Porsche 718 Spyder

The Porsche 718 Spyder reaches 60 mph in 3.70 s (100 km/h in 3.87 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 11.95 s, tripping the lights at 119.2 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 1.95 s and the eighth mile in 7.78 s, reaching 100 mph in 8.51 s.

Simulated, not measured — computed from published kerb mass, rated power, gearing and drivetrain, then fitted to this car’s own published acceleration figures. Dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

About the 718 Spyder

The 2019 Porsche 718 Spyder is a rear-drive naturally aspirated roadster of 1,418 kg with 414 bhp, which works out at 292 bhp per tonne. Rear drive and 292 bhp per tonne make the launch the hard part of the run: 60 ft takes 1.95 s. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 801st quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest tenth, and the 108th quickest of the 334 Porsches here. Its 119.2 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 9 of 11 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Porsche 718 Spyder 0-60 time?
The Porsche 718 Spyder reaches 60 mph in 3.70 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 801st quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Porsche 718 Spyder quarter mile time?
11.95 s at 119.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 7.78 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.95 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Porsche 718 Spyder have?
414 bhp and 1,418 kg, which is 292 bhp per tonne. It is rear-drive, naturally aspirated, with 7 gears and a quoted top speed of 301 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Porsche 718 Spyder?
Closest here on pace: Ferrari F430 Spyder (3.71 s), Jaguar F-Type V8 S (3.76 s), Jaguar XKR-S Convertible 550 PS (3.83 s). Each one can be raced against the Porsche 718 Spyder in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The Porsche 718 Spyder is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 9 of its 11 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
