The dream of a sports car, but without
compromise in terms of everyday driving.
These claims couldn’t really be further
apart, yet the new Panamera models
incorporate them seamlessly. With a
sport y saloon offering four seats and
extraordinary comfort. Amalgamating
the power of contradictions to create
something utterly distinctive: a Porsche
– for every day of the year.
Day and dream. Concept.

Interior
The new Panamera models feature an
exquisite, clearly structured interior
offering a high degree of comfort.
Designed for driving pleasure and
long journeys, for four occupants and
their luggage. The concept may be
unorthodox for a saloon, but it’s typical
of a Panamera.

Of course, the same applies to the four
individual seats. Just as it does to the
sport y and highly ergonomic cockpit.
Five circular instruments with a high-
resolution colour display and the logical
grouping of controls enable fast and
direct access.
In the rear, even taller passengers will
find plent y of head- and legroom. The
rear seats fold down separately to

create space for larger items of luggage,
including your sports equipment.

You choose the colours and materials
yourself. An extensive selection of interior
colours, interior packages with various
woods, aluminium or carbon, and many
other personalisation options means that
your decision certainly won’t be an easy
one. But the result will be all the more
individual. For more information, please
refer to page 110 onwards.
To get on in life,
sometimes all you need to do is sit back and relax.

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.

The new Panamera models reconcile
contradictions. They are vitalised by the
conflict bet ween comfort and dynamics
and bet ween sport y performance and
ef ficiency. Can three let ters intensif y
this conflict? The answer is seen on
race tracks and on roads. That ’s where
Porsche has writ ten the abbreviation
GTS into history – and is how the
new Panamera GTS has become the
thoroughbred athlete of the family.


The figures sum it up: 324 kW (440 hp)
power output and a maximum torque of
520 Nm. The 4.8-litre naturally aspirated V8 engine with ram air induction is
extremely responsive. 7-speed Porsche
Doppelkupplung (PDK) and the active

all-wheel drive of Porsche Traction
Management (PTM) transmit the engine
power of the new Panamera GTS adeptly
to the tarmac. The sports exhaust
system and the adaptive air suspension
with ‘normal level’ lowered by 10 mm
are fit ted as standard. The brake system,
wheels, front end and four-way rear
spoiler have been carried over from
the Panamera Turbo. The sideskirts are
st yled in mat t black. This is driving pleasure the GTS way –
accompanied by a thunderous
soundtrack.


The sport y characteristics of the new
Panamera GTS continue seamlessly into
the interior in the form of leather and
Alcantara and the ‘GTS’ logo in the rev
counter, on the headrests and on the
door sill guards in brushed aluminium.
Alcantara is the material used for the
seat centres of the adaptive Sports
seats, the armrests of the centre console
and the rooflining. The SportDesign steering wheel is fit ted as standard.

On request, it is possible to have the
rim finished in black Alcantara.

Two optional trim packages are available
in conjunction with the black Alcantara.
They further emphasise the sport y
at titude of the interior. The seat belts
and the stitching on the dashboard, door
waist rails, seats, and the armrests on
the centre console and doors are in
Carmine Red or GT Silver. The headrests
of all four seats are embroidered with
the ‘GTS’ logo in the same colour.
How about some extra zing?

Supreme performance can take the
breath away. Or it can force us to
keep calm and breathe deeply. It ’s like
sit ting behind the wheel of the new
Panamera Turbo.

Here, comfort and sportiness intertwine
without compromise. Its 4.8-litre t win-
turbo V8 engine delivers 382 kW (520 hp)
and offers a maximum torque of 700 Nm
bet ween 2,250 and 4,500 rpm. The
new 19-inch Panamera Turbo II wheels
afford a glimpse of the brake system
and its red brake calipers.
520 hp unleashes a mighty force.
The kind to put a smile on your face.

The new Panamera Turbo.
The twin dual-tube tailpipes are in the
unmistakable Turbo design. Just like
the chrome- coloured air outlets behind
the front wheels.
The front end features large air intakes to
increase the volume of cooling air, while
the four-way rear spoiler helps to reduce
lift at the rear axle.

Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK, p. 58) is
fit ted as standard, as is Porsche Traction
Management (PTM, p. 61) with active
all-wheel drive and an electronic and map - controlled multi - plate clutch.
Displays in the instrument cluster and
Porsche Communication Management
(PCM, p. 92) inform you of the
longitudinal and lateral acceleration
forces currently acting on the vehicle.
Integrated as standard, the adaptive air
suspension including Porsche Active
Suspension Management (PASM, p.
65)
enhances sport y per formance –
or comfort. At the push of a but ton.

In the interior, the Turbo presents its own
interpretation of the sport y st yle that characterises any Porsche. It achieves
this with electric eight-way power seats
(front) with memory package (p. 88),

and seat heating (p. 91) for the driver,
front passenger and also in the rear; and
with an interior in smooth-finish leather
and the walnut interior package. Porsche

Porsche Active Suspension
Management (PASM).
PASM is an electronic damping control
system and it actively and continuously
adjusts the damping force on each
wheel, based on road conditions and
driving st yle. This reduces body
movement and therefore increases
comfort in all four seats.

How does PASM work? By means of a
but ton on the centre console, you can
select one of the three modes: Comfort,
SPORT or SPORT PLUS. Sensors record
the body movements that accompany powerful acceleration, braking and

rapid cornering or uneven road surfaces.
The control unit evaluates the driving
conditions and modifies the damping
force on each of the wheels in
accordance with the selected mode. You
can feel the result: increased driving
stability, more comfort and improved
performance.
Optional for the Panamera and
Panamera 4, standard in all other models.

