2016 Porsche Panamera review: on the road in new Stuttgart 'Bahn-stormer

[@d0718]

It's like Autoexpress are struggling to find a reviewer, every month there is a new guy. But this reviewer is really good keep him :)

[@d0718]

+James Batchelor ah ok makes sense! Thanks James

[@andreikokot8927]

this reviewer is really weak, know nothing about cars, will not see other reviews with him anymore

[@c3vzn]

+James Batchelor How's the Ssangyong "best car in the world" Tivoli treating you?

[@d0718]

That interior is spot on

[@VaunShiz]

Why does he sit like that, his face is almost in the steering wheel

[@MrJannnnnnnnnni]

Because this is how you sit if you want to race...

[@OriginalBernieBro]

He's an amputee, has no legs.

[@donjohn2239]

+Jan Niklas Brill dont see no nascar or rally or f1 drivers sitting like that. What racing do you see?

[@itsmeprad]

It makes the car more aerodynamic. I'm serious! lol

[@massiveglove2960]

+Don john Learn to race any non F car and you will be taught to sit like that

[@yahyoh91]

why the hell he's so close to the steering wheel ? im sure the steering wheel wont run away from him -_-

[@VaunShiz]

Lmao so true

[@nelarystargaryenthefirst]

because he's short lol

[@JasonBryantGreen]

Anyone else scroll to comments to see if anyone else thought this same thing?

[@takayashiyohoho4384]

his chest is almost touching the steering wheel.

[@massiveglove2960]

That's actually the way you're taught when doing your racing license

[@chillipompom5263]

Watching you driving that near to the steering wheel makes it hard for me to breathe Relax man,thats a sports car not a bus. any way , that was a wonderful review

[@mattyoz0]

you have no idea.

[@vivalaphill]

yeah stop talking about others driving position if you don't know anything about it

[@VaunShiz]

Hahaha I thought I was going to be alone, it bugged the hell out of me the whole video

[@VaunShiz]

+vivalaphill that doesn't even make any sense, go home

[@manuyarra]

my thoughts

[@samakshuppal]

The interior is far better than that of the Mercedes Cls! The exterior is brilliant too. The way the active spoiler comes out and goes back in is exquisite! This car is good.

[@dashaunwoody4612]

First time seeing this guy review; and he did good job. Let's see if he has some driving skills along with it.

[@nodad8763]

Looks so much better than the old one.

[@gisenberg]

Where was this filmed? The location is stunning! Caught myself looking at the view instead of the car at times :)

[@marcels4170]

Tegernsee, Bavaria :D the most beautiful place in Germany xD

[@adiththomas4045]

Great reviewer, all the statements were very eloquently put. Also, that active wing is pretty cool

[@9xtilxi]

Very nice review. I like this guy.

[@mojojojo911]

WOW Amazing!!! Anyone know the background music?

[@sawantrohan]

Its so damn good. Someone please tell us.

[@LotosHans]

did anyone find it?

[@mojojojo911]

No... :( I even emailed some dude at Auto Express lol

[@slaWterCH]

Analog rev counter, digital everything else. Proper stuff! Thanks Porsche! Since the non-GT sportscars are now turbo charged, I think this is the best Porsche on sale.

[@Awayze]

How is that a comfortable driving position, man, too close

[@tokekkk]

0:14 one of the reason to buy Turbo version

[@artemanize9768]

true

[@KwabenaAsamoah]

so true... but I'd be happy with any of them at this point 😂

[@tokekkk]

Soham Chak different mechanism, the 4s just slide right up, the Turbos are split into half and middle parts comes up.

[@darrenloke5486]

definitely a keeper. Good to see AutoExpress finally moving on it's feet again.

[@Trithij]

OMG! It takes a special kind of an idiot to buy Tesla instead of this beauty!

[@RichardJoashTan]

Those who buy Tesla are IDIOTS!

[@alvarojm11]

I love Teslas, my favourite car is an RS6 Performance and If i had the money I would definetly buy a Model S P100D. People that buy Teslas want an electric car with a lot of range, lots of power (fastest production sedan on earth in 0-60), lots of space and luxury. The ones that buy cars like this Panamera are the ones that do not give a s*** about the mpg their car is doing, they only want a great cruiser with lots of power and very luxurious.

