Off the line, the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet hits 100 km/h in 2.95 s versus 4.78 s for the Panamera 4S. At this point, the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet leads by 1.83 s and sits roughly 13 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet is doing 176 km/h against 142 km/h for the Panamera 4S. The gap is 1.57 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet crosses the line in 10.56 s versus 12.98 s. The 2.42 s gap represents roughly 114 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 246 km/h versus 198 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet finishes in 19.13 s versus 23.57 s, with a 4.44 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the 911 Turbo S Cabriolet is capped at 330 (i.e. 205 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the Panamera 4S at 283 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 (2.84 kg/hp vs 4.23 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 7.26 seconds. The 1.83 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 911 Turbo S Cabriolet 991.2 wins (2,95 s vs 4,78 s).
