Saloon or sports car? Power or efficiency? 
Quite simply, there’s no decision to make. 
That ’s because the new Panamera and the 
new Panamera 4 blend all these apparent 
contradictions into one sporty overall 
concept.  
 
Standard features of the new Panamera 
and the new Panamera  4 include Bi-Xenon 
headlights, 18-inch Panamera wheels, the 
t wo single-tube tailpipes of the exhaust 
system and the automatic rear hatch.   
 
Both models are also equipped as stan -
dard with the Porsche Doppelkupplung 
(PDK). In the new Panamera, it transfers  engine power to the rear axle; in the new 
Panamera 4, to all four wheels via the 
active all-wheel drive of Porsche Traction 
Management (PTM, p.
 61).  
 
The steel spring suspension is fit ted as 
standard and offers a high level of com -
fort coupled with a sport y setup. Porsche 
Active Suspension Management (PASM, 
p.  65), an electronic damping control 
system and the adaptive air suspension 
are available as an option.  
 
The interior boasts high- qualit y materials, 
and the partial leather package is available 
in a choice of three colours. The rim of  the multi
  function steering wheel (p.  62) 
fit ted as standard and the PDK gear 
selector are finished in smooth-finish 
leather, the interior trims in black (high-
gloss).   
 
Other standard features of the new 
Panamera and the new Panamera  4 apart 
from the multifunction steering wheel 
(p. 62) are cruise control (p. 102),   
automatic climate control and the CDR 
audio system (p.  92). Options include 
Porsche Communication Management 
(PCM, p. 92) and the BOSE
® Surround 
Sound System (p.  98) or Burmester
® 
High-End Surround Sound System (p.  98). 
 
A comprehensive range of personalisation 
options is available to you. These include, 
for example, a selection of two-tone 
finishes and other colour and material 
combinations (more on these from 
page 110 onwards).

Many roads lead to your destination. But 
which ones take you further? To a new 
future? With a sports car for the road and 
for the 21st century?  
 
E-mobilit y is the next big step. With the 
Panamera S E-Hybrid we are bringing to 
the road a total concept that net works 
the car and its driver in an intelligent way. 
Its performance puts most sports cars to 
shame. Yet its fuel consumption is far 
below the rate you would usually expect 
of a sports car.   
 
Still one of the most fascinating destinations of any journey:   
new territory.  
 
The new Panamera S E-Hybrid.
In the new Panamera S E-Hybrid, 
innovative bat tery technology and a 
powerful electric motor herald a lit tle 
revolution in alternative drives: driving 
pleasure. We round off our concept with 
practical solutions, which we’ve realised 
with e-mobility services* – smartphone 
access and control functionalities – and 
with practical charging systems. Now you 
can top up your car’s energy levels by 
plugging it into an electrical socket using 
the Porsche Universal Charger (AC) 
provided as standard. For an all-electric 
range of up to 36 km (in NEDC). You will  find more information about the drive 
concept, charging options and e-mobility 
services in our separate e-mobility 
brochure. Drive forces are transmit ted as 
standard by the 8-speed Tiptronic S 
(p. 58). Also fit ted as standard are the 
adaptive air sus
  pen sion with Porsche 
Active Suspension Management (PASM, 
p. 65) and the speed-sensitive Power 
steering Plus (p.  62). 
 
The Panamera S E-Hybrid maintains its 
visual identit y with the customary 
‘e-hybrid’ logo on the front doors, the  ‘
  Panamera S’ logo on the rear hatch with 
an Acid Green surround, the same as the 
needles of the newly developed power 
meter in the centre of the instrument 
cluster. The brake calipers are also 
finished in Acid Green as standard. The 
features it shares with the S model –   
the exterior design and the exquisite 
styling of the interior – are similarly 
characteristic. It almost goes without 
saying that a comprehensive range of 
personalisation options is available. 
These are listed from page 110 onwards.

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?

Engines. 
Increasing power output, reducing fuel 
consumption. Brief fulfilled. With engines 
characterised by sporty performance  
and yet comparatively low energy 
consumption and CO
2 emissions.   
 
