Meet the 2024 Porsche Panamera, the third-generation sedan from the Stuttgart brand. Here’s a look at specs and pricing.

Many would argue the 911 and Cayenne are the more popular models, but the 2024 Porsche Panamera still commands some limelight for those wanting a practical sports sedan. The third-generation model has just been announced, with an updated look, interior upgrade, expanded engine lineup as well as a smart active air suspension setup.

The visual updates are subtle but the biggest change on the 2024 Porsche Panamera is the front, with a new LED Matrix headlight design, new grille and new intakes. There are new colours and wheel designs to choose from, while the rear retains its long LED taillight array and deployable spoiler. Physically, the new Panamera has near identical dimensions other than a 3mm increase in overall length.

Climb inside and you’ll see the new Panamera has a Taycan-inspired screen setup and for the first time there’s an optional 10.9-inch display for the front passenger. The gear lever has been removed to free up cabin space and this has been replaced by a gear selector on the steering wheel.

Engines and Performance

The 2024 Porsche Panamera will be offered internationally with four E-Hybrid powertrains, which now offer more power, better economy, but Porsche only announced information about the top-spec Turbo E-Hybrid motor for now. The 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 petrol is paired to an electric motor and the result is 500 kW! 0-100 kph is claimed in just 3 seconds and the car will run to 314 kph.

The standard Panamera models are carried over with both the entry-level Panamera and Panamera 4 featuring an upgraded version of the 2.9-litre turbocharged V6 engine. Outputs of 260 kW and 499 Nm are claimed, which is an increase of 17 kW and 50 Nm over the outgoing model. A 0-100 kph of 5 seconds is claimed, with the all-wheel-drive Panamera 4 going quicker with a 4.7 second dash.
