EURO LOVE FOR PANAMERA HYBRID

More than 60% of all new Panamera models sold in Europe since June 2017 are equipped with a hybrid drive, and in some countries, the proportion of hybrid vehicles are as high as 90%. The Panamera model with a plug-in hybrid drive has a purely electric range of up to 50 km and a system power output of 500 kW. “Electro-mobility is the future”, said Albrecht Reimold, Member of the Executive Board for Production and Logistics at Porsche AG, at a presentation of the new Panamera plug-in hybrid models. “Porsche and electro-mobility is a perfect match.” The next step for Porsche is the Mission E. Preparations are underway in Zuffenhausen for the production of Porsche’s first purely battery-powered sports car. The vehicle will have a range of 500 km and will sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in less than 3.5 seconds. Using fast charging, it will be possible to charge its battery to 80% in just 15 minutes. According to Reimold, it is the most ambitious project ever undertaken by Porsche.
