Off the line, the Cayenne Turbo hits 100 km/h in 4.45 s versus 4.94 s for the SQ2. At this point, the Cayenne Turbo leads by 0.49 s and sits roughly 2 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Cayenne Turbo is doing 149 km/h against 133 km/h for the SQ2. The gap is 0.43 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the Cayenne Turbo crosses the line in 12.59 s versus 13.47 s. The 0.88 s gap represents roughly 40 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 206 km/h versus 190 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Cayenne Turbo finishes in 22.81 s versus 24.55 s, with a 1.73 s lead.
Electronically capped at 278 km/h, the Cayenne Turbo 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 (4.17 kg/hp vs 5.12 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 8.36 seconds. The 0.49 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
