Model guide

Porsche Panamera (972) overview

Editorial context for design, cabin, performance, practicality, and buyer notes.

Design

The exterior design of the Porsche Panamera (972) maintains its classic silhouette while adopting more aggressive lines. Key updates include a new air intake situated above the front license plate to meet the increased cooling requirements of the updated powertrains. A redesigned side window line highlights the liftback's sporty character, while the rear features clean, muscular lines that align with the brand's modern design language. Standard dimensions sit at 5,052 mm long and 1,937 mm wide, maintaining a commanding presence on the road.

Interior

Inside, the cockpit adopts the Porsche Driver Experience layout, positioning vital controls directly around the driver's seat. The gear selector is relocated to the right of the steering wheel, freeing up center console space, while drive mode switches reside directly on the wheel. Passengers can benefit from an optional 10.9-inch touchscreen integrated into the dashboard. This passenger-side screen supports infotainment adjustments and video streaming, using special filtering technology so it is not visible to the driver, minimizing distraction during travel.

Performance

The Panamera (972) offers diverse powertrain options based on a 2.9-liter twin-turbo V6 engine. The standard rear-wheel-drive Panamera and all-wheel-drive Panamera 4 produce 353 horsepower, paired with an 8-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission. Hybrid models, such as the Panamera 4 E-Hybrid and 4S E-Hybrid, combine this V6 with a 190-horsepower electric motor. Total system output reaches 470 horsepower in the 4 E-Hybrid and 544 horsepower in the 4S E-Hybrid, allowing the latter to sprint from zero to 100 km/h in just 3.7 seconds.

Practicality

As a large liftback, the Panamera provides practical cargo utility alongside its executive comfort. It features a 494-liter trunk, accessible via a wide rear hatch, making it highly usable for road trips and daily errands. The standard cabin layout comfortably accommodates four passengers. For those requiring extra rear legroom, a longer Executive version increases the wheelbase and overall height, ensuring top-tier passenger comfort for long-distance travel.

Safety and tech

Technology updates are centered around active safety and driver convenience. The Panamera (972) is equipped with adaptive suspension for improved ride quality across varying road surfaces. Standard and optional driver assistance features include active cruise control, traffic sign recognition, and a modern digital instrument cluster. Advanced LED lighting and multiple digital interfaces inside the cabin elevate both nighttime visibility and overall user connectivity.

Buyer notes

When looking at the Panamera (972) lineup, buyers should decide between standard rear-wheel drive and the all-wheel-drive Panamera 4. Those seeking maximum performance and improved fuel efficiency should look at the E-Hybrid models, which add plug-in capabilities and significant power boosts. Since exact features and trim availability can vary across global markets, it is recommended to verify local specifications for packages and standard suspension settings before ordering.
