Off the line, the Cayenne GTS hits 100 km/h in 4.92 s versus 5.40 s for the G 500. At this point, the Cayenne GTS leads by 0.48 s and sits roughly 3 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Cayenne GTS is doing 141 km/h against 133 km/h for the G 500. The gap is 0.30 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Cayenne GTS crosses the line in 13.11 s versus 13.68 s. The 0.57 s gap represents roughly 26 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the Cayenne GTS continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 195 km/h versus 183 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Cayenne GTS finishes in 23.91 s versus 25.19 s, with a 1.28 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the G 500 is capped at 210 km/h, the Cayenne GTS at 262 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 (5.53 kg/hp vs 4.80 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Unknown).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 8.48 seconds. The 0.48 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
