2013 PORSCHE PANAMERA brake

1011
When we st yle a sports car, we could
focus on the here and now and follow the
latest fashion. That would be fine until
the next season arrives. But, how exactly
do you create something that not only
appeals today but also captivates
tomorrow? We believe it ’s achieved by
focusing on principles, by preserving
the tried and tested and using this as
the plat form for new ideas.

With the new Panamera models, the
proportions and use of form are t ypical
of any Porsche. The wings are higher
than the bonnet and they add muscle
at the rear. The roof line tapers down to
the rear. Another typical Porsche characteristic

is the evolution of the design. It ’s more
p re c i s e . S h a r p e r. E d g i e r.

Visible examples include, for example,
the rest yled and once again enlarged air
intakes in the front end. These help to
provide optimum cooling of the engine
and brakes. The fact that they also look
great is a welcome bonus.

The rear end has been rest yled; its lines
sharpened. The rear screen is larger
and flat ter. It is also wider, just like the
automatically deploying spoiler. The LED
taillights have become narrower and
more crisply defined. Seen from the rear, the new Panamera models look more
modern and boast tauter proportions.


Another illuminating example of the
further development of the Panamera
design is the Bi-Xenon headlights fit ted
as standard. The day time running lights
have been integrated into the main
headlight units in the form of four LED
spotlights. Like the taillights, they now
appear slimmer. Together with the more
distinctive powerdome of the bonnet,
the new sideskirts and exterior mirrors,
they lend the Panamera models a more
sporty look. Traditional values and a forward-looking
design make a successful combination.
All that ’s missing is your own inter
pre-
tation of the Panamera. With 15 exterior
colours, an extensive range of leather
packages, wheels measuring up to
20 inches and many more options, you
can lend your model an unmistakeable
character.
One of our most important design tools:
timelessness.

Everyday driving requires practical cars
with space and comfort. But doesn’t your
heart crave a sports car? We don’t see a
contradiction.

Both models are driven by a newly
developed 3.0 -litre V6 engine with
twin-turbochargers. Engine power is
transmitted by Porsche Doppelkupplung
(PDK, p. 58). In the new Panamera 4S,
it is distributed to all four wheels via
the all-wheel drive of Porsche Traction
Management (PTM, p. 61). Bi-Xenon headlights, including daytime
running lights with four integral LED
spotlights, are fit ted as standard on all
models. The same applies to
Porsche
Active Suspension Management (PASM,
p. 65) – an electronic damping control
system – and the Tyre Pressure Monitoring
( T PM, p. 6 4).

From the outside, the new Panamera S
models are recognisable by the silver-
coloured brake calipers, 18-inch
Panamera S wheels and the round t win
tailpipes of the exhaust system.
Of course, you could find other ways to get to the office.
But why should you?

The new Panamera S and the new Panamera 4S.
In the interior, the rev counter dial face in
Silver Grey is another hallmark. Automatic
climate control and heated front seats are
fit ted as standard to provide excellent
comfort. The partial leather interior is also
standard. The seat squab surfaces, inner
backrest sur faces and the inner side
bolsters are all upholstered in embossed
leather.

Many roads lead to your destination. But
which ones take you further? To a new
future? With a sports car for the road and
for the 21st century?

E-mobilit y is the next big step. With the
Panamera S E-Hybrid we are bringing to
the road a total concept that net works
the car and its driver in an intelligent way.
Its performance puts most sports cars to
shame. Yet its fuel consumption is far
below the rate you would usually expect
of a sports car.

Still one of the most fascinating destinations of any journey:
new territory.

The new Panamera S E-Hybrid.
In the new Panamera S E-Hybrid,
innovative bat tery technology and a
powerful electric motor herald a lit tle
revolution in alternative drives: driving
pleasure. We round off our concept with
practical solutions, which we’ve realised
with e-mobility services* – smartphone
access and control functionalities – and
with practical charging systems. Now you
can top up your car’s energy levels by
plugging it into an electrical socket using
the Porsche Universal Charger (AC)
provided as standard. For an all-electric
range of up to 36 km (in NEDC). You will find more information about the drive
concept, charging options and e-mobility
services in our separate e-mobility
brochure. Drive forces are transmit ted as
standard by the 8-speed Tiptronic S
(p. 58). Also fit ted as standard are the
adaptive air sus
pen sion with Porsche
Active Suspension Management (PASM,
p. 65) and the speed-sensitive Power
steering Plus (p. 62).

