Off the line, the Cayenne GTS hits 100 km/h in 4.92 s versus 5.06 s for the Macan GTS. At this point, the Cayenne GTS leads by 0.15 s and sits roughly 2 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Cayenne GTS is doing 141 km/h against 138 km/h for the Macan GTS. The gap is 0.16 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the Cayenne GTS crosses the line in 13.11 s versus 13.37 s. The 0.27 s gap represents roughly 13 m of track — two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the Cayenne GTS continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 195 km/h versus 191 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Cayenne GTS finishes in 23.91 s versus 24.40 s, with a 0.49 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (262 vs 256 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Cayenne GTS is capped at 262 km/h, the Macan GTS at 256 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 (4.80 kg/hp vs 5.26 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 7.89 seconds. The 0.15 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
