Concept | The Panamera model range
The rear lid with large glass screen
opens to a wide angle. This
makes
loading easier and im
proves
access to luggage when the vehi -
cle is laden. An automatic rear
lid with customisable opening
angle is available as an option
(p. 131).
The most striking aspect of the
rear is undoubtedly the spoiler
which is integrated into the
rear lid. From a speed of around
55 mph (90 km/ h), it deploys
automatically, as you may already
have suspected. However, on the
Panamera Turbo, it doesn’t stop
there. The spoiler splits in the
middle and extensions deploy to
the left and right, making it con -
siderably wider to further reduce
lift at the rear axle. And from
127 mph (205 km/ h), the spoiler
on all models adjusts to increase
its steepness to produce even
more traction and, as a result,
increased driving stabilit y at high
speeds. The appearance of any Panamera
model can be customised to your
individual taste. The colour palet te
offers no fewer than 17 exterior
colours. In total, there are t wo
solid, ten metallic and five special
colours to choose from. On re
-
quest, you can opt to have your
Panamera model finished in practi -
cally any colour of your choice.
In addition, a wide range of per -
sonalisation options is available.
For more information, please refer
to page 132 onwards.
So you see, whichever way you
look at it, it looks like a Porsche.
And, most importantly, it feels like
one too. Whatever kind of journey you
are making – short or long, for
business or pleasure, or even just
routine driving – the Panamera
offers something a lit tle bit dif
-
ferent.
When you sit inside one of the
Panamera models, four things
immediately stand out: first, the
elevated centre console; second,
the four individual seats; third,
the amount of space in the rear where even taller passengers will
find plent y of leg and head room;
and fourth, the versatilit y of the
luggage compartment thanks to
the folding rear seats.
The ignition lock is, of course,
located on the left-hand side

of the steering wheel, as in all

Porsche vehicles. The instrument
cluster incorporating the central
rev counter is clear and quick
to read.
The four individual seats (p. 104)
are comfortable and of fer good
lateral support. In conjunction
with seat heating, a seat ventila -
tion function is also available as
an option. The electrically adjust -
able 8-way power seats in the
rear (p. 106) are another special
feature available on request.
Why four individual seats?
Because only these satisf y our
requirement for high-perform -
ance driving and a high level of
seating comfort. Conventional
rear bench seats can not fulfil
this requirement and instead
made way for a centre console.
We’ve been playing with the concept of a saloon.
It lost 4:0.
Interior design.

· 36 ·· 37 ·
You could choose to drive a sport y
saloon. Or a sport y MPV. Alterna -
tively, you could choose to drive a
four-seater Porsche. Just like the
Panamera S or Panamera 4S, with
per formance figures to match
many a sport y t wo -seater.
The S models are recognisable by
the silver- coloured brake calipers
behind the 18-inch Panamera S
wheels and by their round t win

tailpipes. The side windows have
a chrome- coloured border. In the
interior, the silver- coloured rev
counter dial is visually striking.
On the Panamera S, the double
slats on the side air intakes are
black. On the Panamera 4S, they
are titanium-coloured.
Both models have a 4.8-litre
naturally aspirated V8 engine that
produces 294 kW (400 hp)

and 500 Nm of torque. On the
Panamera S, power is transmit ted
to the rear wheels by the standard
6 -speed manual gearbox. The
7-speed Porsche Doppelkupplung
(PDK) is available as an option. On
the Panamera 4S, PDK is standard
and transmits drive force to the
all-wheel drive of Porsche Trac-
tion Management (PTM, p. 60) –
also fit ted as standard. The Panamera S accelerates from
0 to 62 mph (100 km/ h) in just
5.6 seconds, with a top speed of
177 mph (285 km/ h). With the
optional PDK, figures of 5.4
sec
-
onds and 176 mph (283 km/ h)
are
achieved. The Panamera 4S
completes the sprint in only
5.0 seconds and has a top speed
of 175 mph (282 km/ h).
Steel spring suspension with
Porsche Active Suspension Man -
agement
(PASM, p. 66) is fit ted as
standard in both models. Adaptive
air suspension, 20 -inch wheels
and a sports exhaust system are
just three of many options you can
select to personalise your vehicle.
Safet y features include Bi-Xenon
headlights with dynamic range
adjustment (p. 80), which provide
more effective illumination of
the road and are fit ted as stand -
ard on both models. Also standard
is Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM,
p. 65) and the automatically
dimming mirrors.
A high level of interior comfort is
assured by the automatic climate control system and the heated
seats fit ted as standard in the
front, with seat heating optional
for the rear. Seat ventilation is
available on request. The partial
leather interior has the same
specification as for the Panamera/
Panamera 4.
Porsche Communication Mana -
gement (PCM) with navi gation
module is standard on both the Panamera S and Panamera 4S.
The BOSE
® Surround Sound

System (p. 114) or Burmester
®
High-End Surround Sound System
(p. 116) are both optional.
These options are only the
be ginning when it comes to

customising the Panamera S or
4S. Give your four-seater Porsche
your ver y own personal touch.

