Porsche 911 Carrera 4S 991

The Porsche 911 Carrera 4S 991 reaches 60 mph in 3.70 s (100 km/h in 3.87 s) and covers a standing quarter mile in 12.17 s, tripping the lights at 117.2 mph. It clears the first 60 ft in 1.90 s and the eighth mile in 7.87 s, reaching 100 mph in 9.22 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 911 Carrera 4S 991

The 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S 991 is an all-wheel-drive naturally aspirated car of 1,465 kg with 394 bhp, which works out at 269 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 1.90 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 803rd quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest tenth, and the 109th quickest of the 334 Porsches here. Its 117.2 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 10 of 10 published acceleration figures for this car.

Questions

What is the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S 991 0-60 time?
The Porsche 911 Carrera 4S 991 reaches 60 mph in 3.70 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 803rd quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.
What is the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S 991 quarter mile time?
12.17 s at 117.2 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 7.87 s and clears the first 60 ft in 1.90 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
How much power does the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S 991 have?
394 bhp and 1,465 kg, which is 269 bhp per tonne. It is all-wheel-drive, naturally aspirated, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 297 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What cars are comparable to the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S 991?
Closest here on pace: Ruf 997 R Kompressor (3.64 s), Porsche 911 Carrera 991 facelift (3.63 s), Cadillac ATS-V (3.77 s). Each one can be raced against the Porsche 911 Carrera 4S 991 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 911 Carrera 4S 991 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 10 of its 10 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
