Compared to the first Panamera, the 2017 Panamera is 1.3-inches longer, 0.2-inches wider and 0.2-inches taller. Although it is slightly taller, the 2017 Panamera appears lower, since the height above the rear passengers has been reduced by 20 mm.
When the new Panamera arrives in January, it will be offered in the Panamera 4S and Panamera Turbo trims. The Panamera 4S starts at $100,950, while pricing for the Panamera Turbo will start at $147,950.
The Panamera 4S is powered by a 2.9L twin-turbocharged V6 that generates 440 horsepower, 20 more than the previous model and 405 lb-ft. of torque. The Panamera 4S weighs in at 4,123 pounds and can reach 60 mph in 4.2 seconds (4.0 seconds with the Sport Chrono Package), and has a top track speed of 180 mph.