Four doors. Four seats. Eight
cylinders. Up to this point, others
may even have been able to
keep up. But then comes a point
of dif ference in the form of the
Panamera Turbo. It not only joins
a long line of Porsche Turbo
models, it leads the way with its
extensive standard equipment

combined with a host of features
that are exclusive to a Turbo.
What about the aesthetics?

and red brake calipers, naturally.
Twin dual-tube tailpipes in the
unmistakable Turbo design. Four
LED day time running lights in each headlight unit with separate
direction indicators. The front
apron features horizontal slats
and longitudinal struts in the air
intakes. The air outlets in the wing
behind the front wheels also

have slats. Five, to be exact,
and all in a chrome finish. The auto - deploying t wo -piece rear
spoiler is t ypically characteristic.
The Panamera Turbo is powered
by a 4.8-litre V8 t win -turbo engine
that generates an output of

368 kW (500 hp) and 700 Nm.
The seven-speed Porsche Doppel -
kupplung (PDK, p. 55) is fit ted
as standard, as is Porsche Traction
Management (PTM, p. 60) with
active all-wheel drive and an elec -
tronic and map-controlled multi -
plate clutch.
Performance is exemplary. The
Panamera Turbo races from 0 to
62 mph (100 km/ h) in just 4.2 sec-
onds and has a top speed of
188 mph (303 km/ h).
Also fit ted as standard in the
Panamera Turbo is adaptive air
suspension including Porsche
Active Suspension Management
(PASM) with three damping, sus -
pension and ride-height set tings
ranging from comfort to extra
sport y (p. 66 – 69). Increased
performance or greater comfort?
The choice is yours. Simply press
the but ton.
And what about the interior?
Typically Porsche with all the
usual Turbo features. A perfect
combination of sportiness and
comfort. As standard equipment,
the interior features electrically
adjustable
14-way power seats
with memory package in the front
(p. 104), with seat heating front
and rear.
Also standard are the
smooth-finish leather and walnut
interior packages. Alternatively,
the
anthracite birch, tineo or
brushed aluminium interior
packages are available at no
extra cost.
Moreover, the Porsche Commu -
nication Management (PCM)
with
navigation module – standard
on
all models – has been combined
with the BOSE
® Surround Sound
System (p. 114).
The Burmester®
High-End

SPORT button.
All Panamera models are
equipped with the SPORT but ton
as standard. This feature enables
the driver to vary the engine
characteristics and, in vehicles
with PASM, the suspension setup.
In vehicles with Porsche Doppel-
kupplung (PDK), the SPORT
but ton can be used to select a
sportier gearshif t strategy. For
more information, please refer
to page 74.
Auto start/stop function (only
in conjunction with Porsche
Doppelkupplung, PDK).
Silence: the t ypical stationary
noise. If, for example, you stop at
traf fic lights with your foot on
the brake pedal, the Auto start /
stop function will automatically
stop the engine. This fuel -saving
system restarts the engine as
soon as you release the brakes.
A key advantage is that there is
no need for you to change your
driving habits. You can simply
carry on as normal. All audio and
communication systems remain
switched on and the climate
control continues to maintain your
selected temperature, despite the
engine being switched of f. The
engine restarts if more power or
extra cooling output is required.
The Auto start /stop function
can be activated and deactivated
using a separate but ton. The
function may remain inactive under
particular circumstances, e.g.
very high outside temperatures,
on extreme uphill gradients, or if
bat tery charge is low.
The starter has been modified to
meet the increased requirements
demanded by this function and the bat tery is continuously moni
-
tored for the level of charge and
condition. The bat tery and starter
are consumable components and
are subject to an increased rate
of wear in the event of frequent
engine stopping.
Fuel economy is further improved
by electrical system recuperation,
whereby the bat tery is charged
predominantly under braking.
Under acceleration, on the other
hand, the alternator’s charging
current is reduced so that the
engine does not need to work as
hard to charge the bat tery.
Performance | Engines
With millisecond precision, DFI
injects fuel at up to 120 bar di rect -
l y
into the combustion chamber
by means of electromagnetically
actuated injection valves.
The spray and cone angles have
been optimised for torque, power
output, fuel consumption and
emissions by enabling a homoge -
neous distribution of the air/fuel
mixture, and, therefore, ef fective combustion. At up to 3,500 rpm,
the engine operates with dual
injection for faster heating of the
cataly tic converters af ter a cold
start and for greater torque in the
upper load range.
DFI improves the internal cooling
of the combustion chamber by
having the mixture prepared
direct
ly in the cylinder. This allows
for a higher compression ratio, which helps to deliver more out
-
put at the same time as enhanced
engine ef ficiency. Injection is
regulated by the electronic engine
management system and emis-
sions are monitored by the stereo
Lambda sensors, thus helping to
protect the environment.
A sense of relaxation is felt especially
after a period of intense pressure.

