Worldwide Debut in Spring 2009 ATLANTA

PORSCHE PRESENTS FIRST PHOTOS OF THE

PANAMERA GRAN TURISMO

Three-quarters of a year prior to market launch, Porsche has released the first official photos the new Panamera. Porsche’s unique four-seater was conceived and designed as a four-door grand touring sports car, combining numerous talents in typical Porsche style: sporting driving dynamics, a spacious interior, and the supreme comfort of a Gran Turismo. Joining the 911, Boxster and Cayman sports cars as well as the Cayenne SUV, the Panamera is Porsche’s fourth model series.

The Panamera designers have succeeded in positioning it as a brand-new and truly different model while retaining the looks of a typical Porsche. Through its proportions, the Panamera stands out in its market segment: measuring 76 inches wide and 55.8 inches in height, it is wider and lower than comparable four-door models. The unmistakable GT silhouette is created by the car’s overall length of 196 inches and short, sporting overhangs. In its styling and details, the Panamera follows the design philosophy refined over decades on the 911 and successfully implemented on the Boxster, Cayman and Cayenne. Pure Porsche DNA and comfort for four.

Through its design language, the Panamera establishes a new segment. The symbiosis of sports car DNA derived from the looks of a coupe, the unique interpretation of the classical saloon body and the benefits of a variable space concept give the new Porsche a truly unmistakable appearance.Striking wheel arches and the long and sleek engine compartment, with the distinctly contoured wings flanking the flat front lid, create the typical 911 “landscape” Porsche customers have appreciated for over 45 years. V-shaped seams along the hood and a rear window that tapers like an arrow to the rear also are characteristic of a sports car. Muscular shoulders over the rear wheels, the sweep of the coupe-like roofline and visible tailpipes again bear the thoroughbred Porsche DNA. An elegant roof arch extends over the generous interior.

Thanks to the unique and sporting architecture of the interior, the car’s occupants are able to experience a cockpit-like atmosphere from all four seats. All occupants enjoy supreme comfort in both the front seats and the two contoured rear seats. The luggage compartment easily takes all passengers’ luggage; the Panamera’s variable space concept with folding rear backrests enables driver and passengers to adjust the luggage space to individual requirements. Finally, the coupe tailgate in the sporting rear end combines everyday usability with stylish elegance. Panamera built in Leipzig; powerful engines hail from Zuffenhausen Porsche has developed powerful and up-to-date engines for the Panamera, reflecting the qualities typical of the brand; the V-engines come with six and eight cylinders and output ranges from 300 to 500 horsepower. Some engines use turbocharging technology and Direct Fuel Injection, making them both fuel-efficient and very powerful. Power flows to the wheels through either a manual six- speed gearbox or Porsche’s seven-speed PDK Doppelkupplungsgetriebe, or Double-Clutch Gearbox.

In addition to rear-wheel drive, the top version of the Panamera comes with even more sophisticated all-wheel drive, available on other models as an option. Porsche also is preparing a fuel-efficient version of the Panamera with hybrid drive. Further details on engines, transmissions, performance, prices and equipment will be disclosed next spring.

The Porsche Panamera will be built at Porsche’s Leipzig plant, where a 237,000-square-foot production hall and a logistics center currently are under construction. While the Panamera engines are built at Porsche’s main plant in Zuffenhausen, painted bodyshells will be supplied by Volkswagen’s Hanover plant. The Leipzig plant will then assemble the Panamera for final delivery, with an annual sales target of about 20,000 units. Porsche is once again cooperating with German suppliers, with some 70 percent of the car’s components being created in Germany.

The Panamera will make its world debut in spring 2009 and the first models will be at U.S dealers in the fall of next year. Porsche Cars North America, Inc. (PCNA) is based in Atlanta, Ga., is the exclusive importer of Porsche sports cars and sport utility vehicles for the United States. It is a wholly owned, indirect subsidiary of Dr. Ing. h.c. F.

Here are pictures of the Cayenne hybrid system:

UPDATE:

Chris Wall, manager of automotive and product information at Porsche, tells us the Panamera hybrid will share the parallel gas-electric drivetrain planned for the Cayenne and Porsche is committed to incorporating the technology into its lineup.

"It's definitely part of our overall plan," he says.

More info and diagrams of the Panamera and Cayenne hybrid systems after the jump.

Porsche and Volkswagen worked together to develop the parallel hybrid system, which VW reportedly is planning to offer in the Touareg as soon as next year. Wall said it will provide 30 percent better fuel economy than the gas-only versions of the Cayenne and Panamera.

"We've reached that goal," he says of the fuel efficiency improvements. Porsche's engineers found that the hybrid system also brought gains in acceleration and torque, but Wall could not provide specifics. The system uses nickel metal hydride batteries; Porsche is investigating other options, Wall says, "but the technology just isn't there yet."

Wall says the Panamera and Cayenne hybrids will feature 3.6 liter V-6 engines producing 290 horsepower and a 38 kilowatt electric motor (not the 34 kilowatts we reported earlier). The engine, electric motor and transmission are controlled by what Porsche calls Hybrid Manager, a system that monitors 20,000 data parameters for optimal power and efficiency.

To further improve fuel economy, the Cayenne hybrid uses electrical power steering, air conditioning and brake vacuum pumps instead of engine-driven components and the six-speed automatic transmission features an electric oil pump. Porsche expects the Cayenne hybrid to deliver 24 mpg and hopes to improve that to 26 mpg.

Wall says Porsche "definitely" plans to produce the Cayenne hybrid by 2010. There's no word on when the Panamera hybrid might appear, and Porsche's been tight-lipped about the Panamera in general since announcing it more than two years ago - so much so that the sketch we've included is the only official rendering of the car Porsche has released.

Porsche is serious about hybrids, Wall says, telling us, "It's a technology that can go hand in hand with Porsche performance. You can have, with this parallel system, savings in city and highway fuel consumption and increases in performance."

So does that mean we'll see hybrid versions of the Boxster, Cayman and 911?

"It's possible, yes," Wall says. "I don't think the technology is there right now, but in the future... Our engineers are always looking to see what technology is available, and in a lot of cases, what technology they can create."
