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).
