Exterior design
Let's start with the aspect of a Porsche that always attracts the most attention: the back. The rear end displays a wide physique and is clearly contoured, with all lines emphasising the horizontal orientation of the vehicle concept. The newly refined, higher roof line falls away to the rear, the large-size rear side windows narrow to a point. Nevertheless, passengers in the second row still have plenty of room to get in. A sports car: sharp, agile, contemporary.
Extraordinary describes the adaptive roof spoiler above the expansive rear screen. At high speeds, it reduces lift at the rear axle and helps to ensure outstanding driving stability, high performance and greater driving pleasure.
Conspicuous, in the best sense of the word, describes the light strip on the rear end and the three-dimensionally shaped LED taillights with four-point brake lights. Characteristic of the stylish look commanded by the Panamera Turbo Sport Turismo and the Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Sport Turismo are the imposing Turbo-specific twin tailpipes. The Panamera 4S is equipped with round twin tailpipes, the Panamera 4 models with a single tailpipe on the right and left.
The fact that stylish design and everyday practicality are not mutually exclusive is demonstrated by the large rear hatch and the low loading edge, which makes it easier to integrate more than just everyday things into the Panamera Sport Turismo – and your life. Above all the sports car has an extraordinary capacity of up to 1,390 litres.
The rear of a sports car boasts sporty attitude. The front and sides, however, reveal a lot about the vehicle concept's elegance and contouring.
From this perspective, the proportions of the new Panamera Sport Turismo models are above all: Porsche. The eye is drawn to clearly perceived rounded transitions, powerful muscles and a sharpened sports car silhouette.
The wheelbase is long. At the front, the overhang is comparatively short, which reinforces the dynamic impression. The side has been intensely sculpted, resulting in the characteristic Porsche waistline and sense of lightness.
An identifying feature of the new Panamera Turbo Sport Turismo and the new Panamera Turbo S E Hybrid Sport Turismo: the side air outlets in the front wings are finished in the exterior colour of the car. They underline – along with the distinctive front end featuring characteristic front light units – the dominant position that the Panamera Turbo Sport Turismo maintains.
A hallmark of all Panamera models: LED main headlights with four-point daytime running lights, supplemented on the Panamera Turbo Sport Turismo and the Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Sport Turismo by the Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS).
The Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Sport Turismo stands on 21-inch 911 Turbo Design wheels. Its brake calipers painted in Acid Green are a typical sign of Porsche E-Performance.
The Panamera Turbo Sport Turismo is further distinguished by 20-inch Panamera Turbo wheels and brake calipers with a red finish. The power of the Panamera 4S Sport Turismo is delivered to the road by 19-inch Panamera S wheels. Behind them: brake calipers in Titanium Grey. The Panamera 4 and Panamera 4 E-Hybrid Sport Turismo are equipped with 19-inch Panamera wheels. Their brake calipers have a black anodised finish, while those of the E-Hybrid are painted in Acid Green.
