Porsche 718 Cayman vs Porsche Taycan GTS Facelift

Over a standing quarter mile on dry asphalt the Porsche Taycan GTS Facelift is the quicker car, covering it in 10.86 s at 127.9 mph against the Porsche 718 Cayman’s 12.81 s — a margin of 1.95 s. To 60 mph the Porsche Taycan GTS Facelift takes 2.75 s and the Porsche 718 Cayman 4.18 s.

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

Questions

Is the Porsche 718 Cayman or the Porsche Taycan GTS Facelift faster?
The Porsche Taycan GTS Facelift. Over a standing quarter mile it runs 10.86 s to the Porsche 718 Cayman's 12.81 s, a margin of 1.95 s, and it reaches 60 mph in 2.75 s against 4.18 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
What is the Porsche 718 Cayman 0-60 time?
The Porsche 718 Cayman reaches 60 mph in 4.18 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 12.81 s at 108.9 mph.
What is the Porsche Taycan GTS Facelift 0-60 time?
The Porsche Taycan GTS Facelift reaches 60 mph in 2.75 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. It covers the standing quarter mile in 10.86 s at 127.9 mph.
What trap speed does each car run?
The Porsche 718 Cayman trips the lights at 108.9 mph and the Porsche Taycan GTS Facelift at 127.9 mph at the end of the quarter mile. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.
Are these real measured times?
No. Every time on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. Each car is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it matches its own published acceleration figures — 9 of 10 for the Porsche 718 Cayman and 8 of 8 for the Porsche Taycan GTS Facelift. Conditions are identical for both cars: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.
