Caralogy Analysis

Tailored to this vehicle?

Caralogy Verdict
Suitable for

Demanding drivers: 13th of 43 in 0–100 km/h (4.2 s), 15th of 43 in Top speed (300 km/h), 14th of 43 in Power-to-weight (268 hp/t). 13th of 43 in 0–100 km/h (4.2 s), 15th of 43 in Top speed (300 km/h), 14th of 43 in Power-to-weight (268 hp/t).

Less suitable for

Frequent urban trips with stop-and-go. At 10,9 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 Lamborghini Aventador LP700 (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: 4.2 s 0-100 (13th of 43 in 0–100 km/h)

In pure acceleration, the 911 Carrera S (PDK) ranks 13th of 43 in 0–100 km/h, 1.3 s off the reference Lamborghini Aventador LP700 (2.9 s).

Top speed: 300 km/h (15th of 43 in Top speed)

Top speed of 300 km/h. The segment reference reaches 350 km/h.

Porsche 911 Carrera S (PDK): what you need to know

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

Among the 43 S 2009–2013, the 911 Carrera S (PDK) ranks 13th of 43 in 0–100 km/h (4.2 s, behind the Lamborghini Aventador LP700), 15th of 43 in Top speed (300 km/h, behind the Lamborghini Aventador LP700), 14th of 43 in Power-to-weight (268 hp/t, behind the Lamborghini Aventador LP700).

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.
