2018 Porsche Panamera 4S Sedan 4D

The?2018 Porsche Panamera 4S Sedan 4D?stands as an exceptionally fast, highly sophisticated benchmark in the executive luxury sports saloon segment, representing the second production year of the model’s acclaimed second-generation (971) platform. Built on the advanced MSB (Modulare Standardantriebs-Baukasten) aluminum and high-strength steel hybrid architecture, this sleek four-door sports sedan completely shuns generic luxury commuter traits, combining pure sports car dynamics, twin-turbo V8-rivaling acceleration, and whisper-quiet high-speed highway composure. Under the sculpted aluminum hood sits a direct-injected?2.9-liter Twin-Turbocharged DOHC 24-valve V6 engine, developed jointly by Porsche and Audi. Positioned in the ’hot V’ configuration for instantaneous throttle response, this high-revving power unit hammers out a potent?440 horsepower?at 5,650 RPM and a massive?405 lb-ft of torqueavailable across a wide powerband from 1,750 to 5,500 RPM. Power is managed by Porsche’s ultra-fast?8-speed PDK (Porsche Doppelkupplung) dual-clutch automatic transmission, routing torque to all four wheels via standard? Porsche Traction Management (PTM) active all-wheel drive. Riding on a performance-tuned chassis featuring standard steel-spring suspension with Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM)?or available three-chamber adaptive air suspension?the Panamera 4S launches from?0 to 60 MPH in just 4.2 seconds?(4.0 seconds with the optional Sport Chrono Package) on its way to a top track speed of?179 MPH. On the exterior, the 2018 Panamera 4S executes a sweeping, iconic 911-inspired flyline design defined by its low-slung stance, signature four-point LED daytime running light matrix, active front cooling air flaps, and a continuous rear LED light strip spanning the tail. Functional aerodynamic features include power-folding auto-dimming heated side mirrors, deep-tinted rear sun-screening privacy glass, dual twin-tube stainless steel round tailpipes, an adaptive two-way extending rear spoiler that deploys automatically at high speeds, and a commanding stance rolling proudly on?19-inch Panamera S aluminum alloy wheels?(or available 20-inch/21-inch Porsche Design alloy wheels) wrapped in staggered performance tires. Inside, the driver-centric cockpit welcomes up to four occupants into an opulent luxury sanctuary centered around the Porsche Advanced Cockpit layout with touch-sensitive direct touch control center console interfaces. Seating is draped in premium?partial leather upholstery?(or available full leather), featuring 8-way power-adjustable comfort front seats with driver memory (or optional 14-way/18-way adaptive sport seats), a leather-wrapped multifunction sport steering wheel with shift paddles,? Two-Zone Automatic Climate Control?(or available Four-Zone), keyless engine start, and a panoramic sunroof. Technologically advanced digital controls feature a classic central analog tachometer flanked by twin 7-inch high-resolution instrument displays, paired with a central?12.3-inch Full HD touchscreen display screendriven by Porsche Communication Management (PCM) with online navigation. Modern digital connectivity includes wireless Apple CarPlay?, SiriusXM? satellite radio, dual fast-charging USB ports in the front and rear, Porsche Connect services, and a crisp 10-speaker sound system (or available Bose? Surround Sound / Burmester? High-End 3D Surround Sound System). Practicality and space utilization match its top-tier executive touring profile thanks to its extended 116.1-inch wheelbase and functional hatchback rear design. Rear occupants enjoy two individual, deeply contoured sports bucket seats with generous legroom and headroom. Opening the power liftgate reveals?17.4 cubic feet of flat cargo trunk space?behind the second row. Utilizing the quick-release seatback controls to collapse the 60/40 split rear bench seatbacks completely flat into the floor expands total interior utility capacity to a spacious?46.0 cubic feet of total flat cargo volume, providing ample room for luggage sets, camera gear packages, or daily business inventory. Backed by a substantial 23.7-gallon fuel tank to support long-distance grand touring ranges, this twin-turbo 2.9L V6 powertrain achieves an EPA-estimated?21 MPG city and 28 MPG highway. Safety is world-class, utilizing an ultra-high-strength steel passenger safety cell engineered with energy-absorbing front and rear structural crumple zones. The vehicle comes factory-equipped with a robust active safety net, including Porsche Stability Management (PSM), Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with 6-piston front / 4-piston rear monobloc aluminum fixed calipers, front and rear ParkAssist with a high-resolution Rearview Camera, a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS), available InnoDrive adaptive cruise control with Traffic Jam Assist, Night Vision Assist, Lane Keep Assist, and an advanced multi-stage?10-airbag protection canopy network?featuring dual front airbags, front and rear seat-mounted side airbags, full-length side curtain airbags, and knee airbags for both driver and front passenger to guarantee absolute driving peace of mind across all conditions.