This has been achieved thanks to 
technologies such as direct fuel injection 
(DFI), VarioCam Plus or variable camshaft 
control, turbocharging, recuperation,   
the auto start/stop function, the coasting 
function or the use of plug-in hybrid 
technology. The engines are structurally 
rigid and, thanks to aluminium cylinder 
heads and magnesium valve covers  (except the Panamera S E-Hybrid), they 
are comparatively light weight. This helps 
to ensure a decent weight-to -power 
 
ratio and balanced weight distribution.  
 
Let’s take the new engine generation of 
the Panamera  S and Panamera  4S as  
an example. It may have been stripped   
of t wo cylinders and its displacement 
reduced by 1.8 litres compared with   
that of its predecessor, but it has been 
given a twin-turbocharger arrangement. 
This is where the figures begin an  
upward trend. Increased power output, 
greater dynamics and enhanced 
e f f ici e n cy.
Direct fuel injection (DFI). 
With millisecond precision, DFI injects   
fuel at up to 120 bar directly into the 
combustion chamber by means of 
electromagnetically actuated injection 
valves. DFI also improves the internal 
cooling of the combustion chamber by 
having the mixture prepared directly in 
the cylinder. The higher compression ratio 
helps to deliver more output at the same 
time as enhanced engine efficiency.

Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK). 
Offering both a manual gearshift and an 
automatic mode, 7-speed PDK promises 
to deliver sports performance with 
efficiency and comfort as well as  
rapid gear changes with no discernible 
interruption in the flow of power. 
PDK is essentially t wo gearboxes in one. 
The double clutch provides an alternating,
 
friction-locked connection between these 
t wo half gearboxes and the engine. Gears 
1 to 6 have a sports ratio and top speed 
is reached in 6th gear. The 7th gear 
has a long ratio, which helps to keep the 
engine revs low, even at high speeds. 
Depending on the gearshift programme  (SPORT button activated or deactivated), 
the gear change is optimised for comfort 
or sporty driving.
 
 
For the Panamera GTS, we’ve made PDK 
even sportier. The gearshift programmes 
(Normal, SPORT or SPORT PLUS) 
configure the gear changes to be sport y 
to extremely sport y. During an upshift, 
for example, selected engine cylinders 
are deactivated temporarily, which 
enables the speed of the engine to be 
synchronised with the speed of the 
transmission more quickly. This results   
in even faster shift times accompanied 
by a characteristic motorsport engine 
sound.  
After all, you also control your muscles with your head.

8-speed Tiptronic S.
8-speed Tiptronic S in the Panamera S 
E-Hybrid reduces fuel consumption   
and improves comfort. How? With a 
particularly wide gear ratio spread. The 
relatively low engine speeds in the upper 
gears reduce noise levels in the interior, 
especially on the motorway. The 8-speed 
Tiptronic S shifts automatically and 
adapts to your driving st yle. Of course, 
you can still change gear manually at   
the gear selector itself or using the t wo 
ergonomic gearshift switches on the 
steering wheel.Multifunction steering wheel, Sport Chrono Package

Porsche Traction Management (PTM). 
Porsche Traction Management (PTM) 
comprises an active all-wheel drive with 
electronic and map - controlled multi - plate 
clutch, with automatic brake differential 
(ABD) and anti-slip regulation (ASR). 
 
The electronically controlled multi - plate 
clutch regulates the distribution of drive 
force bet ween the permanently driven 
rear axle and the front axle. Through 
continuous monitoring of the driving 
conditions, the electronics are able to  respond to a variet y of situations. 
Sensors check, among other variables, 
the rotation speeds of all four wheels, 
longitudinal and lateral acceleration of 
the vehicle, and the steering angle. If, for 
example, the rear wheels spin under 
acceleration, a greater proportion of 
drive force is redirected to the front by a 
more powerful engagement of the multi-
plate clutch. In addition, ASR reduces 
wheel slip. In corners, the drive force 
sent to the front wheels is regulated for 
optimum lateral stability.
Exerting your authority. Letting go. Providing balance. 
 
Typical powers of management.  
 
Chassis.
In this way, PTM, in conjunction with   
the upgraded version of Porsche Stabilit y 
Management (PSM, p.  67) ensures 
optimum force delivery in every driving 
situation and excellent acceleration 
power: whether on long straights, through 
tight corners, or on road surfaces with 
varying grip.  
Standard in the Panamera 4, 
Panamera  4S, Panamera GTS and 
Panamera Turbo.
