Balance | Environment
Fuel.
All Porsche models – including the
Panamera – are already designed
to operate on fuels with an ethanol
content of up to 10 %. Ethanol
has a positive impact on the CO
2 balance since the plants grown
for the production of this biofuel
also absorb CO
2 from the atmo
-
sphere.
The release of hydrocarbons
from the fuel system has been
minimised thanks in no small part
to the active carbon filter and the
multilayered material from which
the fuel tank is made. All fuel lines
are made from multilayered plastic,
steel or aluminium.
Noise.
The Panamera complies with
all applicable noise regulations
without any form of engine en -
capsulation. To achieve this,
noises are eliminated at source. Engine parts are stif f, moving
parts are light weight and toler-
ances are kept to a minimum.
No nuisance noise to be heard,
just the characteristic Porsche
sound.
Servicing.
Long service intervals are not
only more convenient, they
reduce ownership costs. They
also promote a more sparing
use of consumables and replace -
ment parts, which is in both our
interests. For you, lower costs
and saved time are t wo major
benefits, but perhaps the greatest
benefit is for the environment.
For full details of service intervals,
please refer to the separate price
list.
