NEW PANAMERA MODELS LAUNCHED

Following the online launch of the comprehensively revamped Panamera in August, Porsche announced the launch of three new models: the Panamera Turbo S E-hybrid, the 4 E-hybrid and the 4S. Alongside the already unveiled 4S E-hybrid, these new offerings mean Porsche now produces three PHEV Panameras for the first time, each in the three available body variants of sports saloon, Executive (longwheelbase saloon) and Sport Turismo. The launch is widely seen as Porsche systematically extending its E-performance strategy.

The chassis and control systems have been tuned for sportiness and comfort in all three new Panamera models. In some cases, a completely new control strategy has been implemented. A new generation of steering control system and new tyres ensure improved lateral dynamics and greater precision, while the flagship Turbo S E-hybrid (563bhp fourlitre twin-turbo V8) comes as standard with all currently available chassis and control systems, such as the Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control Sport (PDCC Sport) electric roll stabilisation system, which includes Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV Plus), rear axle steering with Power Steering Plus and Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB).
