2025 Porsche Panamera Turbo Review: A 680HP Aston Martin Killer?

If you were an actual spy, would you drive an Aston Martin or a Porsche Panamera?

No estate version? That was The best One 😢😢😢

[@ReeceCentre]

It's an oversized 4 door VW bettle

[@joefx69]

I’m genuinely gutted. I loved that version. At least I can keep my kidneys now I suppose

[@wentworthharris3120]

I agree 100%

[@dnlmch]

Estate is the best one? Apparently sales figures told a different story.

[@R03333]

Right? Estate should be the default

[@philedwards7174]

The rear tailgate is intended to work when you approach the locked vehicle. It's intended to assist you if your hands are full of shopping bags etc. If you've already opened the car it won't open if you kick the bumper. Give it a try. Fab car. Fab video once again.

[@PEACEOUTXX1]

This thing sounds amazing

[@ibrahimmoss]

Rory is a most brilliant presenter. And, if James Bond is listening, I hope he selects a Panamera with a gun metal gray exterior, and Black interior :)

Another next level review. Love the Porsche Panamera Turbo 2025. I'm a photographer for my local Porsche Club and aspire to drive/own one some day.

[@michaelwang9053]

"That is a classic James Bond"🤣--- Best commentary ever

[@vindevhunta4905]

A good looking car.. The prices for vehicles these days are insane

[@hummerchine]

I was going to ask what color that is, glad that you said! I LOVE IT!

[@richardlabeja]

Pierce Brosnan's Bond drove BMW Z3, Z8 and 7 Series.

[@ShadowRaptor8]

Dream car is still the Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Sport Turismo. The list of reasons it's amazing is as long as its name.

[@mra9085]

This over an M5 any day - more exclusive and better looking. Plus, Porsches over £100k hold their value a lot better than other brands, which lose about a 1/3 immediately.

[@peterhammer6915]

Panamera's values drop like stone lately. This will not be different.

[@osmiumtank]

This car loses value more than any other in this luxury segment. What are you talking about?

[@tacodias]

More exclusive?! I see 20 panameras per day and a M5 per month

Your reviews are the best and could not wait to see the Panamera one.

[@BugattiONE666]

I think calling any Porsche an Aston killer is a bit wrong... Porsche have ALLWAYS made the better car, but , put it this way: Noone "likes" Aston, they ADORE them, and how good the car is never really comes into it, they're just beyond anything else. Brain says Porsche, Heart says Aston, and the heart isn't so easily swained....

[@Spenny909]

If driving feel is important, Porsche wins both heart and mind.

[@Nickbaldeagle02]

ALWAYS

[@long_view]

Thank you. Except that the previous Panamera saloon (hatchback?) had a rear wiper as an option. However, fair point about the rear camera.

[@flaminggodofthunder]

12:32 that was a cool shot

[@mys0076]

Love the Liverpool mention lol💪😂

[@decepticonstinger3150]

This is the best review i have seen

[@adamsassi6636]

Great review - cheeky. Not too far removed from a young Jeremy Clarkson. Keep up the great work!

[@NigelLaBorde-n6l]

Love your stuff Rory keep it up, joking about the leaf by the way!🤣🤣

[@long_view]

Great review as usual, Rory. However, why no rear wiper option? I think an owner would be very nervous reversing out of a parking bay in the rain.

[@AutoTraderTV]

Saloons tend not to have wipers. That funky rear camera is pretty helpful 🤔

[@Nickbaldeagle02]

Reverse in, drive out.

[@paulhancock]

I wish the styling was a bit more aggressive on the Turbo model. It doesn't look special enough to justify the price IMO, but it's got that cool Q-car vibe. Side note - If we're really talking about an Aston Martin killer... I always wanted Porsche to make a two-door coupe on the Panamera/Bentley Conti/RS7 platform; Way more aggressive, sexy, sporty, wide-body styling with more luxury, space and practicality than the 911... Like a new 948 I guess? I think the Porsche range needs that car to complete it and fill that gap for folks who need a bigger car than a 911, but don't want an 'understated family car' with 4 doors. Obviously they won't make it because it would cannibalise 911 sales (possibly even Bentley Conti sales) and big coupes don't sell like they used to, but it would be my perfect car!

