Concept | Panamera Turbo
Four doors. Four seats. Eight
cylinders. Up to this point, others
may even have been able to
keep up. But then comes a point
of dif ference in the form of the
Panamera Turbo. It not only joins
a long line of Porsche Turbo
models, it leads the way with its
extensive standard equipment
Meet the pinnacle of the Panamera range.

combined with a host of features
that are exclusive to a Turbo.
What about the aesthetics?
19 -inch Panamera Turbo wheels
and red brake calipers, naturally.
Twin dual-tube tailpipes in the
unmistakable Turbo design. Four
LED day time running lights in each headlight unit with separate
direction indicators. The front
apron features horizontal slats
and longitudinal struts in the air
intakes. The air outlets in the wing
behind the front wheels also

have slats. Five, to be exact,
and all in a chrome finish. The auto - deploying t wo -piece rear
spoiler is t ypically characteristic.
The Panamera Turbo is powered
by a 4.8-litre V8 t win -turbo engine
that generates an output of

368 kW (500 hp) and 700 Nm.
The seven-speed Porsche Doppel -
kupplung (PDK, p. 55) is fit ted
as standard, as is Porsche Traction
Management (PTM, p. 60) with
active all-wheel drive and an elec -
tronic and map-controlled multi -
plate clutch.
Performance is exemplary. The
Panamera Turbo races from 0 to
62 mph (100 km/ h) in just 4.2 sec-
onds and has a top speed of
188 mph (303 km/ h).
Also fit ted as standard in the
Panamera Turbo is adaptive air
suspension including Porsche
Active Suspension Management
(PASM) with three damping, sus -
pension and ride-height set tings
ranging from comfort to extra
sport y (p. 66 – 69). Increased
performance or greater comfort?
The choice is yours. Simply press
the but ton.
And what about the interior?
Typically Porsche with all the
usual Turbo features. A perfect
combination of sportiness and
comfort. As standard equipment,
the interior features electrically
adjustable
14-way power seats
with memory package in the front
(p. 104), with seat heating front
and rear.
Also standard are the
smooth-finish leather and walnut
interior packages. Alternatively,
the
anthracite birch, tineo or
brushed aluminium interior
packages are available at no
extra cost.
Moreover, the Porsche Commu -
nication Management (PCM)
with
navigation module – standard
on
all models – has been combined
with the BOSE
® Surround Sound
System (p. 114).
The Burmester®
High-End
Surround Sound System
(p. 116) is also available as an
option.

Adaptive air suspension.
The Panamera Turbo is equipped
with adaptive air suspension and
PASM as standard. This combined
system enhances both driving
dynamics and comfort at the
same time. For all other Panamera
models, adaptive air suspension
is available as an option. It comprises a levelling system,

a manual lif t function, ride-height
adjustment capabilit y and the
abilit y to vary the spring rate.
The purpose of the levelling
system is to automatically keep
the vehicle level constant,
re
gardless of load distribution.
For manoeuvring, the manual
lif t function enables you to raise
the vehicle body by 20 mm to minimise the risk of grounding,
e.
g. when entering garages.*
When you select the ‘SPORT
PLUS’ chassis programme, the
height of the body automatically
drops to Low Level (–25 mm). At
the same time, a harder spring
rating is achieved through a
reduction in the amount of air
stored in the air suspension.
In simple terms, it ’s a sports
chassis at the push of a but ton.
High Level.
At 20 mm above Normal Level,
this is intended for driving over
ramps and into garage entrances.
The chassis automatically reverts
to Normal Level as soon as
the vehicle reaches a speed of
18 mph (30 km/ h).
Normal Level.
The usual height for the system
with a maximum ground clearance
of 144 mm above DIN unladen
weight.
Low Level.
This is 25 mm below Normal
Level with a maximum ground
clearance of 119 mm. In ‘SPORT
PLUS’ mode, the vehicle body
drops to Low Level and a harder
spring rate is set. This assures
optimum roadholding with a
sport y driving st yle.
Performance | Chassis
* The vehicle must not be driven at High
Level on public roads as the maximum
permissible installation height of the
reflector units may then be exceeded.