[@byNice5]

+alvarojm11 I love tesla too but when it was time to buy one my dad refrained from doing so because everyone knows about the depreciation of their vehicles are horrendous

[@rocketn8]

So just to clarify. You think this car is pretty and Teslas are ugly?

[@alvarojm11]

byNice If you just think about that you can't buy any car because you don't know how the market is going to be in the future

[@NowIknowCh]

Why u so close to steering wheel

[@Account13283]

Someone needs to make a video of that spoiler moving up and down on replay for 10 hours that's how satisfying it is

[@charithfernando3942]

i love this colour. what do you call this particular colour?

[@peter5500]

Porsche finally got the rear spot on. The active wing just adds to the muscular stance of the car. Good review. It does now look like a 4-dooe 911. The interior is such a step up. I wish BMW took notes on how to do luxury interiors. I mean the 7 series was a step up in technology but it's design still far apart from the S class which has so much attention to detail. This Porsche does the same. . no need for gesture nonsense ... just clean and functional stuff!

[@gentleman279]

What about location for this footage?Thank you in advance...

[@bobbelcher678]

When will they release the shooting brake version?

[@adithemotorbikeman]

i'd say in the next year or 2

[@MrMlbfan6]

This is the same as the 2012 concept

[@huangluning]

may I ask what's the title of the music played at the background? thx

[@chowychow]

It definitely looks better then the old model!

[@hairocancun]

this 4.0 V8 is the same in the Audi RS7 ??

[@do51lab97]

That car looks totally incredible

[@adamperry3862]

Where are the roads you are driving on

[@kagolko]

If I wanted a Panamera I would def go for the new diesel model. Don't kill me guys, but the range that this engine allowes. Holly shit. And the performance is not exactly bad either lol

[@rjacksonorr]

the diesels the v8 without the electric bits from the Q7 so what's not to like 😂

[@GoCotton]

What about the cancer though?

[@GStone-rs3ru]

I'm a Pisces, it's a compatible sign. Not sure about Cancer.

[@tangchiprathomo819]

A brilliant car, no question about it. However the perfect length of this car should be around 4.8 - 4.9 meters

[@nenecubas]

why is the seat all the way forward?

[@billystutz55]

Completely different rear end but not much has changed?

[@moneykm10]

why is he so close to the steering wheel!!?

[@hyylo]

will there be a fully electric version of this?

[@zenmarkdev1231]

hyylo No, but check out the Porsche Mission E

[@hyylo]

mission E is a nice looking car but it will be 2 years before it comes out. looks like a concept only.

[@visualrendering]

Is there a tall guy seated behind you?

[@Monificent]

Amazing review. I want this car now

[@PedroFTeixeira]

I hated the looks of the 1st gen, but this one looks pretty decent! And yeah, the seating position looks like you don't know how to adjust the seat and got in and drove it as it was.

[@johnlu9368]

is it faster than e63s 2018?

[@SoccerBoi500]

Wow Porsche really cleaned the Panamera up quite a bit! What a handsome car

[@appelpower1]

Whereas I found the previous one gopping to look at, I have to admit this one is very good-looking. Plus, that spoiler is one of the coolest things I have ever seen. I'd actually consider one of these, if I were lucky enough to be in that position.

[@ramsimon8045]

it makes me a bit uncomfortable how close you sit to steering wheel. When I drive my right hand barely reaches to the edge of the steering wheel and I sit all the way back in my sit as long as I'm be able to tap the gas and brake paddles with my right foot, isn't comfort after all is being able to drive the car in relax ?

[@dopjp-990]

whats the soundtrack in the beginning?

[@mazin2892]

where was this filmed?

[@iriniiasonidou1290]

would you buy an bmw m6 gran coupe over this one?

[@Gunni-kj7cn]

In my opinion I would take a S65 AMG Coupe

[@evoemperor3776]

Not even competing with panamera.

[@RichardJoashTan]

In my HUMBLE opinion I would take a fully-loaded Panamera Turbo!