Three-spoke sports steering
wheel with gearshift switches
and multifunction option.
In conjunction with the optional
PDK, the three-spoke sports
steering wheel fit ted as standard
has t wo ergonomic switches
for changing gear.
One press
forwards with the thumb
and PDK
shifts up. One pull backwards with
the index finger and PDK shif ts
down. Either the right or lef t hand
can be used. Even if the gear selector is set to
automatic, you can still use the
switches to change gear manually
at any time. In this way, even in
automatic mode, you can achieve
a short burst of speed for an over
-
taking manoeuvre. The system
reverts to automatic mode if no
manual inputs are detected for
approximately eight seconds.
Using the PDK gear selector, you
can also change gear manually in
a separate one-touch manual shif t
gate. The control concept mirrors
the logic of the switches on the PDK steering wheel – press
forwards to shift up, pull back
-
wards to shift down.
A multifunction version of the
three-spoke sports steering wheel
is available on request. Steering
wheel heating is also optional.
When combined with the Sport
Chrono Package, there is an addi -
tional display* above the airbag
module. It tells you whether the
SPORT, SPORT PLUS and Launch
Control functions are activated.

Three-spoke sports steering
wheel with gearshift paddles.*
Available as an option is the three-
spoke sports steering wheel with
gearshif t paddles. The paddles
are made from a strong alloy and
are ergonomically located behind
the right and lef t steering wheel
spokes. Pull the right-hand paddle
and the PDK shif ts up. Pull the
left-hand paddle and the PDK
shif ts down.
Visually, the steering wheel is
distinguished by its distinctive
high - qualit y t win -spoke design and
silver-coloured spoke cover.
This steering wheel also has an
additional display when combined
with the Sport Chrono Package.
Located in the lef t and right-hand
steering wheel spokes, it tells you
whether SPORT, SPORT PLUS and
Launch Control are activated. Another feature reminiscent of the
world of motorsport is the top
centre marking on the steering
wheel rim.

In models with the V8 engine,
exhaust gas cleaning is supported
by an air injection system. A com-
pressor pumps extra air into the
exhaust tract during the cataly tic
converter warm-up phase for
faster heating and, therefore,
lower emissions.
Other measures for improving fuel
economy are the Auto start/stop
function (p. 50) and electrical
system recuperation, whereby the
vehicle bat tery is charged pre-
dominantly under braking. Under
acceleration, on the other hand,
the charging current of the regu -
lated alternator is reduced so that
the engine does not need to work
as hard to charge the bat tery.
Lightweight construction and
recycling.
A fundamental objective in the
development of any Porsche is
intelligent lightweight construction.
For both economical and ecologi -
cal reasons. This forms the basis
for low fuel consumption values in conjunction with outstanding
performance. It is economical
thanks to the high proportion of
aluminium cast alloys, plastics
and super-high-strength sheet
steel used. This is substantially
more stable and lighter than

