Race simulation at real speed
CONFIDENCE 95%The 911 Carrera reaches 100 km/h first (3.65 s vs 3.74 s), but the F-TYPE R is ahead at every metre of the race. Explanation: the F-TYPE R accelerates harder at low speed and builds a distance gap before either car hits 100 km/h.
Why this result?
The Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS Cabriolet is faster at 0-100 km/h, but the Jaguar F-TYPE R P575 compensates at high speed thanks to higher peak power or top speed. At 400 m, Jaguar F-TYPE R P575 leads by 0.03 s.

F-TYPE R P575 vs 911 Carrera 4 GTS Cabriolet: chronicle of a drag race at 307 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS Cabriolet hits 100 km/h in 3.65 s versus 3.74 s for the F-TYPE R P575. The 0.09 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS Cabriolet is doing 162 km/h against 165 km/h for the F-TYPE R P575. The gap is 0.05 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the F-TYPE R P575 crosses the line in 11.52 s versus 11.55 s. The 0.03 s gap represents roughly 2 m of track
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the F-TYPE R P575 continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 230 km/h versus 224 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the F-TYPE R P575 finishes in 20.70 s versus 20.93 s, with a 0.23 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (300 vs 307 km/h), preventing any comeback.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the F-TYPE R P575 is capped at 300 km/h, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS Cabriolet at 307 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 (3.03 kg/hp vs 3.26 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 5.31 seconds. The 0.09 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS Cabriolet is slightly faster than the Jaguar F-TYPE R P575 to 100 km/h. The edge holds on standing starts but may narrow at higher speeds depending on aerodynamic load.
