Last updated on October 18th, 2024 at 02:34 pm

On November 22, 2023, Porsche unveiled the third generation of its Panamera luxury sedan in India. The new Panamera is more powerful, more luxurious, and more technologically advanced than ever before.

Exterior

The new Panamera is a significant evolution of the previous model, with a sleeker and more aggressive design. The front end features a new grille, redesigned headlights, and a larger air intake. The side profile is more muscular, with a longer wheelbase and more pronounced haunches. The rear end is also new, with a more sculpted bumper and new taillights.

Interior

The new Panamera’s interior is a luxurious and tech-laden affair. The dashboard is dominated by a 12-inch touchscreen infotainment system, which is flanked by two digital instrument clusters. The center console is also new, with a new gear selector and a touchpad. The seats are heated and ventilated, and there is ample legroom and headroom for both front and rear passengers.

Engine

The new Panamera is available with a variety of engines, including a twin-turbocharged V6, a twin-turbocharged V8, and a plug-in hybrid. The base V6 produces 330 horsepower, while the V8 produces 480 horsepower. The plug-in hybrid produces a combined 680 horsepower. All engines are paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission.

Performance

The new Panamera is a true performance car. The base V6 can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 5.6 seconds, while the V8 can do it in 3.4 seconds. The plug-in hybrid can go 0 to 60 mph in 3.2 seconds, and it has an electric range of 20 miles.

Technology

The new Panamera is packed with the latest technology. The Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) system is standard, and it can adjust the suspension damping to provide a comfortable or sporty ride. The Porsche InnoDrive system is also available, and it uses adaptive cruise control and lane keeping assist to make driving on the highway more relaxing.

Price

The new Panamera starts at Rs. 1.68 crore (ex-showroom). This is a significant increase over the previous model, which started at Rs. 1.57 crore. However, the new Panamera is a more powerful, more luxurious, and more technologically advanced car, so the price increase is justified.

Conclusion

The new Porsche Panamera is a groundbreaking car that sets a new standard for luxury performance sedans. It is a must-have for anyone who wants the best of the best.

Additional Information

The new Panamera is available in a variety of body styles, including a sedan, a Sport Turismo wagon, and an Executive long-wheelbase sedan.
The new Panamera is available with a variety of optional features, including a panoramic sunroof, a massaging seat system, and a rear-seat entertainment system.
Porsche India is offering a three-year warranty on the new Panamera.

Review

The new Porsche Panamera is a truly exceptional car. It is a perfect blend of luxury, performance, and technology. I highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for the ultimate driving experience.
