Off the line, the 911 Carrera 4S (PDK w/Sport Chrono Package Plus) hits 100 km/h in 4.20 s versus 4.56 s for the 718 Cayman. At this point, the 911 Carrera 4S (PDK w/Sport Chrono Package Plus) leads by 0.36 s and sits roughly 6 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 911 Carrera 4S (PDK w/Sport Chrono Package Plus) is doing 154 km/h against 149 km/h for the 718 Cayman. The gap is 0.32 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 12.65 s. The 0.46 s gap represents roughly 24 m of track — two to three car lengths.
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 206 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 Carrera 4S (PDK w/Sport Chrono Package Plus) finishes in 21.99 s versus 22.89 s, with a 0.89 s lead.
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 718 Cayman at 274 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 4.45 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.70 seconds. The 0.36 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.
