CarTell take
We haven't driven the Panamera yet. On paper, porsche Active Ride is restricted to the 4S E-Hybrid and Turbo S E-Hybrid. Options can lift a Turbo S E-Hybrid past $500,000 quickly. Confirm 3-phase wallbox install at home if buying PHEV.
Why consider it
- Turbo S E-Hybrid claims 2.9 seconds 0 to 100, three PHEV variants offer up to 91 km WLTP EV range, and Porsche Active Ride hydraulic suspension is genuinely segment-defining tech.
What to know
- $246,700 entry point is the highest a Panamera has ever opened at.
- PHEV boot space drops to 421 L because of the battery, and the 3-year warranty trails the segment.
Who it suits
Driver-focused executives wanting a 575 kW four-door with a hatch boot, PHEV commuters needing 91 km of WLTP electric range, and business owners building an FBT-efficient PHEV case.
