Off the line, the A110 S 292 hits 100 km/h in 3.93 s versus 4.16 s for the 718 Boxster S. At this point, the A110 S 292 leads by 0.23 s and sits roughly 4 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the A110 S 292 is doing 154 km/h against 157 km/h for the 718 Boxster S. The gap is 0.09 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 718 Boxster S crosses the line in 12.06 s versus 12.08 s. The 0.03 s gap represents roughly 2 m of track
Past 400 metres, the 718 Boxster S continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 218 km/h versus 210 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 718 Boxster S finishes in 21.69 s versus 22.15 s, with a 0.46 s lead.
Electronically capped at 285 km/h, the 718 Boxster S 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 (3.87 kg/hp vs 3.76 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 5.94 seconds. The 0.23 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
