Cayman S (Manual) vs Formentor VZ e-Hybrid: chronicle of a drag race at 286 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the Cayman S (Manual) hits 100 km/h in 4.97 s versus 6.54 s for the Formentor VZ e-Hybrid. At this point, the Cayman S (Manual) leads by 1.58 s and sits roughly 12 m ahead.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the Cayman S (Manual) is doing 148 km/h against 127 km/h for the Formentor VZ e-Hybrid. The gap is 1.04 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Cayman S (Manual) crosses the line in 12.90 s versus 14.71 s. The 1.80 s gap represents roughly 76 m of track — a gap visible to the naked eye.
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the Cayman S (Manual) continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 208 km/h versus 175 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Cayman S (Manual) finishes in 22.95 s versus 26.77 s, with a 3.82 s lead.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Electronically capped at 225 km/h, the Formentor VZ e-Hybrid 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 (4.22 kg/hp vs 6.83 kg/hp) and transmission (Manual vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 10.06 seconds. The 1.58 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Porsche Cayman S (Manual) has a clear edge over the Cupra Formentor VZ e-Hybrid to 100 km/h. This difference is clearly noticeable in spirited driving and widens on standing starts.
