Being that the E-Hybrid was one of the main attractions on this press excursion, the keys to the three European spec cars were snatched up as quickly as possible, and I had to wait my turn. When I did get behind the wheel, though, what I found was certainly interesting. This car feels exactly like a Panamera, it looks exactly like a Panamera, and …

2014 Porsche Panamera Turbo Executive Review
To truly review this Panamera they way it was meant to be used would require a chauffer. As Porsche didn't offer one up I took myself for a drive and promptly got lost, intentionally. I ended up nearly an hour away from where I was supposed to be. This was through no fault of the navigation system, as I didn't use it. The secret is that this …

This is a story about a button. Not just any button mind you, but one that has the ability to transform things, like my opinion, and the driving characteristics of the 2014 Panamera 4S. But wait, I'm getting ahead of myself. You see, at first drive, I was underwhelmed with the changes made to the new Panamera 4S. The new engine, a 3.0 liter …

To provide a good bookend for my time with the Panamera lineup, I decided to end the trip with the two-wheel-drive version of the car I drove first, the Panamera S. After a palette cleansing dinner, wine tasting, and an adequate amount of sleep, I woke up with a fresh perspective, and I am glad that I saved this one for last, because it surprised …

The beauty of this weekend with the entire Panamera line-up was the ability to jump from one end of the spectrum to the other and experience each of these sedans as compared to the others. On that note, to end my day, I stepped out of the e-hybrid directly into the GTS. I'd never driven a GTS before, and I was excited to finally put foot to pedal. …

One of the things that I love about Porsche is the exhaust note. In fact, it was this sound that first drew us to Porsche motorsports (you've gotta love a sport you can hear before you can see it). So watching a new Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid drive by silently just seems wrong. On the other hand, the fact that you can seamlessly switch between …

I know, I know, for some the mere idea of the Panamera is blasphemy. Too bad! I don't care. I can't help myself. The Panamera has grown on me (a far cry from my first impressions) and I'm now hoping that John will replace his MB with a Panamera when that time comes. Even if you're not a huge fan of the way they look, you need to drive one before …

Porsche has always built sports cars with an impulse to move forward, to be faster, to come in first. This philosophy is deep in their genes, not only when it comes to crossing the finishing line, but with new ideas, too. So it's normal for them to move forward in new directions. Directions like the Panamera S E-Hybrid. Watch the video below to …

The new Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid offers an entirely new electric driving experience. On the one hand, it lets the driver accelerate silently up to 84 mp/h with 70 kilowatts of power. On the other, it is truly a classic GT, which - with the combined powers of a combustion engine and an electric motor - can sprint from 0 to 62 mp/h in 5.5 seconds. …

Last week, on the 15th of May, the Porsche plant in Leipzig, Germany, produced the 100,000th Panamera. Not bad considering it was introduced just four short years ago. The milestone vehicle is a new Panamera S E-Hybrid in “rhodium-silver metallic”. This vehicle, the world’s first plug-in hybrid of the luxury class, made its debut before a …
