Off the line, the 911 R hits 100 km/h in 3.78 s versus 5.77 s for the Cayenne Coupe. At this point, the 911 R leads by 1.99 s and sits roughly 11 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 911 R is doing 166 km/h against 131 km/h for the Cayenne Coupe. The gap is 1.51 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 R crosses the line in 11.38 s versus 13.99 s. The 2.62 s gap represents roughly 112 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 911 R continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 239 km/h versus 181 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 R finishes in 20.19 s versus 25.67 s, with a 5.47 s lead.
Electronically capped at 243 km/h, the Cayenne Coupe never reaches its natural aerodynamic ceiling in this duel. That’s not a physical limit of the motor - it’s a deliberate manufacturer decision, typically tied to standard-fit tyre ratings or model-range positioning.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (2.74 kg/hp vs 6.22 kg/hp) and transmission (Manual vs Unknown).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 9.01 seconds. The 1.99 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 911 R 991.2 wins (3,78 s vs 5,77 s).
911 R 991.2 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 3,78 seconds (calibrated simulation).
