The 2024 Porsche Panamera promises an even more digital, streamlined, and passenger-friendly cabin.
At the Paris Auto Show in 2012, Porsche showed off the Sport Turismo Concept which was more or less a Panamera with a more wagon-like…
Porsche has published a video featuring the Porsche Macan ahead of its November debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show.
What the 2014 model is, though, is a comprehensive refit of arguably the best driver’s sedan on sale. While there’s been some attention paid on the exterior, the mechanicals of the Panamera have seen the biggest changes.
If you’re one of the types that isn’t exactly crazy about the looks of the Porsche Panamera, then you ought to feast your eyes upon this concept. This is the Panamera Sport Turismo Concept, or for common folk, the Panamera Wagon. We like it a lot.
The Porsche Cayman is one of the German automaker’s sweetest-handling cars and for 2013, it is receiving a few updates. Spy photographers over at Auto Evolution snagged photos of the car’s interior—Like all of the new Porsche’s, the interior is dominated by the commanding Panamera-esque center stack. While other manufacturers are moving beyond allowing drivers to row their own gears, Porsche is keeping with its heritage and has fitted this car, which may be a Cayman S, with a manual transmission.
The Panamera Hybrid provides an excellent environment for audio, because the car is so quiet. But this Bose system is disappointing.
Porsche has added yet another member to the Panamera range, in the form of the GTS. Based off of the Panamera 4S, the GTS features a modified version of the S/4S’s 4.8-liter V-8, which produces an extra 30 horsepower (430 horsepower compared to 400 in the Panamera S/4S). Torque is up 15 pound-feet as well. Power is delivered to all four wheels by way of Porsche’s seven-speed PDK (or Doppelkupplungsgetriebe if you sprechen Deutsch). 0-60 miles per hour happens in a brisk 4.3 seconds, while the top speed sits at a lofty 178 miles per hour.
Porsche has just unveiled an alarmingly quick method of getting you and three of your closest friends to 60 miles per hour in 3.6 seconds. It’s called the Panamera Turbo S, and following Porsche’s naming etymology it is the faster version of the already blisteringly quick Panamera Turbo.
Today, Porsche released details and some images about the newest and most efficient addition to its hybrid lineup, the 2011 Porsche Panamera S Hybrid.
For me, there is a certain excitement that comes when driving a Porsche—any Porsche, really—I suppose because long experience with the brand has proven that there’s an unbreakable social contract at work. When you climb into vehicle that wears the famous Stuttgart badge, you can rest assured that it was designed and built by serious men and women who understand quality and solidity and, above all, care just as much about the qualitative aspects of driving as you do.
Well, folks, after a day spent driving the new XJL and the Panamera back to back, I’m here to tell you that the luxury sedan market has new players intent on upsetting the proverbial apple cart. As Seyth indicated in his coverage of the new XJ, Jaguar is back in a big way. As a measure of just how far Jaguar has progressed, my recent time in the XJL suggests that Porsche, more than BMW or Mercedes, is the required comparison. Lexus really doesn’t merit mention in this company. How times change.
Today, Porsche unveiled another version of the Porsche Panamera and Panamera 4, powered by a 3.6-liter V-6 engine.
We’ve personally been present at all of the Panamera events leading up to today’s long awaited drive and we can say honestly that the Porsche luxury liner has looked better and better to us with each walk-around. Whether witnessing in the clouds above Shanghai, in the passenger seat at the company’s Weissach tech center, or driving it here in the Bavarian Alps, we are now certain that the Panamera is at the very least a trueblood modern day Porsche.
