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.

Performance | Transmission
Power flow in 1st gear
Power flow in 2nd gear
The flow of power from the
engine is transmit ted through one
half gearbox and one clutch at a
time, while the next gear is pre -
selected in the other half gearbox.
During a gear change, therefore,
a complete shif t no longer takes
place. Instead, one clutch simply
opens and the other closes at the
same time. Gear changes can
therefore take place within a few
hundredths of a second.
Clutch 1 controls the first half
gearbox, which contains the odd
gears (1, 3, 5 and 7). Clutch 2
controls the second, which con -
tains the even gears (2, 4, 6 and
R). The gear which is engaged
is displayed on the instrument
cluster.
PDK has distinct benefits. A high
level of driving comfort and
very rapid gearshifts, with no
interruption in the flow of power,
produces faster acceleration.
Driving feels even sportier and
more dynamic, and agilit y is
increased. Depending on the gear -
shif t programme (SPORT but ton
activated or deactivated), the gear
change is optimised for comfort
or for sport y driving. Its high level
of ef ficiency combined with the
long-ratio 7th gear helps to
achieve reduced fuel consumption
and emission figures even when
compared with a standard manual
gearbox.
In conjunction with either the
optional Sport Chrono Package
Plus (p. 74) for all Panamera
models with a naturally aspirated
engine or the optional Sport
Chrono Package Turbo for the
Panamera Turbo (p. 76), PDK is
enhanced by a Launch Control
function which offers a sportier
acceleration and gearshift
strategy in automatic mode and
extremely smooth gear changes
in manual mode.
PDK offers sportiness with
efficiency and comfort. A new
definition of driving in the
pre
mium class from Porsche.

Instruments.
The five circular dashboard instru-
ments in the Panamera models
are quick, clear and easy to read.
Typically Porsche.
The instrument cluster with high-
resolution 4.8-inch TFT colour
screen gives you access to the
on-board computer or the naviga -
tion system map, for example.
It also shows the set tings of the
optional adaptive cruise control
or gives various warnings, such
as alerts from the Tyre Pressure
Monitoring (TPM).
In the new Panamera and
Panamera 4 models, the dial face
of the rev counter is black; in
the Panamera S and Panamera 4S
it is silver-grey, and in the
Panamera Turbo it is black and
bears the ‘turbo’ logo.
Front seats.
The front seats with integrated
headrests of fer a high degree of
comfort. During cornering, they
hold your body firm but without
restricting your freedom of move -
ment.
Seat adjustment is fully electric as
standard with controls on both the
driver and front passenger sides
for seat height, squab and back -
rest angle, and fore/af t position. A
driver memory package, available
as an option, enables the driver’s
seat and exterior mirror positions
to be saved and restored auto -
ma t ic a l l y.
In the Panamera Turbo, the front
seats offer even more function -
alit y. The 14-way power seats with
memory package for both driver
and front passenger are standard
(optional for all other Panamera
models). In addition to featuring an
electric steering column adjust -
ment facilit y, this includes electric
four-way lumbar support, electric
seat squab length adjustment and
personal memory for seat, steer -
ing wheel and mirror positions.
The courtesy lights (LEDs in the
exterior mirrors) are a component
of the driver memory package and
14-way power seats with memory
package.
ISOFIX child seat mounting points
are available as an option for the
front passenger seat in conjunc -
tion with the deactivation function
for the passenger airbag.
Adaptive sports seats.
Do you wish to take sport y driving
to an even higher level? That is
precisely what the adaptive sports
seats were designed for. Available
as an option for all Panamera
models, they have firmer uphol-
ster y
and provide even bet ter
lateral support thanks to the
raised side bolsters on the seat
squab and backrest. Featuring 18-way electric adjust
-
ment, the seats can be optimally
adapted to meet your needs in
terms of seat height, squab and
backrest angle, squab length, fore/
af t adjustment and 4-way lumbar
support. The steering column is
also electrically adjustable.
In addition, the side bolsters on
the seat squab and backrest are
independently adjustable for added comfort with longitudinal
or precision lateral support on
winding roads. Also included is
the personal memory for the
driver and front passenger seats
(including lumbar support), the
steering wheel and the driver’s
exterior mirror.
