Off the line, the Macan GTS hits 100 km/h in 4.49 s versus 6.30 s for the Tonale PHEV. Despite lacking instant torque, 360 hp of power compensates. At this point, the Macan GTS leads by 1.81 s and sits roughly 17 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Macan GTS is doing 147 km/h against 129 km/h for the Tonale PHEV. The gap is 1.30 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Macan GTS crosses the line in 12.61 s versus 14.52 s. The 1.92 s gap represents roughly 83 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Macan GTS continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 206 km/h versus 179 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Macan GTS finishes in 22.79 s versus 26.24 s, with a 3.45 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Macan GTS is capped at 272 km/h, the Tonale PHEV at 200 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.
Instant electric torque gives an advantage off the line. The higher top speed of the combustion engine gives an advantage over longer distances. The distance at which one catches the other depends on the top speed differential.
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 9.74 seconds. The 1.81 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Macan GTS 95B.3 wins (4,49 s vs 6,30 s).
