4 m ahead.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the Roma is doing 182 km/h against 170 km/h for the 911 Turbo. The gap is 0.02 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Roma crosses the line in 10.68 s versus 10.97 s. The 0.29 s gap represents roughly 17 m of track — two to three car lengths.
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the Roma continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 256 km/h versus 235 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Roma finishes in 18.88 s versus 19.89 s, with a 1.02 s lead.
What the numbers don’t tell you
On paper, the Roma combines 620 hp, 760 Nm and 1,472 kg — a clear theoretical edge over the 911 Turbo. Yet the 911 Turbo launches quicker. At standstill, both motors deliver peak torque from 0 rpm: the decisive factor is no longer raw power, but available grip. If the 911 Turbo has a better traction coefficient (tyres, weight distribution, traction control calibration), it puts down more force despite inferior specs — exactly what the simulation reflects, calibrated on manufacturer 0-100 km/h times.
Electronically capped at 314 km/h, the 911 Turbo 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 (2.37 kg/hp vs 3.07 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 4.66 seconds. The 0.21 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Porsche 911 Turbo is slightly faster than the Ferrari Roma to 100 km/h. The edge holds on standing starts but may narrow at higher speeds depending on aerodynamic load.
