Off the line, the 911 Carrera Cab hits 100 km/h in 4.52 s versus 7.55 s for the Cayenne (8-speed Tiptronic S). At this point, the 911 Carrera Cab leads by 3.04 s and sits roughly 19 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 911 Carrera Cab is doing 148 km/h against 119 km/h for the Cayenne (8-speed Tiptronic S). The gap is 1.84 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 Carrera Cab crosses the line in 12.62 s versus 15.50 s. The 2.88 s gap represents roughly 114 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 911 Carrera Cab continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 208 km/h versus 166 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 Carrera Cab finishes in 22.72 s versus 28.16 s, with a 5.44 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 911 Carrera Cab is capped at 289 km/h, the Cayenne (8-speed Tiptronic S) at 230 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 (4.29 kg/hp vs 6.68 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 11.88 seconds. The 3.04 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.
