Off the line, the 911 Turbo hits 100 km/h in 3.04 s versus 3.46 s for the 2020 911 Carrera S. At this point, the 911 Turbo leads by 0.42 s and sits roughly 5 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 911 Turbo is doing 171 km/h against 163 km/h for the 2020 911 Carrera S. The gap is 0.38 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 Turbo crosses the line in 10.79 s versus 11.38 s. The 0.59 s gap represents roughly 33 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 238 km/h versus 226 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 Turbo finishes in 19.64 s versus 20.70 s, with a 1.06 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (315 vs 307 km/h), preventing any comeback.
The 911 Turbo features all-wheel drive (AWD) against the 2020 911 Carrera S’s RWD. At low speeds (0-30, 0-50, 0-80 km/h), AWD doubles the driven contact area: all four wheels transmit torque to the road, virtually eliminating wheelspin at launch. This traction advantage is decisive in the range where the motor delivers peak torque, before power and aerodynamics take over.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 911 Turbo is capped at 319 km/h, the 2020 911 Carrera S at 307 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 (2.92 kg/hp vs 3.42 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 5.09 seconds. The 0.42 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 911 Turbo 991.2 wins (3,04 s vs 3,46 s).
911 Turbo 991.2 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 3,04 seconds (calibrated simulation).
