Off the line, the Panamera Turbo hits 100 km/h in 3.55 s versus 7.41 s for the Atto 3 Extended Range. Despite lacking instant torque, 550 hp of power compensates. At this point, the Panamera Turbo leads by 3.87 s and sits roughly 24 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Panamera Turbo is doing 163 km/h against 121 km/h for the Atto 3 Extended Range. The gap is 2.72 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Panamera Turbo crosses the line in 11.45 s versus 15.57 s. The 4.12 s gap represents roughly 159 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Panamera Turbo continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 228 km/h versus 160 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Panamera Turbo finishes in 20.66 s versus 29.19 s, with a 8.53 s lead.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Panamera Turbo is capped at 308 km/h, the Atto 3 Extended Range at 160 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 11.71 seconds. The 3.87 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Panamera Turbo wins (3,54 s vs 7,41 s).
Panamera Turbo goes from 0 to 100 km/h in 3,54 seconds (calibrated simulation).
