Introducing the Porsche Panamera
The Porsche Panamera is proudly presented by the brand as a sports car with four seats. It is fast, dynamic and achieves performance figures that are simply unrivalled in the saloon car segment.
Not only does the Panamera carry unquestionable sports car credentials, the unique body shape also offers generous amounts of interior space, a large cargo capacity and plenty of comfort for both the driver and passengers.
Also available as an estate in the form of the Panamera Sport Turismo, there are several different Panamera models to choose from depending on your requirements. Available to order now, you can also specify your Panamera with Porsche's latest E-Hybrid powertrain.
Design and Practicality
Meticulously engineered as a sporty saloon, Panamera breaks the mould in terms of styling, with its athletic, taut roof line echoing the ones found on the Porsche's two-door, two-seat models. At the rear you'll find a charismatic full-width light strip, LED taillights and an extending rear spoiler.
Because it has two rear doors as well as a hatchback style tailgate, interior space and cargo capacity is far superior to a two-door car. The Panamera can seat four adults in total comfort, and the boot is up to 495 litres in size - more than enough for golf clubs, shopping trips and weekends away with the family.
Further enhancing the practicality levels is the Panamera Sport Turismo, which has a larger boot as well as a four-plus-one seating layout.
Technology and Safety
Step inside the Panamera, and you are greeted by an interior that the manufacturer describes as 'typically Porsche', meaning there's a conspicuously wide, flat dashboard, a centrally-mounted analogue rev counter and a centre console that ascends towards the front of the cabin.
Porsche Advanced Cockpit takes centre stage. The glass-look Direct Touch Control buttons work seamlessly with the 12-inch high resolution central touchscreen. There are also two more screens either side of the rev counter, giving you direct control over the most important vehicle functions.
Driver assistance features include:
- Porsche InnoDrive including Adaptive cruise control
- Lane Keeping Assist with road sign recognition
- Lane Change Assist
- ParkAssist with Surround View
- Night Vision Assist
