Off the line, the Cayenne Turbo Coupe hits 100 km/h in 3.84 s versus 7.43 s for the Cayenne Diesel. At this point, the Cayenne Turbo Coupe leads by 3.59 s and sits roughly 22 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Cayenne Turbo Coupe is doing 150 km/h against 117 km/h for the Cayenne Diesel. The gap is 2.16 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Cayenne Turbo Coupe crosses the line in 12.07 s versus 15.43 s. The 3.36 s gap represents roughly 127 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Cayenne Turbo Coupe continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 206 km/h versus 161 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Cayenne Turbo Coupe finishes in 22.22 s versus 28.50 s, with a 6.28 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Cayenne Turbo Coupe is capped at 285 km/h, the Cayenne Diesel at 217 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 (4.38 kg/hp vs 8.95 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 12.32 seconds. The 3.59 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
