Gas Economic Climate

The bottom 2014 Porsche Panamera (rear-wheel drive) and Panamera 4 (all-wheel drive) function a 310-horsepower V6, as the Panamera S and 4S obtain an innovative new twin-turbocharged 420-hp V6 for 2014. The plug-in Panamera S E-Hybrid is powered by a supercharged V6 and a 95-hp electric engine that produce an overall total of 416 hp. The GTS features a 440-hp V8, and the Panamera Turbo rocks a 520-hp twin-turbocharged version of that V8.

Environmental cover department (EPA) fuel-economy quotes were still being computed at the time this article had been written, but we can let you know that base 2013 Panamera garnered an extraordinary score of 18 kilometers per gallon city/27 mpg highway, using the GTS losing to 16 mpg city/23 mpg hwy together with Turbo to 15 mpg city/23 mpg hwy. Those figures should not transform much, although brand-new V6-powered S and 4S should improve in the 16 mpg city/24 mpg hwy score of these V8-powered predecessors.

When it comes to plug-in S E-Hybrid, it provides a more substantial lithium-ion battery power than a year ago's non-plug-in hybrid design, which makes it possible for it to cover around 20 kilometers on battery power alone at as much as 84 miles per hour. For those who have access to a 240-volt charging section, the S E-Hybrid's exhausted battery pack could be recharged in only 2.5 hours.

Remember that all Panameras use a 7-speed dual-clutch automated handbook transmission called PDK - except the crossbreed, which hires a regular 8-speed automated.
