Off the line, the 911 Carrera Cabriolet hits 100 km/h in 4.43 s versus 7.66 s for the 220d Convertible. At this point, the 911 Carrera Cabriolet leads by 3.24 s and sits roughly 23 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 911 Carrera Cabriolet is doing 153 km/h against 120 km/h for the 220d Convertible. The gap is 2.14 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 Carrera Cabriolet crosses the line in 12.42 s versus 15.71 s. The 3.29 s gap represents roughly 129 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 911 Carrera Cabriolet continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 214 km/h versus 167 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 Carrera Cabriolet finishes in 22.28 s versus 28.34 s, with a 6.06 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 911 Carrera Cabriolet is capped at 291 km/h, the 220d Convertible at 225 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 (4.00 kg/hp vs 8.34 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 12.00 seconds. The 3.24 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 911 Carrera Cabriolet 991.2 wins (4,42 s vs 7,66 s).
