By DesignTekBoosting performance and efficiency is a core competency at Porsche. In developing the new Panamera 4S, this focus led to the creation of an entirely new engine based on the downsizing concept: a 3.0ltr V6 bi turbo. This V6 biturbo replaces the previous 4.8ltr V8 in the Panamera S and Panamera 4S, and is also used in the new Executive version of the Panamera 4S. The improvements are evident: 20 more horsepower, an additional 20 Newton meters of torque, and up to 18 percent better fuel economy compared to the previous V8 engine. This upgrade not only provides drivers with a more powerful and efficient engine, but the turbocharging also delivers a maximum torque of 520 Newton meters over a broad range of engine speeds, ensuring a superior and consistent power curve even at low revs.
On April 3, 2013, Porsche announced its updated Panamera, with a formal launch set for Auto Shanghai. The revised model featured new front and rear bumpers and introduced significant technical changes.
