Interior
The new Panamera models feature an
exquisite, clearly structured interior
offering a high degree of comfort.
Designed for driving pleasure and
long journeys, for four occupants and
their luggage. The concept may be
unorthodox for a saloon, but it’s typical
of a Panamera.

Of course, the same applies to the four
individual seats. Just as it does to the
sport y and highly ergonomic cockpit.
Five circular instruments with a high-
resolution colour display and the logical
grouping of controls enable fast and
direct access.
In the rear, even taller passengers will
find plent y of head- and legroom. The
rear seats fold down separately to

create space for larger items of luggage,
including your sports equipment.

You choose the colours and materials
yourself. An extensive selection of interior
colours, interior packages with various
woods, aluminium or carbon, and many
other personalisation options means that
your decision certainly won’t be an easy
one. But the result will be all the more
individual. For more information, please
refer to page 110 onwards.
To get on in life,
sometimes all you need to do is sit back and relax.

Get ting where you want to be sooner –
whether it ’s your office or your holiday
destination. More than likely, though, it’s
the future.

Typically for Porsche, it begins in the
garage. Or, to be more specific, at the
vehicle charge port of the new Panamera S
E-Hybrid – a parallel plug-in hybrid,
and also the next major step in hybrid
technology. The future begins now. With
e-mobility. A total concept that combines
a progressive drive system, a variet y of
charging capabilities, intelligent mobile
online services and efficient performance.
The new lithium-ion-based high-voltage
bat tery of the Panamera S E-Hybrid has
more energy content than nickel metal
hydride bat teries and can be charged
from an external source. On electric
power alone, the
Panamera S E-Hybrid
has a range of up to 36 km in the NEDC
and reaches a maximum speed of
135 km/ h. That ’s with an average fuel
consumption of merely 3.1 l/100 km.
However, reducing fuel consumption is
just one of the goals that we are aiming
to achieve with advanced hybrid
technology. Ever yday practicalit y and
sport y driving pleasure are also top of our list. For more information on the

new Panamera S E-Hybrid, please refer
to pages 30 –37.

There are innovations under the bonnet
of the other members of the Panamera
family, too. Like a brand new generation
of engine in the Panamera S and
Panamera 4S. Thanks to some intelligent
downsizing, the 3.0-litre twin-turbo V6
engine produces more power output than
the naturally aspirated engine of the
previous generation – and delivers a
lower rate of fuel consumption at the
same time.
Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK, p.
58) is
now fit ted as standard in all models with
a petrol engine. The power of the
Panamera S E-Hybrid is transmit ted to
the road by the 8-speed Tiptronic S.
Prepped and ready for the future of
the automobile and the digital age –
Porsche Car Connect (p. 100). Porsche
Car Connect is a smartphone app that
enables you to access various data
relating to your car and control certain
functions remotely. In conjunction with
the comprehensive online services
option, you can see all the important
information about your Panamera
whenever you wish – and not only when
you’re behind the wheel.
The new, optional LED main headlights
including Porsche Dynamic Light System
Plus (PDLS Plus, p. 74) help to ensure
even bet ter visibilit y. And with Lane
Change Assist (p. 105), the lane departure
warning (p. 105), speed limit
display
(p. 105), adaptive cruise control including
Porsche Active Safe (PAS, p. 102), and
Surround View (p. 102), a wealth of new
assistance systems is available to you.
Systems to lower your adrenaline level –
on the odd occasion.
Saving fuel needn’t mean
cutting back on the adrenaline.

Display concept.
The conventional analogue speedometer
in the instrument cluster – traditionally to
the left of the rev counter – is replaced
by a solution fully tailored to the new
Panamera S E-Hybrid. The power meter
displays the drive power of the system.
It tells you whether your Panamera S
E-Hybrid is being driven electrically or
in hybrid mode and informs you of the
recuperation power generated under
braking. The colour display in the
instrument cluster shows the energy
flow in the system as well as selected
driving statistics. In the optional Porsche Communication
Management (PCM, p. 92), you can view
at any time a detailed diagram of the
vehicle with energy flow and statistics

on the amount of driving without the
combustion engine.

E-mobility services.
E-mobilit y services* are part of the
optional Porsche Car Connect (p. 100).
They enable you to call up all the
important information about your
Panamera S E-Hybrid remotely via a
smartphone app, for example remaining
charge time, bat ter y charge status
or a visual depiction of electric range. You can also set a charge timer with
customisable charging times.


You can now even control the air
conditioning of your Panamera S E-Hybrid
from your smartphone as desired. In
this way, it is possible to heat or cool the
interior in advance of any journey – with
the vehicle stationary and the combus -
tion engine switched off. Thanks to
e-mobility services and your smartphone,
you can also locate your Panamera S
E-Hybrid at any time from any place. You will find detailed information about
e-mobility at www.porsche.com or in our
separate e-mobility brochure.

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.

