Panamera S V8 4.8L

The first 970.1 Panamera S, powered by a naturally aspirated 4.8-liter V8 engine and rear wheel drive (RWD), embodies a remarkable blend of passenger car comfort with the spirited energy of a sports car. Belonging to Porsche's 970 range of vehicles, the Panamera 4S is equipped with a double overhead camshaft, 4.8-liter naturally aspirated 8-cylinder engine, delivering robust power and performance.

Serving as an everyday passenger car, it delivered ample power, luxurious amenities, and a host of standard features, ensuring a premium driving experience.

For decades, Porsche had contemplated a four-door sedan before finally unveiling the initial photos of the Panamera on November 24, 2008. The first-generation Panamera revolutionized performance in its class, setting new standards for executive four-doors on twisty roads, despite mixed reactions to its design. The Panamera's development followed the immense success of Porsche's Cayenne SUV, convincing the company that a sedan would complement its existing lineup. Sales results indicate that Porsche's decision was spot on.
