Porsche has just unveiled the 2024 Porsche Panamera, marking the beginning of the third generation of the model. The luxury sedan, known for its sporty performance, features a redesigned exterior, a state-of-the-art digital cockpit and an extended range of advanced assistance systems. With the new Panamera, Porsche aims to maintain its leadership position in the luxury sports car segment, and one way it’s doing that is by offering a range of E-Hybrid models – four to be exact. (Except those won’t be offered initially; buyers will have to wait for the electrified variants).
Design of the 2024 Porsche Panamera
The new design of the Panamera includes sharp lines and well-defined proportions, highlighting its dynamic character. Some of the new design elements, such as additional air intakes, are also crafted to meet the requirements of the updated powertrains.
The Turbo E-Hybrid models stand out with specific design elements, including dark bronze exhaust pipes.
Interior of the 2024 Porsche Panamera
The interior of the new edition follows the Porsche Driver Experience concept, offering a digital cockpit integrating both analog and digital controls. With a driver-oriented layout, Porsche aims to enhance the driving experience while preserving a high level of comfort and luxury.
