Off the line, the Macan GTS hits 100 km/h in 4.49 s versus 7.16 s for the Cayenne V6. At this point, the Macan GTS leads by 2.67 s and sits roughly 16 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Macan GTS is doing 147 km/h against 122 km/h for the Cayenne V6. The gap is 1.54 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Macan GTS crosses the line in 12.61 s versus 15.12 s. The 2.52 s gap represents roughly 100 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 169 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Macan GTS finishes in 22.79 s versus 27.65 s, with a 4.86 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Macan GTS is capped at 272 km/h, the Cayenne V6 at 230 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 (5.44 kg/hp vs 6.56 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Manual).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 11.40 seconds. The 2.67 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
