Off the line, the Panamera Turbo hits 100 km/h in 4.03 s versus 4.16 s for the Panamera Turbo. At this point, the Panamera Turbo leads by 0.13 s and sits roughly 1 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Panamera Turbo is doing 156 km/h against 153 km/h for the Panamera Turbo. The gap is 0.11 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the Panamera Turbo crosses the line in 12.02 s versus 12.21 s. The 0.19 s gap represents roughly 10 m of track - two to three car lengths.
Past 400 metres, the Panamera Turbo continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 216 km/h versus 212 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Panamera Turbo finishes in 21.74 s versus 22.11 s, with a 0.37 s lead. Both vehicles have similar top speeds (293 vs 298 km/h), preventing any comeback.
Both rivals share the same electronic speed cap: the Panamera Turbo and the Panamera Turbo are governed to 303 km/h. At that speed, standard-fit tyres approach their safety threshold - an industrial ceiling common to most electric vehicles in this segment. Neither car shows its true aerodynamic potential in this duel.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.58 kg/hp vs 3.58 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 6.08 seconds. The 0.13 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Panamera Turbo wins (4,03 s vs 4,16 s).
Panamera Turbo goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 4,16 seconds (calibrated simulation).
