3rd generation new Panamera announced

World premiere in Shanghai on November 24, 2023

The third generation Porsche Panamera was announced on November 24, 2023.

The new Panamera is said to feature a wider range of digital functions, a fresh and expressive design and a perfect balance between dynamic performance and driving comfort.

A more powerful E-Hybrid powertrain and new high-spec suspension system make the new Panamera the most dynamic sedan on offer in its segment.

What is the 3rd generation Panamera?

Now, let's take a look at the announced 3rd generation Panamera:

• The luxury sedan Panamera emphasizes sportiness with an even more powerful drive system
  • Further enhanced by a fundamentally modern operating concept and many innovative technologies
  • This includes the new Porsche ActiveRide suspension system, which combines very high levels of comfort and sporty driving characteristics.

• Integrating your own digital ecosystem into the Porsche Communication Management System (PCM) enables new interactions with your car.
• The design of the new Panamera is technical, yet elegant and dynamic, adding a fresh update to the series' attractive proportions.
• The driving experience is enhanced by a range of driver assistance systems and a completely redesigned interior that focuses on the driver.

latest suspension system

• The new Panamera comes standard with two-chamber, two-valve air suspension with Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM).
• Two-valve technology separates the extension and compression stages of damper control, further expanding the range of comfort and sportiness.
• This system significantly reduces road surface damage and impacts caused by road surface seams, while ensuring vehicle stability in dynamic driving situations.
• Furthermore, the optional all-wheel steering further improves the vehicle's handling.

• The innovative Porsche Active Ride suspension system is available as an option on the new Panamera E-Hybrid model.
  • This system is superior to any other suspension concept and offers an unprecedented range of driving dynamics and driving comfort.
  • The basis is a newly developed active shock absorber with two-valve technology, each connected to an electric hydraulic pump.
  • This generates the required flow in the damper, which generates the necessary force between the body and wheels precisely and instantly, almost completely canceling out the forces generated by the road surface.
  • A lightweight single-chamber air suspension system complements this technology.

• The new Panamera's chassis features dynamic braking and steering, and the body remains flat even when accelerating.
• Almost completely absorbs shocks from bumps and other bumps for a smooth ride
• During dynamic drives, the Porsche Active Ride suspension system distributes the wheel load evenly for perfect contact with the road.

• When the corresponding mode is activated, the suspension compensates to strongly counteract pitching and rolling tendencies, reducing acceleration forces on the occupants.
  • With this setting, the new Panamera leans into corners like a motorcycle
  • The front lowers when accelerating and the rear lowers when decelerating.
  • When stopped, the Porsche ActiveRide suspension system raises the body to a comfortable entry and exit height.

Further improved E-performance and a completely revised engine

• The new Panamera is available with four E-Hybrid powertrain models to meet the high demand for this type of drive system.
• All E-Hybrid models deliver better performance, range and efficiency
• Panamera Turbo E Hybrid is already available for sale (*Not yet in Japan)
  • At the heart of the Turbo E Hybrid powertrain is a radically improved 4.0-liter V8 turbo engine.

• The output of the newly developed electric motor is 140kW (190PS)
• When combined with this, the system output is 500kW (680PS) and the system torque is 930Nm.
• Electric motor integrated into the housing of a completely redesigned 8-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission
• By eliminating the separate E-motor housing, weight is reduced by approximately 5 kg.
• Furthermore, by incorporating this unit into the transmission oil circuit, the heat balance of the electric unit is optimized, making it possible to obtain higher output from the electric motor.

• The new Panamera Turbo E Hybrid accelerates to 100 km/h in 3.2 seconds and has a top speed of 315 km/h.
• Battery capacity is 25.9kWh
• This enables electric driving of up to 91km on the WLTP combined cycle and 83-93km on the city cycle.
• Equipped with a new 11kW on-board AC charger, charging time can be reduced to 2 hours and 39 minutes at suitable charging points.

• This time, Panamera 4 will also be sold at the same time.
• The performance of the 2.9-liter V6 turbo engine has been optimized by changing boost pressure, fuel injection flow rate, and ignition timing.
• The maximum output is 260kW (353PS), which is 17kW (23PS) higher than the previous model, and the maximum torque is 500Nm, 50Nm higher than the previous model.
• Panamera's 0-100km time is reduced to 5.1 seconds, with a top speed of 272km/h.
• All-wheel drive Panamera 4 reaches 270 km/h in 4.8 seconds

Luxury and sporty inside and out

• The new Panamera retains the series' characteristic lines and proportions
• Overall length of the vehicle is 5,052 mm (5,202 mm for Executive), width 1,937 mm, and height 1,423 mm (1,428 mm for Executive).
• The completely redesigned exterior gives the sports sedan an even more expressive and sporty impression.
• An air intake has been added above the front number plate to supplement the air needed by the drive system.
• The side view window line has been completely redesigned, emphasizing the sedan-like appearance of a 4-door sports car.
• The outer edge of the rear window is flush with the contour of the body, creating a harmonious line at the rear.

• The cockpit of the Porsche Driver Experience features an ideal balance of digital and analog operations, with input and output elements essential for driving placed on the driver's axis.
• The gear selector lever is on the right side of the steering wheel
• You can also directly access the mode switch (switching between normal, sport, and sport plus driving programs) and the assistance control lever.
• Drivers do not have to take their eyes off the road when adjusting drive programs and assistance systems.

• Optional passenger display allows passengers to be more involved in the driving experience
• The 10.9-inch screen displays vehicle performance data depending on the operation, and also supports operating the infotainment system while driving and video streaming.
• The passenger display screen in the passenger seat cannot be seen from the driver's seat.
