Off the line, the 911 Carrera S hits 100 km/h in 4.44 s versus 4.66 s for the 911 Carrera. At this point, the 911 Carrera S leads by 0.22 s and sits roughly 3 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 911 Carrera S is doing 154 km/h against 151 km/h for the 911 Carrera. The gap is 0.18 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 Carrera S crosses the line in 12.30 s versus 12.55 s. The 0.25 s gap represents roughly 13 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the 911 Carrera S continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 216 km/h versus 215 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 Carrera S finishes in 21.94 s versus 22.38 s, with a 0.44 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 911 Carrera S is capped at 303 km/h, the 911 Carrera at 288 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 (3.44 kg/hp vs 3.89 kg/hp) and transmission (Manual vs Manual).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.74 seconds. The 0.22 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.
