Off the line, the Cayenne Turbo hits 100 km/h in 4.45 s versus 9.49 s for the X2 sDrive18i. At this point, the Cayenne Turbo leads by 5.04 s and sits roughly 23 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Cayenne Turbo is doing 149 km/h against 108 km/h for the X2 sDrive18i. The gap is 2.64 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Cayenne Turbo crosses the line in 12.59 s versus 16.88 s. The 4.29 s gap represents roughly 149 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Cayenne Turbo continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 205 km/h versus 149 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Cayenne Turbo finishes in 22.82 s versus 31.04 s, with a 8.22 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Cayenne Turbo is capped at 278 km/h, the X2 sDrive18i at 205 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 (4.17 kg/hp vs 10.37 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 16.03 seconds. The 5.04 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Cayenne Turbo 958.1 wins (4,45 s vs 9,49 s).
