Porsche Panamera - interior and Exterior Details (Beast in detail)

Thanks: Borishof 2023 Porsche Panamera Starting at $93.850 Highs: One fun family car, loads of performance, plenty of people room and cargo capacity. Lows: Options easily move the price tag into the stratosphere, fussy interior controls, hybrid model’s braking system could use refinement. Verdict: The Panamera is the Porsche 911 for people with kids who refuse to cave and buy a Cayenne SUV. Overview The Panamera breaks from many long-time Porsche traditions. It’s got its engine in the front rather than in the middle or the rear. It caters to families who have outgrown the narrow comforts of the two-door 911. While the Panamera offers two more seats, more legroom and additional cargo space it’s still a joyful ride that can deliver a driving experience worthy of repeating. Power comes from a standard 325-hp turbocharged V-6; rear-wheel drive is standard but four-tire fire is optional. For more power, the Panamera 4S AWD model unlocks the 440-hp twin-turbo V-6, but life really speeds up in the 473-hp twin-turbo V-8 in Panamera GTS. Even the base Panamera exhibits sports-car-like handling, with decisive steering and incredible grip that together deliver raw driving pleasure—something the bigger sedans from Audi, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz lack. For a smidge of additional cargo space, the Panamera Sport Turismo, reviewed separately, has a more suitcase-friendly rear shape. If you prefer your wagon tied to up to 689 ponies, the Panamera Turbo, also reviewed separately, might have the right herd for you. What's New for 2023? Porsche doesn’t make any significant changes to the Panamera for 2023. While it’s been left largely unchanged since its refresh in 2021, this year the biggest update is standard adaptive cruise control across all trim levels. Pricing and Which One to Buy The price of the 2023 Porsche Panamera starts at $93.850 and goes up to $136.650 depending on the trim and options. Panamera: $93,850 Panamera 4: $98,450 Panamera 4 E-Hybrid: $110,450 Panamera 4S: $112,350 Panamera GTS: $136,650 Engine, Transmission, and Performance With agile handling and a smooth ride, especially when equipped with the optional adjustable air suspension, the Panamera is a thrill to drive. It also provides the comfort and luxury expected of such an expensive four-door hatchback. Every Panamera comes with a boosted engine, but only some wear the Turbo badge. We review those models separately. The base rear-wheel-drive Panamera and all-wheel-drive Panamera 4 feature a 325-hp turbocharged 2.9-liter V-6. The base rear-drive model zips to 60 mph in a fleet 4.4 seconds. Under the hood of the considerably quicker 4S model—60 mph in 3.6 seconds—is a 440-hp twin-turbo 2.9-liter V-6. Upgrading to the GTS gives you a 473-hp twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8. It's the best performing of the non-Turbo line, with a 3.2-second 60-mph time. However, its suspension sacrifices some ride quality in the name of handling. Porsche also offers plug-in Panameras, with a 455-hp powertrain in the 4 E-Hybrid and a 552-hp setup in the 4S E-Hybrid.