Steering and Power steering Plus.
The steering system with its variable
steering ratio is precise and direct.
Around the straight ahead position, such
as when on the motorway, the ratio is less
direct with no loss of agilit y or feedback
from the road. When the steering wheel is
turned further, the steering ratio becomes
more direct, allowing easier cornering and
parking. For even greater driving comfort,
speed-sensitive Power steering Plus is
available as an option. At high speeds,
the firmer steering ratio enables precision
steering manoeuvres; at low speeds,
the ratio automatically adjusts to facilitate
parking. Power steering Plus is standard in the
Panamera S E-Hybrid and optional for

all other Panamera models.
Steering wheels.
The multifunction steering wheel is
standard in all models and available on
request for the Panamera GTS at no
extra cost. It features t wo ergonomic
gearshift switches for manual gear
selection and of fers convenient control
of audio, telephone and navigation
functions as well as the on-board
computer. In conjunction with PDK and
the Sport Chrono Package (p. 68), you
will find an additional display above the airbag module for the SPORT and

SPORT PLUS modes and the Launch
Control function.
The SportDesign steering wheel with
gearshift paddles is fit ted as standard
in the Panamera GTS and available
as an option for all other models. It is
distinguished by its striking dual-arm
design. Upon request, it is possible to
have the SportDesign steering wheel
finished in black Alcantara.
We haven’t reinvented the wheel.

Porsche Active Suspension
Management (PASM).
PASM is an electronic damping control
system and it actively and continuously
adjusts the damping force on each
wheel, based on road conditions and
driving st yle. This reduces body
movement and therefore increases
comfort in all four seats.

How does PASM work? By means of a
but ton on the centre console, you can
select one of the three modes: Comfort,
SPORT or SPORT PLUS. Sensors record
the body movements that accompany powerful acceleration, braking and

rapid cornering or uneven road surfaces.
The control unit evaluates the driving
conditions and modifies the damping
force on each of the wheels in
accordance with the selected mode. You
can feel the result: increased driving
stability, more comfort and improved
performance.
Optional for the Panamera and
Panamera 4, standard in all other models.

Keep your relationship intimate.
Adaptive air suspension.
Adaptive air suspension enhances both
driving dynamics and comfort at the
same time. It comprises a levelling
system, a manual lift function, ride-height
adjustment capability and the ability to
vary the spring rate.

The purpose of the levelling system is
to keep the vehicle level constant auto -
matically, regardless of load distribution.
For manoeuvring, the manual lift function
enables you to raise the vehicle body
by 20 mm to avoid the risk of grounding. When you select the SPORT PLUS
chassis programme, the ride height
drops to Low Level (–
25 mm, or – 15 mm
in the Panamera GTS). At the same time,
a harder spring rate 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.
Standard for the Panamera S E-Hybrid,
Panamera GTS and Panamera Turbo,
optional for the other models.
Wheels and Tyre Pressure Monitoring
(TPM).
The Panamera and Panamera 4 are
fit ted as standard with 18-inch Panamera
wheels, the Panamera S, 4S and
Panamera S E-Hybrid with 18-inch
Panamera S wheels. The wheels on all
models 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 GTS and Panamera Turbo
are equipped with 19-inch Panamera
Turbo II wheels as standard. The t yre
sizes are 255/45 ZR 19 at the front, 285/40 ZR 19 at the rear. A range of
optional 19- and 20 -inch wheels is

also available (p. 128/129). In addition,
all-season tyres are optionally available
for all 19- and 20 -inch wheels.

Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM) sends
warnings to the on-board computer’s
display screen in the event of excessive
pressure loss.

TPM is standard in the Panamera models
(optional for Panamera and Panamera 4).19 - inch Panamera Turbo ll wheel

SPORT button.
The SPORT but ton, which is fit ted as
standard, enables you to select a setup
that favours either comfort or sport y
performance. At the push of a but ton,
the electronic engine management
system switches the engine mapping to
offer a sharper response and engine
dynamics that are more direct.

With the gearbox in automatic mode,
upshifts take place at higher engine
speeds and downshifts are swifter. In
addition, Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) and Porsche
Dynamic Chassis Control (PDCC) also
switch to SPORT mode to deliver harder
damping and more direct steering and,
therefore, even more agile cornering.

Sport Chrono Package.
The Sport Chrono Package helps to
provide an even sportier setup. Included
in the package are a digital and analogue
stopwatch, the SPORT PLUS button,
the longitudinal and lateral acceleration
display and a performance display in
PCM for displaying lap times.
It used to be the timetable that decided the sports period.
Now it’s your turn.

Performance enhancement systems.
The SPORT PLUS but ton on the centre
console is used to activate SPORT PLUS
mode. The engine becomes even more
responsive. The rev- limiter is adjusted to
a harder set ting (except in the Panamera S
E- Hybrid). Vehicles with Porsche Active
Suspension Management (PASM) switch
to SPORT PLUS mode for harder damping
and more direct steering. Models with
adaptive air suspension drop to ‘low level’
and switch to a stiffer spring rate. In
SPORT PLUS mode, the trigger threshold
for PSM is raised for increased
longitudinal and lateral dynamics. The stopwatch mounted on the dashboard
displays recorded driving time or can be
used as a conventional clock. Porsche
Communication Management (PCM) has

a special performance display to view,
store and evaluate lap times or other
driving times.

When combined with PDK, the Sport
Chrono Package has t wo additional
functions: the shift times in SPORT PLUS
mode become even shorter, the gear
changes even sportier. The second
function is Launch Control, designed to produce optimum acceleration from a
standing start.


For the Panamera Turbo, increased power
output is a mat ter of principle. In this
model, the Sport Chrono Package takes
performance to another level with the
overboost function. Whenever you
accelerate at full throt tle in SPORT or
SPORT PLUS mode, boost pressure will
be temporarily increased by up to 10 %.
This significantly increases the maximum
torque, delivers a short-term complacent
700 to 770 Nm – and puts a smile on
the driver’s face. Standard in Panamera GTS, optional for
the other Panamera models and only in
conjunction with Porsche Communication
Management (PCM).
