2010 PORSCHE PANAMERA tyre pressure

You could choose to drive a sport y
saloon. Or a sport y MPV. Alterna -
tively, you could choose to drive a
four-seater Porsche. Just like the
Panamera S or Panamera 4S, with
per formance figures to match
many a sport y t wo -seater.
The S models are recognisable by
the silver- coloured brake calipers
behind the 18-inch Panamera S
wheels and by their round t win
Four doors.
But a classic sportscar nonetheless.
The Panamera S and the Panamera 4S.
tailpipes. The side windows have
a chrome- coloured border. In the
interior, the silver- coloured rev
counter dial is visually striking.
On the Panamera S, the double
slats on the side air intakes are
black. On the Panamera 4S, they
are titanium-coloured.
Both models have a 4.8-litre
naturally aspirated V8 engine that
produces 294 kW (400 hp)

and 500 Nm of torque. On the
Panamera S, power is transmit ted
to the rear wheels by the standard
6 -speed manual gearbox. The
7-speed Porsche Doppelkupplung
(PDK) is available as an option. On
the Panamera 4S, PDK is standard
and transmits drive force to the
all-wheel drive of Porsche Trac-
tion Management (PTM, p. 60) –
also fit ted as standard. The Panamera S accelerates from
0 to 62 mph (100 km/ h) in just
5.6 seconds, with a top speed of
177 mph (285 km/ h). With the
optional PDK, figures of 5.4
sec
-
onds and 176 mph (283 km/ h)
are
achieved. The Panamera 4S
completes the sprint in only
5.0 seconds and has a top speed
of 175 mph (282 km/ h).
Steel spring suspension with
Porsche Active Suspension Man -
agement
(PASM, p. 66) is fit ted as
standard in both models. Adaptive
air suspension, 20 -inch wheels
and a sports exhaust system are
just three of many options you can
select to personalise your vehicle.
Safet y features include Bi-Xenon
headlights with dynamic range
adjustment (p. 80), which provide
more effective illumination of
the road and are fit ted as stand -
ard on both models. Also standard
is Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM,
p. 65) and the automatically
dimming mirrors.
A high level of interior comfort is
assured by the automatic climate control system and the heated
seats fit ted as standard in the
front, with seat heating optional
for the rear. Seat ventilation is
available on request. The partial
leather interior has the same
specification as for the Panamera/
Panamera 4.
Porsche Communication Mana -
gement (PCM) with navi gation
module is standard on both the Panamera S and Panamera 4S.
The BOSE
® Surround Sound

System (p. 114) or Burmester
®
High-End Surround Sound System
(p. 116) are both optional.
These options are only the
be ginning when it comes to

customising the Panamera S or
4S. Give your four-seater Porsche
your ver y own personal touch.

Suspension.
The front axle has a wide-spaced
aluminium double wishbone
arrangement with an aluminium subframe. The wide spacing
bet ween the wishbones keeps the
forces in the wheel suspension
low for precision wheel guidance
and excellent handling. The rear axle is an aluminium
multi-link setup. This axle design
minimises the pitching of the body
under acceleration and braking.
The high proportion of aluminium
used in the construction of the
axles reduces the weight of

the vehicle and of the unsprung
masses, helping to improve fuel
economy and increase agilit y.
Steering and Servotronic.
Precise and direct: describes a
t ypical Porsche steering system
–
with variable steering ratio.
Around the straight ahead position,
such as during motorway driving,
the ratio is less direct with no loss
of agilit y or feedback from the
road. When the steering wheel is
turned further, the ratio becomes
more direct, allowing easier cor -
nering and parking.
Servotronic, a speed-sensitive
power-steering system, is available
as an option for all Panamera
models. At high speeds, the steer -
ing is firm and responds with
extreme precision while steering comfort remains as high as you
would expect. At low speeds,

Servotronic’s ratio adjusts for
easy manoeuvring and parking.
Wheels and Tyre Pressure
Monitoring (TPM).
The new Panamera and Panamera 4
models are fit ted as standard with
18-inch Panamera wheels, the
Panamera S and 4S with 18-inch
Panamera S wheels. All wheels
are light weight alloys featuring a
classic sport y design. Tyre sizes
245/50 ZR 18 and 275/45 ZR 18
are fit ted to the front and rear,
respectively. The Panamera Turbo is equipped
with 19 -inch Panamera Turbo alloy
wheels as standard. The t yres
are slightly wider to cope with the
increased power output of this
model: 255/45 ZR 19 at the front,
285/40 ZR 19 at the rear.
A selection of 18-inch to 20 -inch
wheels is available from our range
of options (p. 147).
19-inch all-season t yres are
offered as an alternative at no
extra cost for all Panamera
models with standard or optional
19-inch wheels. A low-rolling
resistance version of these t yres
is available as an option*. The
three
main components of the
Panamera Turbo front axle
Panamera Turbo rear axle 19 - inch Panamera Turbo wheel
18 - inch Panamera S wheel
18 - inch Panamera wheel
t yre – the rubber compound, the
tread pat tern and the architec -
ture of the t yre substructure –
have been optimised to minimise
roll resistance and thus improve
fuel economy, with no ef fect on
comfort or performance compared
with the regular 19 -inch all-season
t yres.
For increased comfort and safet y,
Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM)
sends warnings to the on -board
computer’s display screen in
the event of low t yre pressure as
well as in the event of a loss of
pressure. The system is available
as an option for the Panamera
and Panamera 4 and is standard
in all other models.
* Available from 10/2010 at the earliest.

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.
