Off the line, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS hits 100 km/h in 3.47 s versus 5.83 s for the Panamera. At this point, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS leads by 2.36 s and sits roughly 15 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS is doing 167 km/h against 130 km/h for the Panamera. The gap is 1.82 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 14.15 s. The 2.90 s gap represents roughly 124 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 181 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 Carrera 4 GTS finishes in 20.26 s versus 25.76 s, with a 5.50 s lead.
The 911 Carrera 4 GTS features all-wheel drive (AWD) against the Panamera’s RWD. At low speeds (0-30, 0-50, 0-80 km/h), AWD doubles the driven contact area: all four wheels transmit torque to the road, virtually eliminating wheelspin at launch. This traction advantage is decisive in the range where the motor delivers peak torque, before power and aerodynamics take over.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 911 Carrera 4 GTS is capped at 309 km/h, the Panamera at 257 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 5.79 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 9.21 seconds. The 2.36 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
