    • A new electro-mechanical steering system.
    • For the first time, the Panamera will get Porsche’s rear-wheel steering
    • Launch versions get either 2.9-litre turbocharged V6 or 4.0-litre V8 engines
    • There is also a 4.0-litre V8 diesel with permanent four-wheel drive
    • All engines are paired to a new eight-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox
    • UPDATE: Ring time of 7:38 makes it the fastest luxury sedan

    The 2.9-liter V6 biturbo petrol engine of the Panamera 4S produces a maximum power of 434hp (+20hp) and 550Nm +30Nm), enough to push it to 100km/h in 4.4 seconds or 4.2 seconds with the Sport Chrono Package, and on to a top speed of 289km/h. It returns a combined fuel economy of between 8.2 – 8.1 l/100 km representing a fuel saving of up to 1.0 l/100 km or 11 percent over the previous 4S.

    Sitting at the top of the range for now is the new Panamera Turbo with a 542hp (+30hp) and 770Nm / (+70Nm) 4.0-liter biturbo V8 petrol. With a power-to-weight ratio of 3.6 kg/hp, the Turbo hits 100km/h in 3.8 sec or 3.6 sec with the Sport Chrono Package, topping out at 306km/h. Porsche says it consumes between 9.4 – 9.3 l/100 km on average, or up to 1.1 l/100 km less than that of the previous model.

    A new addition to the lineup is the Panamera 4S Diesel with a 416hp and 850Nm 4.0-liter V8, making it the most powerful production diesel Porsche ever. With a top speed of 285 km/h, it’s also the world’s fastest production vehicle with a diesel. It can reach the 100 km/h speed mark in 4.5 seconds (4.3 seconds with the Sport Chrono Package), while promising combined fuel consumption of 6.8 – 6.7 l/100 km.

    Additional powertrains will be added to the range further down the road.
