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.

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.

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.

Park Assis t.
Park Assist is standard in all Panamera
models. With four sensors in the rear
end, the system audibly alerts the driver
to the presence of obstacles detected
behind the vehicle. An intermit tent
warning tone increases in rapidity as the
obstacle is approached. An enhanced
version of Park Assist, which includes
six sensors in the front end, is fit ted
as standard in the Panamera Turbo
and available as an option in the other
models. The audible alert is supplemented
by a visual warning in the central display
screen which provides a graphical
representation of the vehicle’s proximit y
to obstacles.
Reversing camera.
The optional reversing camera facilitates
precise reverse parking and manoeuvring
and also assists in hitching a trailer. Help
is provided in the form of the camera
image and the dynamic, superimposed
guidelines on the PCM screen, which
illustrate the predicted course of the
vehicle given the current position of the
steering wheel.
Surround View.
The optionally available Surround View
system supplements the reversing
camera with three more high-resolution
cameras – one in the front apron and one
in each lower trim of the exterior mirrors.
Based on the information supplied by
all four cameras, the system generates a virtual bird’s eye view of the car and
displays it on the PCM screen. This
provides additional assistance to the
driver when parking and manoeuvring
because even low-level obstacles to
the front and side of the vehicle can be
detected. It is also possible to switch
bet ween various camera views to
improve visibility, for example at narrow
exits.
Cruise control.
Cruise control is fit ted as standard for
added driver comfort on long stretches
of road. Cruise control operates in the
30 to 240 km/ h speed range and is
selected using a but ton on the steering
column control stalk.
Adaptive cruise control including
Porsche Active Safe (PAS).
Available as an option, this enhanced
version of cruise control regulates the
speed of your vehicle in line with the
speed of the vehicle in front. A radar
sensor inside in the front end scans the
road ahead up to a distance of 200 m.
Imagine you’ve selected a cruising speed
but have begun to gain on the vehicle in
front because it is driving more slowly –
the system reduces the speed of your
vehicle by restricting throt tle or gently
applying the brakes until your chosen
distance from the vehicle in front is
maintained. For safety reasons, the driver
should always be prepared to intervene
manually if heavier braking is required.
If the vehicle ahead slows further,
adaptive cruise control will decelerate
your Panamera accordingly – even down
to a halt. As soon as the road ahead
clears, your vehicle will accelerate back
up to the cruising speed originally set.
Selectable cruising speeds range from
30 to 210 km/ h. To pull away after an
automatic stop, simply press the control
lever or depress the accelerator pedal.
If desired, the driver can enable the
integrated stop -and -go function, which
automates stopping and pulling away in
congested traf fic. Safet y is further improved by Porsche
Active Safe (PAS). If you are approaching
the vehicle in front too quickly, you will
be prompted to take the necessary
action by an audible and visual warning
as well as a jolt of the brakes. The
system may also intervene with targeted
braking applications and act to boost
brake pressure as the situation demands,
even to the point of the maximum braking
force that the system is able to provide.
