Off the line, the 911 R hits 100 km/h in 3.78 s versus 3.94 s for the Cayenne Turbo S. The 0.16 s gap is negligible: both vehicles are neck and neck.
At 200 metres, the 911 R is doing 166 km/h against 152 km/h for the Cayenne Turbo S. The gap is 0.29 s. The gap widens compared to the 0-100.
At 400 metres standing start, the 911 R crosses the line in 11.38 s versus 12.09 s. The 0.72 s gap represents roughly 37 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the 911 R continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 239 km/h versus 210 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the 911 R finishes in 20.19 s versus 22.13 s, with a 1.93 s lead.
The Cayenne Turbo S features all-wheel drive (AWD) against the 911 R’s RWD. At low speeds (0-30, 0-50, 0-80 km/h), AWD doubles the driven contact area: all four wheels transmit torque to the road, virtually eliminating wheelspin at launch. This traction advantage is decisive in the range where the motor delivers peak torque, before power and aerodynamics take over.
Electronically capped at 283 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 (3.92 kg/hp vs 2.74 kg/hp) and transmission (Unknown vs Manual).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 5.97 seconds. The 0.16 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, 911 R 991.2 wins (3,78 s vs 3,94 s).
Cayenne Turbo S goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 3,94 seconds (calibrated simulation).
