Off the line, the Macan Turbo hits 100 km/h in 4.65 s versus 7.39 s for the Cayenne Diesel. At this point, the Macan Turbo leads by 2.74 s and sits roughly 15 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Macan Turbo is doing 143 km/h against 117 km/h for the Cayenne Diesel. The gap is 1.50 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Macan Turbo crosses the line in 12.93 s versus 15.46 s. The 2.52 s gap represents roughly 97 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Macan Turbo continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 197 km/h versus 160 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Macan Turbo finishes in 23.62 s versus 28.60 s, with a 4.99 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Macan Turbo is capped at 264 km/h, the Cayenne Diesel at 217 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 (4.81 kg/hp vs 8.95 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 12.39 seconds. The 2.74 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Macan Turbo 95B.1 wins (4,65 s vs 7,39 s).
Macan Turbo 95B.1 goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 4,65 seconds (calibrated simulation).
