911 Carrera 4S (PDK w/Sport Chrono Package Plus) vs Bmw M240i xDrive Convertible: chronicle of a drag race at 294 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the 911 Carrera 4S (PDK w/Sport Chrono Package Plus) hits 100 km/h in 4.20 s versus 4.54 s for the Bmw M240i xDrive Convertible. At this point, the 911 Carrera 4S (PDK w/Sport Chrono Package Plus) leads by 0.34 s and sits roughly 3 m ahead.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the 911 Carrera 4S (PDK w/Sport Chrono Package Plus) is doing 154 km/h against 145 km/h for the Bmw M240i xDrive Convertible. The gap is 0.30 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 Carrera 4S (PDK w/Sport Chrono Package Plus) crosses the line in 12.19 s versus 12.74 s. The 0.55 s gap represents roughly 27 m of track — two to three car lengths.
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the 911 Carrera 4S (PDK w/Sport Chrono Package Plus) continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 214 km/h versus 201 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 Carrera 4S (PDK w/Sport Chrono Package Plus) finishes in 21.99 s versus 23.19 s, with a 1.20 s lead.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 911 Carrera 4S (PDK w/Sport Chrono Package Plus) is capped at 295 km/h, the Bmw M240i xDrive Convertible at 250 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 (3.87 kg/hp vs 5.06 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.85 seconds. The 0.34 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Porsche 911 Carrera 4S (PDK w/Sport Chrono Package Plus) is slightly faster than the Bmw M240i xDrive Convertible to 100 km/h. The edge holds on standing starts but may narrow at higher speeds depending on aerodynamic load.
