Porsche Stability Management
(PSM).
PSM is an automatic control system
for stabilit y even at the limits of
dynamic driving performance.
Sensors continuously monitor the
direction, speed, yaw velocit y and
lateral acceleration of the vehicle.
PSM uses these values to calculate
the actual direction of travel. If
the car begins to oversteer or
understeer, PSM applies selective
braking on individual wheels to
restore stability.
When accelerating on low-grip
road surfaces, PSM increases
traction using the automatic brake
dif ferential (ABD) and anti-slip
regulation (ASR). For a more active
driving experience, PSM can be
switched off but it remains active
in the background.
Two further functions of PSM
include precharging of the braking
system, to achieve maximum
braking force earlier, and brake
assist for maximum deceleration
in an emergency.
SPORT button.
The standard SPORT but ton is
used to switch bet ween comfort
and sport y setups. At the push of
a but ton, the electronic engine
management system makes the
engine more responsive so that the
engine dynamics become more
direct. The 8-speed Tiptronic S
gearbox shifts up later – and down
earlier. Porsche Active Suspension
Management (PASM) is set to
SPORT mode for harder damping
and more direct steering and,
therefore, greater agilit y on cor-
nering.
Even in SPORT mode, all driving
modes specific to the hybrid
engine are retained, such as elec-
tric driving or recuperation.
E-Power supports the combustion
engine at just 80 % accelerator
pedal position, instead of only on
kick-down as usual.
Sport Chrono Package Plus.
Sport Chrono Package Plus is
available as an option for the
Panamera S Hybrid (only in
conjunction with Porsche Commu-
nication Management – PCM) for an
even sportier vehicle setup.
This includes a digital and analogue
stopwatch, the SPORT PLUS button
and a performance display in the
PCM for lap times. When the
SPORT PLUS but ton in the centre
console activates SPORT PLUS
mode, the engine management
system makes the engine more
responsive, as in SPORT mode.
Porsche Active Suspension Manage-
ment (PASM) is set to SPORT PLUS
mode for harder damping. The
adaptive pneumatic suspension
lowers the vehicle and switches
to a harder spring rate.
Porsche Stabilit y Management
(PSM) intervenes later in SPORT
PLUS mode – for increased
longitudinal and lateral dynamics.
Agilit y is enhanced when braking
for corners with PSM enabling
greater manoeuvrabilit y under
braking and exit acceleration,
particularly at low speeds. SPORT PLUS mode of fers even
more agilit y when PSM is switched
off. However, for safet y, it is set to
intervene automatically only when
ABS assistance is required on both
of the front wheels.
A key component of the Sport
Chrono Package Plus is the
stopwatch mounted on the dash-
board. It displays, stores and
analyses lap times and times for alternative routes and Porsche
Communication Management
(PCM) is extended to include the
performance display.

To drive a sportscar, you have to think of others.
We usually think ahead.
The new Panamera S Hybrid | Balance
Lighting system.
The standard Bi-Xenon headlights
with headlight cleaning system and
automatic dynamic range adjust-
ment ensure uniform illumination
of the road with both dipped and
main beam. Also fit ted as standard
are LED day time running lights.
The Porsche Dynamic Light System
(PDLS) is available as an option. Its
dynamic cornering light function
swivels the headlights towards the
inside of a bend based on steering
angle and driving speed and the
static cornering lights activate the
auxiliary headlights to illuminate
more of the road at tight bends
and turns. Put simply, when you
enter a bend the road ahead is
illuminated immediately. PDLS also
adapts the light distribution to the
speed and visibilit y conditions. The result is increased safet y – not
only at night and on bends.
Body design.
The fully galvanised light weight
body made from steel and alumin-
ium provides a highly resilient
passenger cell for protection in the
event of an impact. A longitudinal
and transverse frame structure
absorbs deformation energy,
disperses impact forces and thus
minimises deformation of the
interior. A rigid front bulkhead
cross member reduces deforma-
tion of the foot wells – for bet ter
protection of the feet and legs of
the occupants.
Pedestrian safet y is enhanced
by the active bonnet system. If
sensors in the front apron detect a collision, the system raises the
rear of the bonnet which can help
to reduce the risk of injury.
Airbags.
The new Panamera S Hybrid is
fit ted as standard with nine full-size
and knee airbags for the driver
and passenger, and the Porsche
Side Impact Protection System
(POSIP). This comprises side
airbags in the front seats, curtain
airbags over the complete roof
frame and side windows from the
A to the C pillar, and side impact
protection in the doors. Side
airbags for the rear are available
as an option.
Balance
Performance and safet y. Not a contradiction, but a promise.
Only when you feel safe, can you use power with conviction.
