Off the line, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS hits 100 km/h in 3.47 s versus 7.11 s for the Cayenne Diesel. At this point, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS leads by 3.64 s and sits roughly 16 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS is doing 167 km/h against 118 km/h for the Cayenne Diesel. The gap is 2.38 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS crosses the line in 11.24 s versus 15.22 s. The 3.98 s gap represents roughly 151 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 232 km/h versus 163 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS finishes in 20.26 s versus 28.17 s, with a 7.91 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 911 Carrera 4 GTS is capped at 309 km/h, the Cayenne Diesel at 217 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 (3.11 kg/hp vs 8.05 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Unknown).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 11.83 seconds. The 3.64 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 911 Carrera 4 GTS 991.2 wins (3,47 s vs 7,11 s).
911 Carrera 4 GTS 991.2 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 3,47 seconds (calibrated simulation).
