Rear seats.
Two fully independent seats with
plent y of leg and head room, even
for taller passengers. They provide
good lateral support, even during
fast cornering, with no compro -
mise on comfort. Bet ween the
seats is a folding armrest with a
handy storage compartment. The
backrests fold down individually
with a ratio of 40:60 to increase
storage capacit y or to accom -
modate unwieldy items. With the
optional large centre console,
the backrests can still be folded
separately while the console itself
remains fixed in position.
8-way power seats are available
as an option for the rear in any
of the Panamera models. In
addition to the electric backrest
adjustment, seat squab length
adjustment and lumbar support functions, there is a facilit y to
adjust the front passenger seat
from the rear.
When specified in conjunction with
seat ventilation (p. 150), the
8-way power seats (rear) feature
automatic comfort headrests.
In conjunction with the adaptive
sports seats in the front, sports
seats are also fit ted in the rear
and feature a contrasting seam
pat tern and elevated side bolsters.
ISOFIX child seat mounting points
are fit ted as standard on both rear
seats in all Panamera models.
Seat heating and ventilation.
The front seats of the Panamera S,
4S and Turbo models feature seat
heating as standard (optional for
Panamera and Panamera 4). This
heats the seat squab and backrest
to a pleasant temperature. In the
Panamera Turbo, the seats in the
rear also have a heating function
(optional for all other models).
On request, we can equip the
front seats, indeed all four seats,
with seat ventilation (only in
conjunction with seat heating).
A slipstream ef fect is produced
by active ventilation of the per -
forated seat centre and backrest
and by passive aeration at the
side bolsters. This evaporates
perspiration moisture and there -
fore makes for a comfortable
seating environment, even in
hot weather. Seat heating and
seat ventilation can be adjusted
independently to any one of
three power levels. Simultaneous
ventilation and heating is possible.

In the new Panamera and
Panamera 4 models and in the
Panamera S and 4S, a total out -
put of 235 wat ts is produced
through a combination of 11 loud -
speakers. Fit ted as standard in
the Panamera Turbo, the BOSE
®
Surround Sound System (p. 114)
enables the playing of audio
sources in the Dolby Digital 5.1
format. For an even greater sound
experience, PCM can be combined
with the optional Burmester®
High - End Surround Sound System
(p. 116).
In conjunction with the PCM,
an optionally available universal
audio interface enables you to
connect an iPod® or any other
compatible MP3 player via the
USB port.* An AUX interface for
connecting other audio sources is
also provided. An optional hybrid
T V tuner is capable of receiving
free-to -air analogue and digital
broadcasts. PCM can also be
used to control the performance
display of the optional Sport
Chrono Package Plus (p. 74) or
Sport Chrono Package Turbo
(p. 76). A navigation module with high-
speed hard drive is included with
PCM. For route guidance, it is
possible to select bet ween a 2D
display and a new 3D perspec
-
tive. In some regions, it is even
possible for buildings and terrain
superimposed with a satellite
image overlay to be displayed in
3D. The remaining journey dis -
tance is automatically adapted to
the maximum screen size. Split -
screen mode enables you to view
t wo functions at once, such as
the current navigation map and
list of symbols representing your
next driving instructions.
Voice control system.
Do you require navigation assist -
ance, need to make a phone
call or simply want to listen to the
radio? Then why not just say so?
The optional voice control system
for PCM is at your command with
support for word-by-word input.
You can even browse through lists
by voice command.
Electronic logbook.
An electronic logbook is available
for PCM as an option. It enables
automatic logging on every journey
of mileage, route distance, date,
time, starting location and desti -
nation. The soft ware fulfils all
statutory requirements for auto -
matic logbooks as specified by
the German revenue authorities.
Telephone module.
Available as an option for the
Panamera and Panamera 4 (stand-
ard on Panamera S, Panamera 4S
and Panamera Turbo), the GSM
telephone module offers conven -
ience and excellent reception.
By inserting a SIM card directly
into PCM’s integral SIM card
reader, calls can be made using
either the hands-free facilit y or
the cordless handset. For even
more convenience, the Bluetooth®
capabilit y of a mobile phone can
be used to make calls through the
SIM Access Profile (SAP). Once
automatic pairing is complete, the
mobile phone’s aerial is switched
of f to conserve bat ter y charge
and the phone operates via the car aerial. Depending on the t ype
of mobile phone, this gives access
not only to the numbers on the
SIM card, but also to the phone’s
internal memory. Also, depending
on the phone, it can be controlled
using PCM, the multifunction
steering wheel or the voice con -
trol system, without it ever leaving
your pocket.
In addition, the telephone module
enables you to establish a
Bluetooth® link with those mobile
phones that only support the
Handsfree Profile (HFP). In this
case, the GSM connection is
always established through the
aerial of the mobile phone. PCM
acts as a hands-free system and
you can leave the mobile phone
tucked away. Please refer to the
note on page 159.
Stowed in the centre console, the
telephone module has a cordless
Bluetooth
® active handset with
display and keypad so that calls
can be made and received pri -
vately in the presence of other
passengers. However, the handset
cannot be used for Bluetooth
®
links established using the Hands -
free Profile (HFP).
* For information on compatibilit y with iPod® models, please contact your Porsche Centre.