[@stillsearching1284]

They could make a two door Panamera and call it a 928. It could have even more powerful engines/batteries than the 911 bc it would be more of a grand tourer than a sports car.

[@mrmorrisniceguy987]

I understand but also disagree (not with the 2 door version though, I like that) Porsche, for the most part has always been a understated brand except for the GT Models. I for my part prefer it for a daily drive because it is so under the radar, nobody would ever expect this thing to go 300kp/h+ und the Autobahn.

[@TitaniumDR1]

Best car in the world for the money

[@Whiters8]

At last, a true rival to the Citroen Xantia Activa. Can't wait for the group test. 😉

[@leotac5737]

What a spec! Stunning

[@urbanstrencan]

Porsche Panamera is such an underrated super saloon, my choice over E class, 5 series, or Audi A6. Too bad they cancelled estate version but still love the update they did. And this spec with green and bronze wheels is just perfection ❤❤❤. Rory great video keep it up 🤟🤟😍

[@MaureenVolkwyn]

To be fair and honest, the 'estate' version wasn't really comparable to an E-class wagon or Audi A6 Avant. Gran Turismo was the correct nomenclature and it was my favourite Panamera shape.

[@ekeluo]

This... This was a notch above!!! ✨✨✨

[@PDW76]

Great colour Oak green shame Volkwagen don’t do it anymore Golf GTI big bumper 16v was a thing of beauty in Oak green

[@Nemoticon]

The Porsche is technically better in every way, no argument whatsoever. But I don't desire one. I do however desire an Aston. IF they made a 2dr Coupe of the Panamera as a spiritual successor to the 928, I may change that opinion!

[@patrickh1506]

Can you please test the Panamera GTS. Many Thanks

[@thesacvroom]

The sports tourismo was the best looking panamera.. and one of the best looking Porsches… it’s a shame it is discontinued

[@darbythornton9471]

I'd have to lease and walk away. Lots of potential repairs. Great job Rory

[@MauriceBln1]

Awesome Porsche, looks great!

[@wookie94]

I think porsche lost their minds when they chose not to do a Sport Turismo of this gen, it was the one to have, not the coupe!!

Sadly. they know too few people would buy it, as they did the previous version

[@worldwide1873]

Would you rather the hybrid or gts version with the engine tuned to 750+hp

[@TheYBGOON]

If you look on autotrader at all used Porsches from 2020 and newer you’ll find that the cheapest cars are diesel macans and the taycan. A 4 year old panamera vs a 4 year old taycan. Which would you choose.

[@clubsobri]

The Panamera is alwasy cool. Comfort and performance. But looks-wise, I like the A7 (I have one) and the Taycan (specially the touring) better. But it is a cool car.

[@forcesensitive6371]

Better looking than it used to be. But Bond should stick with the Aston.

[@fastexperiencecars]

He said: “I also like these headlights, as well.” 🤦🏻‍♂️ Perfect example of “as well” getting out of control.

[@gglasser8375]

It's so stealthy, the car washer missed about half of it!

[@AntoniusTyas]

Actually it's not THE original Oak Green Metallic. This is Oak Green Metallic Neo, original Oak Green Metallic is a little lighter and a little bit more yellow.

[@alexprost7505]

only 4s, gts and gt(i think they build her) deserve attention now, and base4)

[@ChocDelight12]

Downsides is it’s too quiet and expensive repairs? It’s a Panamera not a 911. And those who can afford this are absolutely not worried about that. Not to mention warranty.

[@philipc239]

Money no object? Might as well get a Bently instead.
