Off the line, the Taycan GTS hits 100 km/h in 3.65 s versus 6.58 s for the P7. At this point, the Taycan GTS leads by 2.94 s and sits roughly 23 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Taycan GTS is doing 156 km/h against 127 km/h for the P7. The gap is 2.10 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Taycan GTS crosses the line in 11.75 s versus 14.81 s. The 3.06 s gap represents roughly 126 m of track - a gap visible to the naked eye.
Past 400 metres, the Taycan GTS continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 219 km/h versus 170 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Taycan GTS finishes in 21.32 s versus 27.64 s, with a 6.32 s lead.
The Taycan GTS features all-wheel drive (AWD) against the P7’s RWD. At low speeds (0-30, 0-50, 0-80 km/h), AWD doubles the driven contact area: all four wheels transmit torque to the road, virtually eliminating wheelspin at launch. This traction advantage is decisive in the range where the motor delivers peak torque, before power and aerodynamics take over.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Taycan GTS is capped at 249 (i.e. 155 mph - industry threshold) km/h, the P7 at 170 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 electric powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (3.90 kg/hp vs 7.59 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 10.18 seconds. The 2.94 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Over 0–100 km/h, Taycan GTS J1.1 wins (3,65 s vs 6,58 s).