Keep your relationship intimate.
Adaptive air suspension.
Adaptive air suspension enhances both
driving dynamics and comfort at the
same time. It comprises a levelling
system, a manual lift function, ride-height
adjustment capability and the ability to
vary the spring rate.

The purpose of the levelling system is
to keep the vehicle level constant auto -
matically, regardless of load distribution.
For manoeuvring, the manual lift function
enables you to raise the vehicle body
by 20 mm to avoid the risk of grounding. When you select the SPORT PLUS
chassis programme, the ride height
drops to Low Level (–
25 mm, or – 15 mm
in the Panamera GTS). At the same time,
a harder spring rate is achieved through
a reduction in the amount of air stored in
the air suspension. In simple terms, it’s
a sports chassis at the push of a but ton.
Standard for the Panamera S E-Hybrid,
Panamera GTS and Panamera Turbo,
optional for the other models.
Wheels and Tyre Pressure Monitoring
(TPM).
The Panamera and Panamera 4 are
fit ted as standard with 18-inch Panamera
wheels, the Panamera S, 4S and
Panamera S E-Hybrid with 18-inch
Panamera S wheels. The wheels on all
models are light weight alloys featuring
a classic sport y design. Tyre sizes
245/50 ZR 18 and 275/45 ZR 18 are
fit ted to the front and rear, respectively.
The Panamera GTS and Panamera Turbo
are equipped with 19-inch Panamera
Turbo II wheels as standard. The t yre
sizes are 255/45 ZR 19 at the front, 285/40 ZR 19 at the rear. A range of
optional 19- and 20 -inch wheels is

also available (p. 128/129). In addition,
all-season tyres are optionally available
for all 19- and 20 -inch wheels.

Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM) sends
warnings to the on-board computer’s
display screen in the event of excessive
pressure loss.

TPM is standard in the Panamera models
(optional for Panamera and Panamera 4).19 - inch Panamera Turbo ll wheel

Engineered body design.
The lightweight bodyshell construction,
made from super- high -strength steels,
stainless steel, magnesium and aluminium,
ensures a low overall weight. It also
produces a highly resilient passenger
cell that offers high levels of protection
in the event of an impact. The system of
longitudinal and transverse
members at
the front absorbs deformation
energ y and
disperses the forces, thereby minimising
deformation of the interior. In addition,
passive safet y is further enhanced by the
front axle aluminium subframe, which is
designed to deform in a defined manner.
A rigid bulkhead cross member reduces
deformation of the foot well in the event of an impact and provides improved
protection for the feet and legs. In a
minor collision, a system of easily
replaceable impact absorbers prevents
costly damage to the underlying
bodyshell.


Active bonnet system.
The active bonnet system is designed
with enhanced pedestrian safet y in mind.
The moment the sensors in the front
apron detect a collision, this pyrotech -
nically assisted system raises the rear
portion of the bonnet, which can help
to reduce the risk of injury.
Airbags and seat belt system.
All Panamera models are fit ted as
standard with full-size driver and front
passenger airbags. Depending on the
severit y and t ype of accident, they are
inflated in t wo stages. In less serious
accidents, the airbags are only partially
inflated, thereby minimising discomfort
to the occupants.

As well as knee airbags for driver and
front passenger, the Porsche Side Impact
Protection System (POSIP) is also fit ted
as standard. This comprises side airbags in the front
seats, curtain airbags along the entire
roof frame and the side windows from
the A-pillar to the C-pillar, and side
impact protection elements in the doors.
Side airbags in the rear compartment

are available as an option. Also featured
as standard are an energy absorbing
steering column, three - point seat belts
on all seats, belt height adjustment and
seat belt force limiters in the front, and
seat belt pretensioners front and rear.
A rollover sensor automatically activates
the curtain airbags and seat belt
pretensioners if the vehicle threatens

to overturn.

Your first impression of the Panamera
interior is the generous amount of comfort.
The second impression is one of sport y
lightness and excellent ergonomics. The
five round instruments have an integrated
4.8-inch colour screen. The centre console
ascends towards the front, shortening the
reach bet ween the steering wheel and the
gear selector. All the important controls
are arranged into logical groups to give
you quick access to important functions
without the need to browse through long
sub-menus.Smooth-finish leather, natural leather,
two-tone colour combinations, elegant
woods, aluminium and carbon – thanks
to these and many more personalisation
options, you can make your Panamera
even more sport y or even more
comfortable. Or both. In the Panamera
Turbo and Panamera GTS, the rooflining

is upholstered in Alcantara as standard
(optional for all other models). For
more detailed information about colours
and personalisation, please refer to
page 110 onwards.


There’s still nothing quite like being surrounded by your own four walls.
Even when you’re on the move.
Interior.
The Panamera models offer a variet y of
storage options, for example in the doors
and centre console. There is a cupholder
in the front centre armrest and t wo
cupholders in the rear compartment. On
request at no extra charge, it is possible
to have a further t wo fold- out cupholders
fitted above the glove compartment.

For extra storage space, a large centre
console is available as an option for
the rear compartment. It comes with a
230 -volt socket, an additional 12-volt
socket and preparation for a cooling compartment. The interior lighting
concept with switch- off delay is practical
and appealing. This includes illuminated
door handles and storage compartments
in the front, orientation lights, front
foot well lights and also reading lights
and interior lights – one of each for all
four seats.