The Panamera S E-Hybrid maintains its
visual identit y with the customary
‘e-hybrid’ logo on the front doors, the ‘
Panamera S’ logo on the rear hatch with
an Acid Green surround, the same as the
needles of the newly developed power
meter in the centre of the instrument
cluster. The brake calipers are also
finished in Acid Green as standard. The
features it shares with the S model –
the exterior design and the exquisite
styling of the interior – are similarly
characteristic. It almost goes without
saying that a comprehensive range of
personalisation options is available.
These are listed from page 110 onwards.

Drive concept.
The Panamera S E-Hybrid is a parallel
plug-in hybrid. This means that it can be
powered by the combustion engine alone,
by the electric machine alone or by both
units working together. In this way, it is
able to exploit the power generated by
both propulsion units. It ’s a concept
that ’s been proven since 2011. What ’s
new is that the high-voltage bat tery is
recharged in around 3.8 hours via direct
connection to an electricit y socket or,
whilst driving, through the process of
brake energy recovery known as
recuperation, or via the combustion
engine. Thanks to innovative lithium-ion
technology, its capacit y of 9.4 kWh
means that it also stores much more
energy. The battery is maintenance-free
and covered by a six-year warrant y.

The 3.0 -litre supercharged V6 engine
generates 245 kW (333 hp), the electric
machine 70 kW (95 hp). Combined, they
deliver 306 kW (416 hp) to the road at 5,500 rpm. With both drives working
together, the new Panamera S E-Hybrid
accelerates from 0 to 100 km/ h in just
5.5
seconds. Fuel consumption (NEDC)
is remarkably low at an average of
3.1 l/100 km, as is the CO
2 emissions
figure of 71 g / km.

The operating range of the hybrid drive
begins with emission-free and quiet
driving up to a maximum speed of around
135 km/ h and a range of approximately
36 km (in NEDC). The combustion engine
is fired automatically when necessary
as determined by the operating strategy
or actively in response to the driver
depressing the accelerator pedal beyond
a specially defined pressure point. The
kick-down point, however, enables the
maximum power output available from
both propulsion units to be purposefully
exploited as and when the driver chooses.
In e-boost mode, the combustion engine
provides assistance for the electric
drive – providing a sport y shunt into the
future. In coasting mode, the combustion
engine is decoupled to allow the car to
glide for some distance under its own
momentum – thereby further reducing
the fuel consumption.

In summary, the E-hybrid concept
promises one thing above all: sporty
performance with utmost efficiency.
The workings of the combustion engine,
electric machine and high -voltage bat ter y
are synchronised by the electronic engine
management. All processes run smoothly
and harmoniously, leaving you to
concentrate on what mat ters the most:
driving.

The new Panamera models reconcile
contradictions. They are vitalised by the
conflict bet ween comfort and dynamics
and bet ween sport y performance and
ef ficiency. Can three let ters intensif y
this conflict? The answer is seen on
race tracks and on roads. That ’s where
Porsche has writ ten the abbreviation
GTS into history – and is how the
new Panamera GTS has become the
thoroughbred athlete of the family.


The figures sum it up: 324 kW (440 hp)
power output and a maximum torque of
520 Nm. The 4.8-litre naturally aspirated V8 engine with ram air induction is
extremely responsive. 7-speed Porsche
Doppelkupplung (PDK) and the active

all-wheel drive of Porsche Traction
Management (PTM) transmit the engine
power of the new Panamera GTS adeptly
to the tarmac. The sports exhaust
system and the adaptive air suspension
with ‘normal level’ lowered by 10 mm
are fit ted as standard. The brake system,
wheels, front end and four-way rear
spoiler have been carried over from
the Panamera Turbo. The sideskirts are
st yled in mat t black. This is driving pleasure the GTS way –
accompanied by a thunderous
soundtrack.


The sport y characteristics of the new
Panamera GTS continue seamlessly into
the interior in the form of leather and
Alcantara and the ‘GTS’ logo in the rev
counter, on the headrests and on the
door sill guards in brushed aluminium.
Alcantara is the material used for the
seat centres of the adaptive Sports
seats, the armrests of the centre console
and the rooflining. The SportDesign steering wheel is fit ted as standard.