[@griphy]

In my opinion, I would rather have an F16 fighter jet but it's just my opinion

[@evoemperor3776]

griphy lol hahaha

[@sq33ny]

+griphy I share this opinion

[@TheUrbanEpicure]

Best car in the world? In any case, if I had to choose one car to do it all - this would be it. Now, what are those leasing rates like again?

[@InSaN3ViSioN]

Tesla Model S is the greatest car ever made.

[@prokopius1994]

I always considered audi rs7 as the best overall car in the world but now with this new panamera, I really don't know which I'd choose

[@JeanV1986]

@Mr Cars Lol

[@ilibertywalkedmybaconct4445]

bro the rs7 hasnt got massging heated and cooled seats and well thats it 😂😂😂 but i think this is better i think this is the best car ever

[@mikeb1255]

Can we go through one review without negative comments about the reviewer, just make suggestions for improvement. It's all about the car thanks for the video and all the motivation. Autoexpress one of the best out there..I know youtube is the new tv but i appreciate the rawness of these new videos.. Do we think that the new RS7 or S8 will benefit from this new design, will it be the more economical choice time will tell

[@zachary811]

Interior?!

[@MasterCarsReview]

Hey man! First just wanted to say big fan of your work! And, I also did a review of this, actually the Turbo and 4S. So i was wondering if you could give me your opinion on my review! Thanks mate :)

[@jyotiradityasarangi8689]

Does it have a convertible version?

[@MichaelBowiehaha]

No

[@jyotiradityasarangi8689]

+Michael Bowie why convertible should be there

[@MichaelBowiehaha]

+jyotiraditya sarangi because it's a four door dumbass. It would look aweful.

[@jyotiradityasarangi8689]

+Michael Bowie bitch have you seen the BMW M6 no na then fuck off

[@Freimopp777]

+jyotiraditya sarangi lol fail

[@Memories-_]

Touch sensitive buttons low down on the centre console would be so annoying

[@TodunOlusola]

much better looking than the previous gen

[@Silverwarhawk]

Previous gen Panamera had potential buyers thinking like : I need a Porsche, 4-door Porsche i'll go check out that Panamera. Fuck, i'll settle with the 911, it has 4 seats just like the Panamera. Current gen Panamera have potential 911 buyers thinking like : I need a Porsche, a sporty coupe *sees Panamera* Actually i'm here looking for a big 4 door gran tourer

[@CRiStiCole]

song at the end?:) thanks!

[@iFilmSuperCars]

Excellent review mate :)

[@nauxgnol]

please does any1 know the BGM? =)

[@abhishekjadhav8814]

audi rs6 a better choice?

[@WaylonCarruthers]

any day of the week.

[@MadAlbo]

Naaah, rs7, m6 and cls63 are proper competitors of the panamera

[@marcofava]

Maserati quattroporte

[@dieseldoesthings527]

If you want a badass looking family car to go fast in, yes, but its not even close to giving tou that luxurious feel when behind the wheel. Just a matter of taste really. And the tech in the rs6 is really outdated compared to this.

[@888TopGear888]

PLEAAASE dont compare that piece of shit quattroporte to the Panamera

[@DRAKO9764]

How can you drive like that? You're way too close to the steering wheel

[@quanronghu4900]

Those LEDs at the bottom don't make sense,

[@sbomorse]

You should be able to say Porsche correctly as a motoring journalist.

[@TheKartoffel101]

Finaly a guy who can pronounce Porsche correctly...

[@jamieradley9930]

360,000 subs- and they let this guy represent the channel?

[@devilgames2217]

it's just.....beautiful and that interior 😍🔥

[@lolman77]

By being so close to the steering wheel, an impact, and he dies by suffocation because of the airbag the steering is also too high... gosh...

[@TheAlphalimamike]

What a great car, my next one definitly.

[@alexloften7825]

Back away abit from the steering wheel, much safer if you crash, and also, lower the steering wheel abit, was to high up for you, if you want to sit correctly

[@golferchin76]

why did you mention M5. It can't even compare.

[@hmm2928]

waiting for the new panamera and the new m6 , seeing how they compare with 2017 e63 amg :) . IMO i would pick the c63

[@afaroo90]

Song?!

