It was about clear definitions,
and a clear statement.
Exterior.
How can one describe the appearance of
the Panamera models? A low, wide stance,
a sleek roofline: true sports car propor-
tions. The front, shoulders and rear all
have
instantly recognisable Porsche traits.
The face that stands out in the crowd.
However, the Panamera GTS goes one
step further. Even closer to the road, its
sport y character is even more clearly
demonstrated.
Let ’s start at the front. The Panamera GTS
is equipped as standard with Bi-Xenon main headlights, each with four LED day time
running spot lights. These have been
carried over from the Panamera Turbo,
but with one difference: the inner trims
are finished in black. These are matched
by the front light units taken from the
Panamera Turbo, with LED light guides
as a border for the indicators.
Other Panamera Turbo st yling features
include the SportDesign front apron with
large air intakes on the right and left for
supplying air to the t wo GTS-specific air
filter modules (refer to the ‘Engine’ section
for more information).
The side air outlets behind the front
wheels are finished in high-gloss black.
So, too, are the side window trims, the
covers of the headlight cleaning system,
the trim strip on the rear and the rear
d i f f u s e r. As a st ylish complement, the lower sec
-
tion of the Panamera GTS is finished in
mat t black. Starting from the side ends
of the front apron and moving back along
the door sills through to the rear apron
and the tailpipes of the sports exhaust
system, the line drawn appears more
dynamic. In conjunction with the 10 mm
lower suspension, the contour accentu -
ates
the sporty overall impression.
For greater downforce and driving stabil -
it y at high speeds, the Panamera GTS is
equipped with the Panamera Turbo
rear spoiler. From a speed of 55 mph
(90 km/ h), it deploys automatically not
only upwards but out wards, too.
To cope with the increased engine power
output, the Panamera GTS is equipped as
standard with 19-inch Panamera Turbo
wheels and the brake system of the Panamera Turbo, recognisable by the
red brake calipers.
The Panamera GTS is available in the
same exterior colours as the other
models in the Panamera range. An addi -
tional colour, Carmine Red, is available
as an option. Set against contrasting
black, it creates a sportier effect.
The ‘Panamera GTS’ logo on the rear
hatch and the optional logos on the lower
edge of the front doors add the finishing
touch to the overall appearance.
Sportiness in pure form. Be honest, would
you have expected the Panamera GTS to
be any thing else?

Balance
BalanceFor us, sportiness is always measured against the safet y on which every thing is based.
For a sports car like the Panamera GTS, this mat ters more than ever.
We plan for every eventuality.
Just to be on the safe side.
Lighting concept.
Foresight begins with good visibility.
This is why the Panamera GTS is
equipped with Bi-Xenon main headlights
including Porsche Dynamic Light System
(PDLS). Its dynamic cornering light func -
tion swivels the headlights towards the
inside of a bend, based on steering angle
and road speed, and the static cornering
lights activate the auxiliary headlights in order to illuminate more of the road at
tight bends and turns. In addition, PDLS
adapts light distribution to suit the cur
-
rent speed and visibility conditions. Also
fit ted as standard are the four LED day -
time running spot lights in each main
headlight.
The lighting system features a ‘Welcome
Home’ function – a customisable delayed
switch-off timer that keeps the day time
running lights, the taillights and the
courtesy lights in the exterior mirrors
switched on until you reach your front
door.
Engineered body design.
The fully galvanised light weight body-
shell in steel and aluminium produces a
highly resilient passenger cell that offers
high levels of protection in the event of
an impact. A system of longitudinal and
transverse members at the front absorbs
energy, disperses the force of impact
and minimises deformation of the pas -
senger cell. A rigid bulkhead cross mem -
ber reduces deformation of the foot well
and provides improved protection for
the feet and legs.
The active bonnet system is designed
with enhanced pedestrian safet y in mind.
If the sensors in the front apron detect
a collision, this system raises the rear
portion of the bonnet, which can help to
reduce the risk of injury.
Airbags.
In addition to knee airbags and full-size
airbags for the driver and front passen -
ger, the Panamera GTS is equipped as
standard with the Porsche Side Impact
Protection System (POSIP). This comprises
side airbags in the front seats, curtain
airbags along the entire roof frame and
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.
