Review and specifications

2024 Porsche Panamera

The third generation of the Panamera debuted with more horsepower and more tech. The 2.9-liter turbocharged V6 engine now makes 325-hp. The E-Hybrid is a reworked 4.0-liter turbo V8 engine paired with a new hybrid that makes a total of 670-hp. The standard eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission is new. All versions except for the base car come with all-wheel drive. Four plug-in hybrids will also be offered later. A new suspension system called Porsche Active Ride is available. It consists of active shock absorbers powered by an electrically-operated hydraulic pump. This large four-door luxury car hides beneath a coupe silhouette and retains its versatile hatchback configuration. The previous Panamera delivers performance and agility, along with enough room for four adults to ride comfortably. The interior features a large touchscreen that's used to interact with the audio, phone, and navigation functions. The electronic gear selector is confusing to use, and the piano-black buttons that surround it create visual and sensory overload.
