2014 Porsche Panamera Gets Reviewed

By Manuel Carrillo III - October 8, 2013

For the 2014 model year, the Porsche Panamera gets a few tweaks. A twin-turbo V6 powers the Panamera S, the GTS’s V8 gets a little more oomph, and 2014 is the debut model year for the Panamera plug-in hybrid that can go 20 miles in electric-only mode.

In this video, though, we’ll be dealing with the Porsche Panamera Turbo, which gets bumped to 520 horsepower this year.

The Panamera Turbo starts at $141,300. The car Matt Farah reviews in the video is $194,685, which means $53,385 of that price is in options. What’s the most you’d spend on options before going into cardiac arrest?

Fun fact: an unnamed source told Farah that PDK’s launch control system is designed to handle 3,000 launches. Hot damn.
