Off the line, the F-PACE SVR hits 100 km/h in 4.35 s versus 5.73 s for the Cayenne S. At this point, the F-PACE SVR leads by 1.38 s and sits roughly 8 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the F-PACE SVR is doing 154 km/h against 133 km/h for the Cayenne S. The gap is 0.95 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the F-PACE SVR crosses the line in 12.30 s versus 13.92 s. The 1.62 s gap represents roughly 72 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the F-PACE SVR continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 216 km/h versus 186 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the F-PACE SVR finishes in 22.05 s versus 25.21 s, with a 3.16 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the F-PACE SVR is capped at 285 km/h, the Cayenne S at 258 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 (3.68 kg/hp vs 4.92 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Unknown).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 8.75 seconds. The 1.38 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
