911 Carrera 4 GTS vs I-PACE EV400: chronicle of a drag race at 295 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS hits 100 km/h in 3.97 s versus 4.84 s for the I-PACE EV400. Despite lacking instant torque, 480 hp of power compensates. At this point, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS leads by 0.87 s and sits roughly 11 m ahead.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS is doing 154 km/h against 141 km/h for the I-PACE EV400. The gap is 0.77 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS crosses the line in 11.93 s versus 13.18 s. The 1.25 s gap represents roughly 58 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 218 km/h versus 192 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS finishes in 21.59 s versus 24.36 s, with a 2.76 s lead.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 911 Carrera 4 GTS is capped at 304 km/h, the I-PACE EV400 at 200 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.
Instant electric torque gives an advantage off the line. The higher top speed of the combustion engine gives an advantage over longer distances. The distance at which one catches the other depends on the top speed differential.
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 7.37 seconds. The 0.87 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Porsche 911 Carrera 4 GTS has a clear edge over the Jaguar I-PACE EV400 to 100 km/h. This difference is clearly noticeable in spirited driving and widens on standing starts.
