Off the line, the 911 GT3 RS hits 100 km/h in 3.26 s versus 4.36 s for the Cayenne Turbo S. At this point, the 911 GT3 RS leads by 1.09 s and sits roughly 12 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the 911 GT3 RS is doing 169 km/h against 152 km/h for the Cayenne Turbo S. The gap is 0.98 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 GT3 RS crosses the line in 11.02 s versus 12.42 s. The 1.40 s gap represents roughly 72 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 911 GT3 RS continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 235 km/h versus 211 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 GT3 RS finishes in 19.95 s versus 22.41 s, with a 2.47 s lead.
Electronically capped at 282 km/h, the Cayenne Turbo S 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 (3.81 kg/hp vs 2.80 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.36 seconds. The 1.09 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 911 GT3 RS 991.2 wins (3,26 s vs 4,36 s).
