brake light PORSCHE PANAMERA 2013 1.G Information Manual

1011
When we st yle a sports car, we could
focus on the here and now and follow the
latest fashion. That would be fine until
the next season arrives. But, how exactly
do you create something that not only
appeals today but also captivates
tomorrow? We believe it ’s achieved by
focusing on principles, by preserving
the tried and tested and using this as
the plat form for new ideas.

With the new Panamera models, the
proportions and use of form are t ypical
of any Porsche. The wings are higher
than the bonnet and they add muscle
at the rear. The roof line tapers down to
the rear. Another typical Porsche characteristic

is the evolution of the design. It ’s more
p re c i s e . S h a r p e r. E d g i e r.

Visible examples include, for example,
the rest yled and once again enlarged air
intakes in the front end. These help to
provide optimum cooling of the engine
and brakes. The fact that they also look
great is a welcome bonus.

The rear end has been rest yled; its lines
sharpened. The rear screen is larger
and flat ter. It is also wider, just like the
automatically deploying spoiler. The LED
taillights have become narrower and
more crisply defined. Seen from the rear, the new Panamera models look more
modern and boast tauter proportions.


Another illuminating example of the
further development of the Panamera
design is the Bi-Xenon headlights fit ted
as standard. The day time running lights
have been integrated into the main
headlight units in the form of four LED
spotlights. Like the taillights, they now
appear slimmer. Together with the more
distinctive powerdome of the bonnet,
the new sideskirts and exterior mirrors,
they lend the Panamera models a more
sporty look. Traditional values and a forward-looking
design make a successful combination.
All that ’s missing is your own inter
pre-
tation of the Panamera. With 15 exterior
colours, an extensive range of leather
packages, wheels measuring up to
20 inches and many more options, you
can lend your model an unmistakeable
character.
One of our most important design tools:
timelessness.

Everyday driving requires practical cars
with space and comfort. But doesn’t your
heart crave a sports car? We don’t see a
contradiction.

Both models are driven by a newly
developed 3.0 -litre V6 engine with
twin-turbochargers. Engine power is
transmitted by Porsche Doppelkupplung
(PDK, p. 58). In the new Panamera 4S,
it is distributed to all four wheels via
the all-wheel drive of Porsche Traction
Management (PTM, p. 61). Bi-Xenon headlights, including daytime
running lights with four integral LED
spotlights, are fit ted as standard on all
models. The same applies to
Porsche
Active Suspension Management (PASM,
p. 65) – an electronic damping control
system – and the Tyre Pressure Monitoring
( T PM, p. 6 4).

From the outside, the new Panamera S
models are recognisable by the silver-
coloured brake calipers, 18-inch
Panamera S wheels and the round t win
tailpipes of the exhaust system.
Of course, you could find other ways to get to the office.
But why should you?

The new Panamera S and the new Panamera 4S.
In the interior, the rev counter dial face in
Silver Grey is another hallmark. Automatic
climate control and heated front seats are
fit ted as standard to provide excellent
comfort. The partial leather interior is also
standard. The seat squab surfaces, inner
backrest sur faces and the inner side
bolsters are all upholstered in embossed
leather.

VarioCam Plus.
VarioCam Plus is a two-in-one engine
concept for adjusting the intake and
exhaust camshafts and switching the
lift of the intake valves. The system
differentiates between driver inputs that
typify normal, everyday driving and those
inputs that demand maximum power.
Valve operation is then adapted
automatically to prevailing conditions.
This results in instant acceleration and
extremely smooth running as well as
extraordinary acceleration power with
comparatively low fuel consumption.
Standard in the Panamera models with
petrol engine (except the Panamera S
E-Hybrid).

Variable camshaft control.
In the V6 combustion engine of the
new Panamera S E-Hybrid, fully variable
camshaft control is used to adjust the
intake camshaft timing. The result is
high specific output and high torque –
even at low engine speeds.

Auto/start stop function.
The auto start /stop function still works
in the familiar way. As soon as you come
to a halt and keep your foot on the brake
pedal, the system will automatically
stop the engine. This fuel-saving system
restarts the engine the moment you
release the brakes.

