Boxster vs Superb 2.0 TSI 220 7DSG: chronicle of a drag race at 261 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the Boxster hits 100 km/h in 5.71 s versus 6.59 s for the Superb 2.0 TSI 220 7DSG. At this point, the Boxster leads by 0.88 s and sits roughly 12 m ahead.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the Boxster is doing 134 km/h against 128 km/h for the Superb 2.0 TSI 220 7DSG. The gap is 0.62 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Boxster crosses the line in 13.88 s versus 14.75 s. The 0.87 s gap represents roughly 38 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the Boxster continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 189 km/h versus 179 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Boxster finishes in 25.03 s versus 26.51 s, with a 1.48 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (261 vs 251 km/h), preventing any comeback.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Electronically capped at 261 km/h, the Boxster 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 (5.27 kg/hp vs 6.73 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 10.06 seconds. The 0.88 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Porsche Boxster has a clear edge over the Skoda Superb 2.0 TSI 220 7DSG to 100 km/h. This difference is clearly noticeable in spirited driving and widens on standing starts.