On request, it is possible to have the
rim finished in black Alcantara.

Two optional trim packages are available
in conjunction with the black Alcantara.
They further emphasise the sport y
at titude of the interior. The seat belts
and the stitching on the dashboard, door
waist rails, seats, and the armrests on
the centre console and doors are in
Carmine Red or GT Silver. The headrests
of all four seats are embroidered with
the ‘GTS’ logo in the same colour.
How about some extra zing?

Supreme performance can take the
breath away. Or it can force us to
keep calm and breathe deeply. It ’s like
sit ting behind the wheel of the new
Panamera Turbo.

Here, comfort and sportiness intertwine
without compromise. Its 4.8-litre t win-
turbo V8 engine delivers 382 kW (520 hp)
and offers a maximum torque of 700 Nm
bet ween 2,250 and 4,500 rpm. The
new 19-inch Panamera Turbo II wheels
afford a glimpse of the brake system
and its red brake calipers.
520 hp unleashes a mighty force.
The kind to put a smile on your face.

The new Panamera Turbo.
The twin dual-tube tailpipes are in the
unmistakable Turbo design. Just like
the chrome- coloured air outlets behind
the front wheels.
The front end features large air intakes to
increase the volume of cooling air, while
the four-way rear spoiler helps to reduce
lift at the rear axle.

Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK, p. 58) is
fit ted as standard, as is Porsche Traction
Management (PTM, p. 61) with active
all-wheel drive and an electronic and map - controlled multi - plate clutch.
Displays in the instrument cluster and
Porsche Communication Management
(PCM, p. 92) inform you of the
longitudinal and lateral acceleration
forces currently acting on the vehicle.
Integrated as standard, the adaptive air
suspension including Porsche Active
Suspension Management (PASM, p.
65)
enhances sport y per formance –
or comfort. At the push of a but ton.

In the interior, the Turbo presents its own
interpretation of the sport y st yle that characterises any Porsche. It achieves
this with electric eight-way power seats
(front) with memory package (p. 88),

and seat heating (p. 91) for the driver,
front passenger and also in the rear; and
with an interior in smooth-finish leather
and the walnut interior package. Porsche
Communication Management (PCM)
including navigation module and BOSE
®
Surround Sound System (p. 98) are fit ted
as standard. The High-End Surround
Sound System from Burmester
® (p. 98)
is available as an option.

VarioCam Plus.
VarioCam Plus is a two-in-one engine
concept for adjusting the intake and
exhaust camshafts and switching the
lift of the intake valves. The system
differentiates between driver inputs that
typify normal, everyday driving and those
inputs that demand maximum power.
Valve operation is then adapted
automatically to prevailing conditions.
This results in instant acceleration and
extremely smooth running as well as
extraordinary acceleration power with
comparatively low fuel consumption.
Standard in the Panamera models with
petrol engine (except the Panamera S
E-Hybrid).

Variable camshaft control.
In the V6 combustion engine of the
new Panamera S E-Hybrid, fully variable
camshaft control is used to adjust the
intake camshaft timing. The result is
high specific output and high torque –
even at low engine speeds.

Auto/start stop function.
The auto start /stop function still works
in the familiar way. As soon as you come
to a halt and keep your foot on the brake
pedal, the system will automatically
stop the engine. This fuel-saving system
restarts the engine the moment you
release the brakes.

What’s new, however, is that the engine
now switches off as you approach traffic
lights. 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 automatically if the energy
needs of the auxiliary equipment can
no longer be met by the energy saved
in the bat tery. In all models (except
the Panamera S E-Hybrid), the auto
start /stop function can be activated and
deactivated using a separate but ton.
Coasting.
The coasting function available with
Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK) enables
you to save even more fuel where the
situation allows.* The engine is decoupled
from the transmission to prevent
deceleration caused by engine braking.
The Panamera S E-Hybrid goes one step
further and switches off the engine
completely. In this way, optimum use
is made of the vehicle’s momentum,
allowing it to coast for longer distances.
This achieves a noticeable reduction
in fuel consumption with no impact on
comfort or sporty performance.