Personality | Comfort
Can it be true that the passengers
in a Porsche actually want to listen
to music rather than the sound
of the engine? We understand your
scepticism, but we do have a
compelling solution: the BOSE®
Surround Sound System.
The BOSE® Surround Sound
System is fit ted as standard in
the Panamera Turbo and optional
across the rest of the Panamera
model range. The system comprises 9 amplifier
channels with a total output of
585 wat ts. Its 14 loudspeakers
and 200 -wat t active subwoofer
deliver a balanced acoustic pat tern
and transform your Panamera into
a concert hall.
In combination with Porsche
Communication Management
(PCM), the BOSE® Surround Sound
System enables playback of audio
DVDs and is thus able to make full use of the impressive sound
spectrum of 5.1 digital recordings.
Of course, you can still play other
audio sources such as CDs and
MP3s. In stereo, or at the push of
a but ton, in one of the virtual sur -
round modes generated by BOSE
®
Centerpoint
® 2.
The BOSE
®- patented AudioPilot®
Noise Compensation Technology
uses a microphone to continuously
measure the ambient noise inside
the vehicle and adapts music
playback automatically so that a
consistent sound is maintained –
whatever the driving conditions.
As an innovator in the field,
BOSE® has used its considerable
experience to adapt the system
specifically to the passenger
compartment of the Panamera.
Thanks to signal processing
technologies developed by BOSE®
for the automotive industry, it
has been possible to achieve opti -
mum acoustics by tailoring the system to suit the layout of the
vehicle interior.
The result is a balanced, faithfully
reproduced sound and captivating
360° acoustic experience deliv
-
ered to all four seat positions. It ’s just a pit y that, as the driver,
leaning back and closing your
eyes is not an option.
Your image of the world is also 360°.

Personality | Comfort
The sound developed by our
research centre in Weissach is
amplified by a sound from Berlin.
We’re talking about Burmester
®,
a bespoke manufacturer based
in Berlin and one of the most re -
spected premium audio manufac -
turers worldwide. The Burmester
®
High - End Surround Sound System
is available as an option for all
Panamera models.
The technologies behind the
system are from the finest of
Burmester’s® premium home audio systems. State- of-the-art
and featured like this in a Porsche
for the first time. The extravagance
is uncompromising, the craf ts-
manship excellent, the sound
phenomenal. The system owes its
eminence to countless details,
and one goal: perfection in sound.
As early as the Panamera concept
phase, Porsche and Burmester
®
had already embarked on a close
collaboration in order to determine
the optimum installation locations
for the special loudspeakers.
Never before has such a large and
acoustically powerful total dia -
phragm surface area been used in
a production vehicle and integrated
to such perfection.
The system has 16 amplifier chan -
nels with a total output of more
than 1,000 wat ts, 16 loudspeakers
including an active subwoofer
with 300 -wat t class D amplifier,
a total diaphragm surface area of
more than 2,400 cm², and a
frequency response of 30 Hz to
20 kHz.
Conceptually, we have broken
en tire ly new ground. Typically
Porsche. Crossover technology
has been carried over more or
less unmodified from the home
audio sector. Analogue and digital
filters have been optimally defined
for their new installation location
and finely tuned af ter extensive
in-car audio testing.
The t weeters are ribbon -based
air motion transformers (AMT) that have been designed specifically
for the Panamera. For unmistak
-
ably fine, clear and undistorted
high-frequency sound reproduction
with excellent level stabilit y.
All loudspeaker housings are
perfectly matched and deliver
superior bass foundation, defini -
tion and impulse accuracy. As
yet unequalled, the result is a nat -ural and richly textured spatial
sound. All of which is achieved,
despite the system’s remarkably
low overall weight, thanks to

intelligent Burmester® light weight
technology.
The elegantly pure design with
galvanised surrounds and
Burmester® logos on selected loudspeakers make it clear that
the appeal of the Burmester
®
High - End Surround Sound System
is as much about the visual as it
is the audio.
‘Made in Germany’ is a sign of quality.
But, not just when it comes to sportscars.

® High-End Surround Sound System.

Climate control.
Climate control, with zonal regula -
tion in the front compartment, is
standard in all models. Tempera -
ture and airflow volume, speed
and direction can therefore be set
individually for the driver and front
passenger seat positions. An
active carbon filter traps particles,
pollen and odours and an auto -
matic air- recirculation function permanently monitors air qualit y,
reduces humidit y and switches
from fresh to recirculated air
when required. Even the glove
compartment is actively cooled
when necessary. With the ignition
switched of f, it is also possible
to use the residual heat of the
engine to heat the passenger
compartment for up to 20 min
-
utes. Four-zone climate control is avail
-
able for all models on request.
With this option, the driver has
access to separate controls for
both seat positions in the rear.
A control panel on the rear centre
console also enables the rear
passengers to select their own
climate control set tings for their
respective seat position, inde -
pendently of the set tings in the
front compartment.
Thermally and noise insulated
glass.
All Panamera models are equipped
as standard with tinted heat- insu -
lated glass and a grey top -tint
on the windscreen. Available as
an option is a thermally and noise
insulated glass for all round more
ef ficient reflection of infrared
radiation. Enjoy an even more pleasant climate and peace

and quiet in the passenger com -
partment.
Water-repellent side windows.
The front side windows of the
Panamera model range have been
treated with a water- repellent
coating so that not only water but also dirt runs away more easily,
thereby providing optimum visibil
-
it y even in poor weather. (Note:
surface finish requires occasional
renewal depending on vehicle
usage.)
You don’t need us to reiterate the correlation
between comfort and convenience.
Additional comfort and convenience features go hand in hand.
