Direct fuel injection (DFI).
With millisecond precision, DFI injects 
fuel at up to 120 bar directly into the 
combustion chamber by means of elec-
tromagnetically actuated injection valves, 
thus ensuring homogeneous distribution 
of the air/fuel mixture, and, therefore,  effective combustion. As the mixture 
 
is prepared directly in the cylinders,   
DFI improves the internal cooling of   
the combustion chambers compared 
with that of a manifold injection system. 
The achievable compression ratio of 
12.5:1 helps to ensure a high level of 
engine efficiency.
VarioCam Plus.
The Panamera GTS is also equipped 
with VarioCam Plus which automatically 
adjusts the intake camshafts and 
switches the lift of the intake valves.   
In the middle and low load ranges,   
low valve lifts with advanced timing 
reduce fuel consumption and exhaust 
emissions and improve smooth  
running. High torque and maximum   
output are achieved through high 
valve lifts and retarded timing.
How does this benefit you? Extra-
ordinary acceleration power with   
comparatively low fuel consumption.
Auto start/stop function.
The auto start/stop function is also 
standard in the Panamera GTS. If, for 
example, you stop at traffic lights and 
keep your foot on the brake pedal, the 
system will automatically switch the 
engine off. This fuel-saving system 
restarts the engine as soon as you 
release the brakes. 
A key advantage is that there is no 
need for you to change your driving 
habits. You can simply carry on as   
normal. All audio and communication 
systems remain switched on and the 
climate control continues to maintain 
your selected temperature, despite the 
engine being switched off. The engine 
restarts if more power or extra cooling 
output is required.
The auto start /stop function can be 
activated and deactivated using a   
separate button. The function may 
[  01  ] Sports exhaust system
remain inactive under particular cir
-
cumstances, e.g. in very high outside 
temperatures, on extreme uphill   
gradients, or if bat tery charge is low, 
and will be deactivated if SPORT or 
SPORT PLUS mode is activated (p. 28).
Sports exhaust system.
The Panamera GTS is equipped as stand -
ard with the sports exhaust system  
featuring tailpipes painted in matt black. 
The exhaust system is made from  
long-life stainless-steel alloys. The   
powerful primary and main catalytic   
converters heat up rapidly and help   
to deliver ef fective emissions control. 
When a separate control but ton is   
pressed or SPORT or SPORT PLUS   
mode is activated, the sports exhaust   
system switches to a characteristic   
motorsport sound, eclipsing even that   
of the other Panamera models.
