The start: 0 to 100 km/h

Off the line, the Aventador S hits 100 km/h in 2.88 s versus 3.92 s for the Panamera Turbo. At this point, the Aventador S leads by 1.04 s and sits roughly 8 m ahead.

From 100 km/h to 400 metres

At 200 metres, the Aventador S is doing 182 km/h against 153 km/h for the Panamera Turbo. The gap is 1.06 s. The gap remains stable from the start.

At 400 metres standing start, the Aventador S crosses the line in 10.30 s versus 12.01 s. The 1.71 s gap represents roughly 87 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.

Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play

Past 400 metres, the Aventador S continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 253 km/h versus 213 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Aventador S finishes in 18.59 s versus 21.90 s, with a 3.31 s lead.

What the numbers don’t tell you

Electronically capped at 303 km/h, the Panamera 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 (2.13 kg/hp vs 3.58 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).

In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 5.84 seconds. The 1.04 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
