Found one with 38k on the odometer for 40k as of this posting... not too bad.

The EPA tests give better results for plugins. They rate this Porsche hybrid at 16 miles pure electric range (versus ~40 for Volt). In gasoline mode the car gets 29 MPG on the highway..... that's worse than many V6 cars .

Last week, a Honda dealer in Winter Haven offered a 2014 Panamera E-Hybrid for $32,000 (57,xxx miles) I was interested until 2 Porsche dealers' service depts. said battery replacement is $28,000. Batteries often need replacement at 8 to 10 years. I told sales that if they deed car over to me, I would remove it from their lot, same day. Haven't called me back! They had taken it in trade to sell a used Tesla. If a Panamera E-Hybrid would run without a high voltage battery I would have bought it. Let's Roll! Wolf

It's so crazy it's almost the same price as the Taycan!

9.3 isn't a lot of MPG 30 or so, but the torque is there to move the Beast along Canada's Highways. $120K I don't think the Wife would let me even though she is 110% for Green Technology. Prius C anyone :'( ?

Panamera's are ugly. Porsche needs to re-design this already.

never go full mustang bro

[@seinsmeld13]

No thanks Porsche. I'll drive my S4 and pay for the gas. Too soon for these costly vehicles. Nice review Zack.

[@courtneyvegan9448]

What a joke, no quick charger for that price? What a joke. 20 km for that price,or 400 km for a tesla model s. The choice is clear.

[@Gamez4eveR]

+court bowes ...This isn't a battery car, dipshit.

[@courtneyvegan9448]

It's a plug in hybrid. I just want a fast charger for such a expensive car.

[@Gamez4eveR]