conventional steel. The Panamera
models have a bodyshell with a
light weight-metal content of 23 %.
For example, the bonnet, doors,
front wings and rear lid are made
of aluminium, which saves on
weight and has a positive ef fect
on the environmental balance:
according to eco balance sheets,
the extra energy used and the
higher emissions incurred in the
manufacturing of aluminium
are more than compensated by
the savings on fuel af ter only a
relatively short distance.
It is also responsible because all
materials used are meticulously
selected. We use only innovative
and environmentally friendly com -
ponents. All light weight materials
are easily recyclable and each
material is labelled to facilitate its
separation for recycling. The reduction in the number of plastic
variants helps to ensure more
efficient recycling. Recycled plas
-
tics are used where they meet our
exacting technical requirements
In all, the Panamera is approxi -
mately 95 % recyclable.
In addition, Porsche uses only
environmentally friendly water-
based paints, thus reducing
the need for solvents both in pro -
duction and in the workshop.
The Panamera is also absolutely
free of asbestos, CFCs and
components manufactured using
CFCs because, here at Porsche,
environmental protection does
not begin at the end of a vehicle’s
life. It starts at the planning and
development stage.

The interior.
In terms of Porsche design, the
Panamera models are, admit tedly,
a lit tle dif ferent from what we
are used to. It ’s no wonder, as
they are the first Porsche vehicles
to have four individual seats
(p. 106). But that ’s not all.
What strikes you immediately
about the front is the elevated
centre console. It doesn’t look like
a saloon does it? That ’s good,
because it does look distinctly like
a sportscar. Even more impor -
tantly, it handles like one. This is
thanks in no small part to the
extremely short distance bet ween
the gear lever and steering wheel
– to be more precise, the three-
spoke sports steering wheel with
smooth -finish leather rim, which
is fit ted as standard and adjusts
for height and reach. A heated
steering wheel is available on
request.
Also available as an option for all
models is the three-spoke multi-
function steering wheel, which has
but tons for the convenient opera -
tion of a range of radio and, where
applicable, navigation and tele -
phone functions. It is finished
in smooth -finish leather or, in
conjunction with steering wheel
heating, any finish of your choice
from walnut, tineo, anthracite
birch, Yachting Mahogany or
carbon.
With these finishes and a selec -
tion of other materials of fered
in the form of predefined interior
packages, there is a wealth of
ways for you to personalise the
interior. Additionally, there are
seven interior colours and five
t wo -tone combinations in several leathers. So you can create a
sport y or luxurious feel, or even a
blend of both.
All the frequently used controls on
the centre console are grouped
logically together to enable you to
select individual functions quickly
and easily.
Just how much at tention we have
paid to providing space in the
passenger compartment can be
seen in the details. The Panamera
models of fer a variet y of storage
options, e.g. in the doors and
centre console. The front centre
armrest contains a convenient
cupholder. Alternatively, at no
extra cost, you can have t wo addi
-
tional fold- out cupholders installed
above the glove compartment
to supplement the t wo fit ted as
standard in the rear compartment.

Rear seats.
Two fully independent seats with
plent y of leg and head room, even
for taller passengers. They provide
good lateral support, even during
fast cornering, with no compro -
mise on comfort. Bet ween the
seats is a folding armrest with a
handy storage compartment. The
backrests fold down individually
with a ratio of 40:60 to increase
storage capacit y or to accom -
modate unwieldy items. With the
optional large centre console,
the backrests can still be folded
separately while the console itself
remains fixed in position.
8-way power seats are available
as an option for the rear in any
of the Panamera models. In
addition to the electric backrest
adjustment, seat squab length
adjustment and lumbar support functions, there is a facilit y to
adjust the front passenger seat
from the rear.
When specified in conjunction with
seat ventilation (p. 150), the
8-way power seats (rear) feature
automatic comfort headrests.
In conjunction with the adaptive
sports seats in the front, sports
seats are also fit ted in the rear
and feature a contrasting seam
pat tern and elevated side bolsters.
ISOFIX child seat mounting points
are fit ted as standard on both rear
seats in all Panamera models.
Seat heating and ventilation.
The front seats of the Panamera S,
4S and Turbo models feature seat
heating as standard (optional for
Panamera and Panamera 4). This
heats the seat squab and backrest
to a pleasant temperature. In the
Panamera Turbo, the seats in the
rear also have a heating function
(optional for all other models).
On request, we can equip the
front seats, indeed all four seats,
with seat ventilation (only in
conjunction with seat heating).
A slipstream ef fect is produced
by active ventilation of the per -
forated seat centre and backrest
and by passive aeration at the
side bolsters. This evaporates
perspiration moisture and there -
fore makes for a comfortable
seating environment, even in
hot weather. Seat heating and
seat ventilation can be adjusted
independently to any one of
three power levels. Simultaneous
ventilation and heating is possible.