What’s new, however, is that the engine
now switches off as you approach traffic
lights. All audio and communication
systems remain switched on and the
climate control continues to maintain
your selected temperature, despite the
engine being switched off. The engine
restarts automatically if the energy
needs of the auxiliary equipment can
no longer be met by the energy saved
in the bat tery. In all models (except
the Panamera S E-Hybrid), the auto
start /stop function can be activated and
deactivated using a separate but ton.
Coasting.
The coasting function available with
Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK) enables
you to save even more fuel where the
situation allows.* The engine is decoupled
from the transmission to prevent
deceleration caused by engine braking.
The Panamera S E-Hybrid goes one step
further and switches off the engine
completely. In this way, optimum use
is made of the vehicle’s momentum,
allowing it to coast for longer distances.
This achieves a noticeable reduction
in fuel consumption with no impact on
comfort or sporty performance.

71Balance
At Porsche, intelligent engineering is
also key to providing balance, especially
behind the steering wheel. On long
straights or in tight corners, with lighting
systems, for example, that enable the
driver to breathe easy regardless of the
road ahead. With brake systems that
contribute to the driver’s inner calm and
assistance systems that of fer support
rather than take over, as you will discover
from page 100 onwards.
Calm and pulse. Balance.

Lighting concept.
Standard in all new Panamera models:
Bi-Xenon headlights featuring automatic
and dynamic range adjustment, a
headlight cleaning system and integral
day time running lights with four LED
spotlights in each headlight. On the
new Panamera GTS, the headlight units
are finished in black.

The Porsche Dynamic Light System
(PDLS) is standard in the Panamera Turbo
and Panamera GTS, and available on
request for all other models. Its dynamic cornering light function
swivels the headlights towards the inside
of the bend, based on the steering angle
and driving speed. The static cornering
lights activate the auxiliary headlights

in order to illuminate more of the road
at tight bends and turns. In addition,
beam distribution is continuously adapted
in line with driving speed and prevailing
light conditions. Another function is
the adverse weather function. This is
activated whenever the rear fog light
is switched on and improves safet y
by reducing the dazzle to which you
are exposed and by providing bet ter
illumination of the kerbside.
Automatic headlight activation is standard
in all models and switches the lights on
automatically when it gets dark. The
lighting system also includes an auto matic
switch- off feature and the ‘Welcome
Home’ function – a customi sable delayed
switch- off timer that keeps the day time
running lights and the taillights switched
on until you reach your front door.


Adaptive LED brake lights are fit ted as
standard and pulsate in the event of panic
braking, thereby alerting following traffic
more quickly to a critical situation.
Sometimes, looking ahead also means thinking about
what’s around the next corner.

Sometimes even short distances mean major progress.
Brakes.
The Panamera models have a braking
system equipped with six-piston aluminium
monobloc fixed brake calipers at the
front and four-piston units at the rear. The
brake calipers on the Panamera and
Panamera 4 are finished in black; on the
Panamera S models, they are silver-
coloured; on the Panamera S E-Hybrid
they are Acid Green, and on the Panamera
GTS and Panamera Turbo they are red.

The brake discs are slot ted and internally
vented for enhanced braking performance
– even under extreme conditions – and
rapid heat dispersal. The brake discs on
the Panamera Turbo and Panamera GTS
have a diameter of 390 mm at the front and 350 mm at the rear, whilst on the
other Panamera models the discs are
360 mm in diameter at the front and
330 mm at the rear.


The electric parking brake, which you can
activate and deactivate manually, releases
automatically as you pull away. Thanks
to the hold function, you can pull away
without ever rolling back.
Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake
(PCCB).
On request, your Panamera can be fit ted
with a braking system that has proven
itself on the race track: the Porsche
Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB). The
cross-drilled ceramic brake discs on the
Panamera Turbo and Panamera GTS have
a diameter of 410 mm at the front and
350 mm at the rear; the other models
feature discs with a diameter of 390 and
350 mm at the front and rear, respectively.


PCCB is characterised by its low thermal
expansion under heavy braking, which
helps to prevent deformation. Furthermore,
the ceramic brake discs are totally
resistant to corrosion and of fer bet ter
noise-damping properties.


The key advantage of PCCB is the
extremely low weight of the brake discs,
which are approximately 50 % lighter
than standard discs of similar design and
size. Although enhanced performance and fuel economy are very noticeable
benefits: above all, it represents a major
reduction in unsprung and rotating
masses. That means better handling,
bet ter road holding and increased
comfort, particularly on uneven roads.

Optional for the Panamera Turbo and
Panamera GTS in conjunction with 20-inch
wheels; for other Panamera models, only
compatible with 19-inch wheels or larger.