[@jupitersamjk]

Great review auto express!

[@antonoat]

Do you really want the airbag to explode your face in the case of an accident? Move the seat back into a more relaxed and efficient position! cheers

[@malcolmc5964]

Nice video but we never saw the car side on or even the boot, big four seater for touring!, need to see the boot. Other than a brief glimpse of the rear seats, which looked spacious but we had no reference,this could just as well be a 911. If its a review then review it!, not all about driving, especially for Auto Express!

[@MonteiroM]

The "Normal" and S goes engine downsize and the Turbo model engine goes bigger :O

[@ilibertywalkedmybaconct4445]

Monteiro nope smaller

[@chrissorreda4982]

My god they made a new PDK? Nice!

[@vsboy25]

this car is impeccably made.

[@TheAndrew011]

The new Panamera looks beautiful,the old one wasn't ugly per se, not in my opinion anyway. It was always best in it's class really.

[@maxblack7197]

that interior is fucking amazing

[@OkulSmoK]

I absolutely love the new Panamera to bits, BUT what were engineers in Porsche thinking when they made the airvents electrically operated? Nice to show off, but utterly stupid to live with. Other than that it seems like pure perfection.

[@andreas.abrahamsson]

What a great review!

[@ВикторШишков]

Do we have to be confined in time so that the reviewer talks that quickly? I had to pause and rewind over 20 times to see pieces that were briefly shown or hear-to-understand like the bhp number and stuff. I know I am not a native speaker but I hardly have this problem with better-paced reviews out there. And this is the Internet where clip time makes no difference

[@cornelcon5267]

Beautiful car, beautiful interior.. i go to play at Loto 😒

[@thorne1517]

great review! great car definitely going to put the pressure on the new m5

[@tan9640]

This looks beautiful

[@johna8999]

That's proper wicked!

[@Mr2pint]

This for luxury in its price bracket for sure...

[@ddbhaha1529]

Is this new Audi???

[@ilibertywalkedmybaconct4445]

IamNOTyourFather nope!

[@jlo6388]

What I worry about new Porsches: they have so much electric trick that how will they hold up after 5 or ten years? What happens when that rear steering servo fails? Etc.

[@dimitrisribery]

what do you mean??

[@jlo6388]

I have a 987.1, and a 996tt. Engines will last forever. The plastic gizmos break (ignition switch), what will happen to all the plastic gizmos that control the front air dam, rear steering, front axle lift, etc. Those parts will fail after years and the cost of maintenance will skyrocket compared to even the 997s.

[@rayaanshaikh5830]

The guys head is almost touching the steering wheel. God they need some proper reviewers!

[@gurdevbhogal7744]

Anyone else think this guys driving position is not right. I found it a difficult watch

[@jamieradley9930]

why would u employ a guy with a voice as boring as that, for online car reviews?

[@jakub5520]

0:14 - this is just beautiful :-)

[@turquoisecat761]

That moment when the first voice you hear is not Steve Sutcliffe's

[@nevzatdudush8187]

The comments about his way of sitting 😂😂😂😂

[@vivalaphill]

nice RS7 with a PDK

[@nadinenickel1380]

best looking sedan. Porsche build the best cars

[@cp3190]

This car is beautiful. As an aspiring Rapper I'm totally gonna get this and pimp it out. Also I need all those extra seats for the ladies. :)

[@astenmorganjr3585]

LOL!

[@InSaN3ViSioN]

Tesla Model S is better and has 7 seats

[@nodad8763]

+Mr Cars You know the two extra seats are a joke, you wouldn't really want to put a person on it, it's technically a moulded piece of plastic with seat belts. Just get a model x if you want more than 5 seats in a EV.

[@muscleeveryday]

thumbnail had me thinking, hey dodge made a new car

[@theniceones1613]

Good god he is close to the steering wheel

[@997speedy]

quality review tbf

[@Rick2010100]

Always that complaning about prices at Porsche - a Porsche is always a full sportscar and if you don´t have the money to buy one, buy a Mazda, Toyota, etc. but stop lamenting on the prices. Apple has also high prices but never here there journalists lamenting on the prices.
