Off the line, the 911 Turbo hits 100 km/h in 3.53 s versus 4.90 s for the 911 Carrera 4. At this point, the 911 Turbo leads by 1.36 s and sits roughly 11 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 911 Turbo is doing 168 km/h against 147 km/h for the 911 Carrera 4. The gap is 1.11 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 Turbo crosses the line in 11.25 s versus 12.85 s. The 1.60 s gap represents roughly 80 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 911 Turbo continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 233 km/h versus 209 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 Turbo finishes in 20.27 s versus 22.96 s, with a 2.69 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 911 Turbo is capped at 312 km/h, the 911 Carrera 4 at 285 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 (3.10 kg/hp vs 4.03 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Manual).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 7.15 seconds. The 1.36 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.
