Off the line, the 911 Carrera 4S (PDK) hits 100 km/h in 4.46 s versus 4.47 s for the 911 Carrera T. The 0.01 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the 911 Carrera 4S (PDK) is doing 150 km/h against 153 km/h for the 911 Carrera T. The gap is 0.04 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 Carrera T crosses the line in 12.47 s versus 12.50 s. The 0.04 s gap represents roughly 2 m of track
Past 400 metres, the 911 Carrera T continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 216 km/h versus 209 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 Carrera T finishes in 22.25 s versus 22.54 s, with a 0.29 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (289 vs 293 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the 911 Carrera 4S (PDK) and the 911 Carrera T are governed to 295 km/h. At that speed, standard-fit tyres approach their safety threshold - an industrial ceiling common to most electric vehicles in this segment. Neither car shows its true aerodynamic potential in this duel.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.87 kg/hp vs 4.13 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Manual).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.56 seconds. The 0.01 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Swap one of the two models to explore an equivalent duel in the same segment.
Over 0–100 km/h, 911 Carrera 4S (PDK) 991.1 and 911 Carrera T 991.2 are neck and neck (4,46 s vs 4,47 s, no significant gap).
