Off the line, the Taycan Turbo S hits 100 km/h in 2.72 s versus 2.85 s for the Model S P100D. At this point, the Taycan Turbo S leads by 0.13 s and sits roughly 2 m ahead.
At 200 metres, the Taycan Turbo S is doing 171 km/h against 173 km/h for the Model S P100D. The gap is 0.02 s. The challenger starts to claw back ground.
At 400 metres standing start, the Model S P100D crosses the line in 10.63 s versus 10.64 s. The 0.02 s gap represents roughly 1 m of track
Past 400 metres, the situation changes. The Model S P100D maxes out at 250 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h while the Taycan Turbo S keeps accelerating towards 260 km/h. At 600 metres, the gap has dropped to 0.05 s.
Around 857 metres, both vehicles are level. This is the inversion point: the Taycan Turbo S overcomes its launch deficit thanks to a 10 km/h higher top speed.
At 1,000 metres, the Taycan Turbo S finishes in 19.50 s versus 19.59 s. The 0.08 s delta shows an extremely tight race.
Both rivals are electronically governed, but not at the same level: the Model S P100D is capped at 249 (i.e. 155 mph — industry threshold) km/h, the Taycan Turbo S at 260 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 (2.94 kg/hp vs 3.09 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 4.19 seconds. The 0.13 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
Swap one of the two models to explore an equivalent duel in the same segment.
