For the Panamera 4 and 4S, and
for the Panamera and Panamera S
when fit ted in combination with
Porsche Doppelkupplung
(PDK),
the optional Sport Chrono Package
Plus contains even more functions.
The shift times in ‘SPORT PLUS’
mode are shorter, the gear
changes sportier. In automatic
mode and at low rates of decel -
eration – even with high engine
speeds – the system initiates a
swif ter brake-induced downshif t.
In manual mode, gear changes
are faster, more dynamic and
more direct.
A special feature of this package
that further enhances sport y
performance is Launch Control,
which is designed to produce opti -
mum acceleration from a standing
start. This function is operated via
the SPORT PLUS but ton with the
‘D’ or ‘M’ drive position selected.
With the left foot depressing
the brake pedal, the driver fully
depresses the accelerator for
maximum throt tle. The engine is
rev ved to an optimum speed of
around 5,500 rpm and the clutch
is already held in slight contact.
The message ‘Launch Control active’ appears in the display on
the steering wheel for PDK* or
optional three-spoke sports steer
-
ing wheel with gearshif t paddles*.
Now, the driver simply releases
the brake pedal, and prepares for
maximum acceleration.
Sport Chrono Package Turbo.
For the Panamera Turbo, increased
power output is a mat ter of prin -
ciple. The same applies to the
optional Sport Chrono Package
Turbo. Typifying the Turbo philos -
ophy, it not only combines all the
functions of Sport Chrono Package
Plus, it adds one more: Overboost.
Imagine you are accelerating
at full throt tle with the SPORT or
SPORT PLUS but ton selected.
Boost pressure is temporarily
increased by 10 %, which considerably increases the maxi -
mum torque that the engine is
able to produce. Instead of the
normal 700 Nm, the overboost
function
generates a torque of up
to 770 Nm for a limited period
and
a feeling of satisfaction that
lasts even longer.

The Porsche Dynamic Light Sys-
tem (PDLS) is standard on the
Panamera Turbo and available as
an option for all other Panamera
models. Its dynamic cornering
light function swivels the head -
lights towards the inside of a bend
based on steering angle and road
speed and the static cornering
lights activate the auxiliary head -
lights in order to illuminate more
of the road on tight bends and
turns. Put simply, when you enter
a bend, the road ahead is illumi -
nated immediately so you can see
any obstacles much sooner.
The system also features speed-
dependent headlight range con -
trol. With adaptive light systems,
it is possible for the maximum
range of the dipped beams to be
increased as a function of the
speed of the vehicle. PDLS takes
care of this automatically. Stage
1 is the basic position for driving in cit y traffic,
for example. Stage
2 is for designed for driving at
faster
speeds, such as on the
motorway. Here, the range of the
dipped beams is adjusted by
adapting the shape of the light
cone, extending it further forward
to improve visibilit y without
dazzling oncoming traffic.
Another feature of the PDLS,
the adverse weather function, is
activated when you switch on
the rear fog
light. It reduces the
effect of reflection phenomena
in poor visibility conditions, e.g.
fog,
heav y rain or snow fall. The
dipped beams are fanned out
and the light cone is lowered to
reduce
the risk of the driver
being
dazzled.
Vehicles with the driver memory
package or 14-way power seats
with memory package (standard
in the Panamera Turbo) feature LED courtesy lights in the exterior
mirrors to illuminate the area
around the doors.
In the event of sudden braking,
the adaptive LED brake lights of
the Panamera model range pulsate
to alert following traffic more
quickly to a critical situation.
Cut ting edge LED technology is
also used for the taillights, the
additional brake light in the rear
lid, the rear direction indicators
and the rear fog light. LEDs
provide bet ter illumination and
respond more quickly to driver
input. Not only do they increase
active safet y in this way, they are
energy ef ficient, eco -friendly
and have a longer service life than
conventional bulbs. Furthermore,
their design is unmistakably
Porsche, day or night.

Instruments.
The five circular dashboard instru-
ments in the Panamera models
are quick, clear and easy to read.
Typically Porsche.
The instrument cluster with high-
resolution 4.8-inch TFT colour
screen gives you access to the
on-board computer or the naviga -
tion system map, for example.
It also shows the set tings of the
optional adaptive cruise control
or gives various warnings, such
as alerts from the Tyre Pressure
Monitoring (TPM).
In the new Panamera and
Panamera 4 models, the dial face
of the rev counter is black; in
the Panamera S and Panamera 4S
it is silver-grey, and in the
Panamera Turbo it is black and
bears the ‘turbo’ logo.
Front seats.
The front seats with integrated
headrests of fer a high degree of
comfort. During cornering, they
hold your body firm but without
restricting your freedom of move -
ment.
Seat adjustment is fully electric as
standard with controls on both the
driver and front passenger sides
for seat height, squab and back -
rest angle, and fore/af t position. A
driver memory package, available
as an option, enables the driver’s
seat and exterior mirror positions
to be saved and restored auto -
ma t ic a l l y.
In the Panamera Turbo, the front
seats offer even more function -
alit y. The 14-way power seats with
memory package for both driver
and front passenger are standard
(optional for all other Panamera
models). In addition to featuring an
electric steering column adjust -
ment facilit y, this includes electric
four-way lumbar support, electric
seat squab length adjustment and
personal memory for seat, steer -
ing wheel and mirror positions.
The courtesy lights (LEDs in the
exterior mirrors) are a component
of the driver memory package and
14-way power seats with memory
package.
ISOFIX child seat mounting points
are available as an option for the
front passenger seat in conjunc -
tion with the deactivation function
for the passenger airbag.
Adaptive sports seats.
Do you wish to take sport y driving
to an even higher level? That is
precisely what the adaptive sports
seats were designed for. Available
as an option for all Panamera
models, they have firmer uphol-
ster y
and provide even bet ter
lateral support thanks to the
raised side bolsters on the seat
squab and backrest. Featuring 18-way electric adjust
-
ment, the seats can be optimally
adapted to meet your needs in
terms of seat height, squab and
backrest angle, squab length, fore/
af t adjustment and 4-way lumbar
support. The steering column is
also electrically adjustable.
In addition, the side bolsters on
the seat squab and backrest are
independently adjustable for added comfort with longitudinal
or precision lateral support on
winding roads. Also included is
the personal memory for the
driver and front passenger seats
(including lumbar support), the
steering wheel and the driver’s
exterior mirror.
