Porsche Stability Management
(PSM).
PSM is an automatic control system
for stabilit y even at the limits of
dynamic driving performance.
Sensors continuously monitor the
direction, speed, yaw velocit y and
lateral acceleration of the vehicle.
PSM uses these values to calculate
the actual direction of travel. If
the car begins to oversteer or
understeer, PSM applies selective
braking on individual wheels to
restore stability.
When accelerating on low-grip
road surfaces, PSM increases
traction using the automatic brake
dif ferential (ABD) and anti-slip
regulation (ASR). For a more active
driving experience, PSM can be
switched off but it remains active
in the background.
Two further functions of PSM
include precharging of the braking
system, to achieve maximum
braking force earlier, and brake
assist for maximum deceleration
in an emergency.
SPORT button.
The standard SPORT but ton is
used to switch bet ween comfort
and sport y setups. At the push of
a but ton, the electronic engine
management system makes the
engine more responsive so that the
engine dynamics become more
direct. The 8-speed Tiptronic S
gearbox shifts up later – and down
earlier. Porsche Active Suspension
Management (PASM) is set to
SPORT mode for harder damping
and more direct steering and,
therefore, greater agilit y on cor-
nering.
Even in SPORT mode, all driving
modes specific to the hybrid
engine are retained, such as elec-
tric driving or recuperation.
E-Power supports the combustion
engine at just 80 % accelerator
pedal position, instead of only on
kick-down as usual.
Sport Chrono Package Plus.
Sport Chrono Package Plus is
available as an option for the
Panamera S Hybrid (only in
conjunction with Porsche Commu-
nication Management – PCM) for an
even sportier vehicle setup.
This includes a digital and analogue
stopwatch, the SPORT PLUS button
and a performance display in the
PCM for lap times. When the
SPORT PLUS but ton in the centre
console activates SPORT PLUS
mode, the engine management
system makes the engine more
responsive, as in SPORT mode.
Porsche Active Suspension Manage-
ment (PASM) is set to SPORT PLUS
mode for harder damping. The
adaptive pneumatic suspension
lowers the vehicle and switches
to a harder spring rate.
Porsche Stabilit y Management
(PSM) intervenes later in SPORT
PLUS mode – for increased
longitudinal and lateral dynamics.
Agilit y is enhanced when braking
for corners with PSM enabling
greater manoeuvrabilit y under
braking and exit acceleration,
particularly at low speeds. SPORT PLUS mode of fers even
more agilit y when PSM is switched
off. However, for safet y, it is set to
intervene automatically only when
ABS assistance is required on both
of the front wheels.
A key component of the Sport
Chrono Package Plus is the
stopwatch mounted on the dash-
board. It displays, stores and
analyses lap times and times for alternative routes and Porsche
Communication Management
(PCM) is extended to include the
performance display.

CDR-31 audio system.
The CDR-31 audio system has a
7-inch colour touchscreen for
intuitive control of key functions
and menus. The integral CD radio,
including FM dual tuner and RDS
diversit y, 30 memory presets,
dynamic autostore and speed-
sensitive volume control, com-
prises a sound system with 10 loudspeakers and a total audio
output of 100 Wat ts. An optional
integrated six-disc CD/DVD auto -
changer is available. As an option,
CDR-31 can be combined with the
BOSE
® Surround Sound System.
Porsche Communication
Management (PCM) with
navigation module.
Porsche Communication Manage-
ment (PCM) is available as an
option on the new Panamera S
Hybrid. PCM is the central
information and communication
system. Powerful, versatile –
yet easy to operate.
The focal point is the 7-inch high-
resolution touchscreen. A maxi-
mum of five entries per page
ensures clarit y of presentation. In
specific situations, a help function
is displayed at the bot tom of the
screen.
A central function of the PCM in
the Panamera S Hybrid is the
graphic display of the hybrid drive
with its energy flow diagram, e. g.
for E-driving, E-Power, recuperation
or coasting. A statistical display
also shows the proportion of
driving that is emission-free, in
relation to the total driving time.
The radio has 42 memory presets,
an FM dual tuner with RDS diversit y which constantly scans in the back-
ground for the best signal, and a
dynamic autostore.
The CD/DVD drive plays CDs and
audio DVDs and is MP3-compatible.
Audio playback of video DVDs is
also supported. A six-disc CD/DVD
autochanger integrated in the PCM
is available as an option.
An optional universal audio interface
in the storage compartment of
the front centre console provides
a USB port for the connection and
charging of various iPod
® and
iPhone
® models, and for connect-
ing MP3 players or USB memory
sticks with MP3 music. It is oper-
ated
via the PCM, the optional
multifunction steering wheel or the
optional voice control. The USB port can also be used to download
the data on the electronic logbook.
The AUX interface is used to
connect an external audio source,
operated directly on the device
connected.
The navigation module with high-
speed hard drive, included with
PCM, gives you a choice bet ween
perspective or a t wo-dimensional
map view. You can also display
scenes and buildings in 3D in
some areas. The remaining route
is automatically adapted to the
maximum screen size. Split screen
mode enables you to view not only
the current map section but also
a list of symbols representing
your next driving manoeuvres.
Operation via the touchscreen is
quick and easy. Just touch the
TMC symbol in the map, for
example, and the dynamic route
guide via the TMC function
(Traffic Message Channel) is
immediately activated.
