I fully admit that I was one of the people who didn’t think that an SUV from Porsche would sell. Seriously, would the same people that want prestige, design and speed really want to be driving a big SUV? I don’t think I have ever been more wrong!
You see more Cayennes on the road than all other Porsche cars combined. And now Porsche has come out with a 4-seater 4-door family sedan. Yes, that is correct: a family 4-door sedan from Porsche. This is going to be HUGE. Men, you will love me for this, but Ladies, this is a great family car – really!
I didn’t get invited to the launch of this new Porsche, so I haven't had the opportunity to take it out on the track. Regardless, the best part is that I actually get to live with this car for a week to see how a family sedan from Porsche would actually fit into my lifestyle. That week, I was in the last week of moving out of my townhouse and was curious to see how many boxes I could squeeze in there!
As I gazed upon pictures of this new Porsche, I really did not like it – something just looked off. But seeing it in person – I love it! My beautiful Dark Blue Metallic Panamera Turbo of the week looks like a 911 on steroids. It has the same head lights and front end as the storied car, but it is definitely bigger and badder. Walking around it, the curvy lines and aggressive stance just flow through all the way from the front to the rear. One word: Gorgeous!
The navy blue and tan leather with chrome accents interior is absolutely wonderful. Just as other Porsches before, the dials are laid out for speed and accuracy. It is a very impressive combination of luxury, class and modern technology.
I have friends that have been lining up to go for a ride with me all week. And even sitting in the rear seats, they were clearly impressed. The two bucket seats in the back are built for comfort as they are wide, supportive and offer enough head and leg room for just about everyone. This is one car that you would be just as happy sitting in the back seat as you would in the front. Of course, the driver’s seat is the place to be, but I will talk about that in just a bit.
The rear seats split and fold down flat. I had no problem completely loading the trunk with boxes. The Panamera has 432 litres (1,250 with seats folded) of space for cargo.
