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.

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.

Drive concept.
The new Panamera Turbo is powered by a
4.8-litre t win-turbo V8 engine with direct
fuel injection (DFI, p. 53), VarioCam Plus
(p. 54) and charge-air cooling. It features
t wo turbochargers arranged in parallel –
one for each cylinder bank. Intake air is
compressed and then fed to the engine
by the respective charge-air cooler for
each cylinder strand.
Performance figures: 382 kW (520 hp)
at 6,000 rpm. The maximum torque of
700 Nm is achieved bet ween 2,250 and
4,500 rpm. Top speed is reached at
305 km/ h. The new Panamera Turbo
completes the sprint from 0 to 100 km/ h
in just 4.1 seconds.
With the Launch Control function of
the optional Sport Chrono Package
(p. 68), the clock stops even sooner at
3.9 seconds. An overboost function
temporarily increases the boost pressure
produced at full throt tle by up to 10 %.
Proof that supremacy is synonymous
with sheer fun.

Engines.
Increasing power output, reducing fuel
consumption. Brief fulfilled. With engines
characterised by sporty performance
and yet comparatively low energy
consumption and CO
2 emissions.
This has been achieved thanks to
technologies such as direct fuel injection
(DFI), VarioCam Plus or variable camshaft
control, turbocharging, recuperation,
the auto start/stop function, the coasting
function or the use of plug-in hybrid
technology. The engines are structurally
rigid and, thanks to aluminium cylinder
heads and magnesium valve covers (except the Panamera S E-Hybrid), they
are comparatively light weight. This helps
to ensure a decent weight-to -power
ratio and balanced weight distribution.
Let’s take the new engine generation of
the Panamera S and Panamera 4S as
an example. It may have been stripped
of t wo cylinders and its displacement
reduced by 1.8 litres compared with
that of its predecessor, but it has been
given a twin-turbocharger arrangement.
This is where the figures begin an
upward trend. Increased power output,
greater dynamics and enhanced
e f f ici e n cy.
Direct fuel injection (DFI).
With millisecond precision, DFI injects
fuel at up to 120 bar directly into the
combustion chamber by means of
electromagnetically actuated injection
valves. DFI also improves the internal
cooling of the combustion chamber by
having the mixture prepared directly in
the cylinder. The higher compression ratio
helps to deliver more output at the same
time as enhanced engine efficiency.

Your first impression of the Panamera
interior is the generous amount of comfort.
The second impression is one of sport y
lightness and excellent ergonomics. The
five round instruments have an integrated
4.8-inch colour screen. The centre console
ascends towards the front, shortening the
reach bet ween the steering wheel and the
gear selector. All the important controls
are arranged into logical groups to give
you quick access to important functions
without the need to browse through long
sub-menus.Smooth-finish leather, natural leather,
two-tone colour combinations, elegant
woods, aluminium and carbon – thanks
to these and many more personalisation
options, you can make your Panamera
even more sport y or even more
comfortable. Or both. In the Panamera
Turbo and Panamera GTS, the rooflining
is upholstered in Alcantara as standard
(optional for all other models). For
more detailed information about colours
and personalisation, please refer to
page 110 onwards.
There’s still nothing quite like being surrounded by your own four walls.
Even when you’re on the move.
Interior.
The Panamera models offer a variet y of
storage options, for example in the doors
and centre console. There is a cupholder
in the front centre armrest and t wo
cupholders in the rear compartment. On
request at no extra charge, it is possible
to have a further t wo fold- out cupholders
fitted above the glove compartment.
For extra storage space, a large centre
console is available as an option for
the rear compartment. It comes with a
230 -volt socket, an additional 12-volt
socket and preparation for a cooling compartment. The interior lighting
concept with switch- off delay is practical
and appealing. This includes illuminated
door handles and storage compartments
in the front, orientation lights, front
foot well lights and also reading lights
and interior lights – one of each for all
four seats.