Airbags.
frame and the side windows from
the A-pillar to the C-pillar, and
side impact protection elements
in the doors. Side airbags in the
rear compartment are available as
an option.
The headrests are integrated into
the backrest. Also featured as
standard are an energy-absorbing
steering column, three - point
seat-belts at all seats, height
adjustment and seat-belt force
limiters in the front and seat-
belt pretensioners in the rear,
energy-absorbing elements in the
dashboard and flame-retardant
materials throughout the interior.
A rollover sensor automatically
activates the curtain airbags
and seat belt pretensioners if the
vehicle threatens to overturn.
In all Panamera models, we use
advanced airbag technology in
the form of full-size driver and
front passenger airbags which are
inflated in t wo stages depending
on the severit y and t ype of acci
-
dent (e.g. frontal or of fset frontal).
Two sensors in the front end
allow a crash to be detected and
evaluated far sooner and with
considerably greater accuracy. In
less serious accidents, the air -
bags are only partially inflated,
thereby minimising discomfort to
the occupants.
As standard, the knee airbags for
the driver and front passenger
are supplemented by the Porsche
Side Impact Protection System
(POSIP). This comprises t wo -
chamber side airbags for the
pelvis and thorax regions, curtain
airbags along the entire roof

The interior.
In terms of Porsche design, the
Panamera models are, admit tedly,
a lit tle dif ferent from what we
are used to. It ’s no wonder, as
they are the first Porsche vehicles
to have four individual seats
(p. 106). But that ’s not all.
What strikes you immediately
about the front is the elevated
centre console. It doesn’t look like
a saloon does it? That ’s good,
because it does look distinctly like
a sportscar. Even more impor -
tantly, it handles like one. This is
thanks in no small part to the
extremely short distance bet ween
the gear lever and steering wheel
– to be more precise, the three-
spoke sports steering wheel with
smooth -finish leather rim, which
is fit ted as standard and adjusts
for height and reach. A heated
steering wheel is available on
request.
Also available as an option for all
models is the three-spoke multi-
function steering wheel, which has
but tons for the convenient opera -
tion of a range of radio and, where
applicable, navigation and tele -
phone functions. It is finished
in smooth -finish leather or, in
conjunction with steering wheel
heating, any finish of your choice
from walnut, tineo, anthracite
birch, Yachting Mahogany or
carbon.
With these finishes and a selec -
tion of other materials of fered
in the form of predefined interior
packages, there is a wealth of
ways for you to personalise the
interior. Additionally, there are
seven interior colours and five
t wo -tone combinations in several leathers. So you can create a
sport y or luxurious feel, or even a
blend of both.
All the frequently used controls on
the centre console are grouped
logically together to enable you to
select individual functions quickly
and easily.
Just how much at tention we have
paid to providing space in the
passenger compartment can be
seen in the details. The Panamera
models of fer a variet y of storage
options, e.g. in the doors and
centre console. The front centre
armrest contains a convenient
cupholder. Alternatively, at no
extra cost, you can have t wo addi
-
tional fold- out cupholders installed
above the glove compartment
to supplement the t wo fit ted as
standard in the rear compartment.

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.

Four adults, luggage for four, one
sportscar. It really does work.
The luggage compartments in the
Panamera, Panamera 4, Panamera S
and Panamera 4S models have
a capacit y of 445 litres. In con -junction with the BOSE
® Surround
Sound System or Burmester
®
High-End Surround Sound System,
they of fer 432 litres of luggage
space, equal to the luggage
capacit y of the Panamera Turbo.
Ample space for four suitcases from the Porsche Design Driver’s
Selection range, for example.
What makes the storage space
special is that the four suitcases
can be stowed in such a way
that you can remove whichever
one you choose with ease – no reshuf fling required. They can
then be concealed using the
retractable
luggage compartment
cover (fitted
as standard) or
the optional re movable luggage
compartment cover.
The key to this solution is the
extraordinary height of the
luggage compartment achieved
through the special geometry
of the rear lid and the large rear
screen. The wide opening angle of
the rear lid facilitates convenient
loading.
A rarely encountered feature
in this vehicle class is the fully
or split-folding rear seats. In the
cargo position, the available
luggage capacit y in the new
Panamera and Panamera 4 mod -
els and in the Panamera S and 4S
increases to 1,263 litres. In con -
junction with the BOSE
® Surround
Sound System or Burmester®
High-End Surround Sound System,
the luggage compartment has a
capacit y of 1,250 litres, equal to
that of the Panamera Turbo. The
Panamera and Panamera S have a
total payload of up to 605 kg, the
Panamera 4 and 4S 580 kg and
the Panamera Turbo 530 kg.

Perhaps even more important than
its capacit y alone is the luggage
compartment ’s versatilit y. The rear
seats fold independently, allowing
various transport configurations
– even if one of the rear seats is
occupied. Stowage nets in the
side trim panels are provided
for smaller items. A ski bag is available as an option and, to
accommodate it, the centre
section bet ween the rear seats
folds separately.
In the back: lots of room.
Right at the back: even more.
