Caralogy Analysis

Tailored to this vehicle?

Caralogy Verdict
Suitable for

Demanding drivers: 15th of 44 in Top speed (303 km/h). 15th of 44 in Top speed (303 km/h).

Less suitable for

Frequent urban trips with stop-and-go. At 10,7 L/100 km on the combined cycle, consumption rises in the city without electric assistance. An HEV or PHEV would be more economical for this use profile.

Alternatives to consider

If the priority is 0–100 km/h, the Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet (1st with 2.9 s) takes the lead. If the priority is Top speed, the Lamborghini Aventador LP700 (1st with 350 km/h) takes the lead.

Acceleration: 4.4 s 0-100 (19th of 44 in 0–100 km/h)

In pure acceleration, the 911 Carrera S ranks 19th of 44 in 0–100 km/h, 1.5 s off the reference Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet (2.9 s).

Top speed: 303 km/h (15th of 44 in Top speed)

Top speed of 303 km/h. The segment reference reaches 350 km/h.

Porsche 911 Carrera S: what you need to know

Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.

Among the 44 S 2011–2015, the 911 Carrera S ranks 19th of 44 in 0–100 km/h (4.4 s, behind the Porsche 911 Turbo S Cabriolet), 15th of 44 in Top speed (303 km/h, behind the Lamborghini Aventador LP700), 16th of 44 in Power-to-weight (291 hp/t, behind the Ferrari 488 GTB).

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
