EXTREME (In)Efficiency | Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid | Test Drive

[@KrustyCream]

I can't imagine having that much HP, an empty autobahn, and not making the pedal touch the floor mat. Props Misha!! 👏👏👏

[@JoeAchilles1]

Really interesting video mate!

[@rajjy1976]

Cheers mate

[@ksochacki]

4:22 fuel tank is kept under negative pressure so the fuel shelf life is higher in case you drive a lot in electric only mode. Thats why sometimes you have to wait until pressure equalizes and the fuel cap opens.

[@lswrpsahp8985]

so cool

[@kikyoass]

Thanks for the tip

[@olfranca]

Amazed by how in 130km/h feels like you're stoped intl the midle of the road, as here in Brazil ir you drive this speed feels like you're speed of light comparing ta other cars

[@piciu256]

Camera makes the speed look lower too. I cannot imagine zooming past a truck @90kph in the next lane when going 300+, it feels ridiculously fast when going 170 already :P

[@JamalPennant]

really like the editing and presentation your doing here misha 👍

[@hunterprey5338]

I drive myself a panamera 4s diesel pre facelift. That car can go over 1000 km with a full tank. These high horsepower petrol cars are fun for 1-2 hours but long distance travel is made for powerful diesel engines. I had a bmw 7 g11. That thing went 220 km/h and had like 1900 rpms. But neverless this thing is a beautiful heavy beast. Propps to the quality of the video. There is nothing more beautiful than a empty autobahn and a car like the panamera.

Maybe it isn't allowed but I regularly drive 200+ in the Netherlands. When you know where the police is, it's quite easy. Some simple highway basics and rules and you can speed whatever you like. Just don't do it on the ringroad of Rotterdam or Amsterdam. But the long stretches towards away from the Randstad area, some are even better to speed that the German autobahns. Because of better asphalt quality, better views in long corners (Germany has many times bad views in long curves on autobahns) and also in Netherlands are less long lasting roadworks. That is indeed the disatvantage of Germany. Roadworks take so long.

[@VisualCarReviews]

Such an interesting review, thanks! 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@mgcharoudin]

Thank you!

[@nirfz]

Very interesting! A few years back (2014) i did 634km through Austria and Germany with a 2010 E63 (the non turbo engine). 1/3rd of the distance was in germany and due to traffic 240kph was the max possible speed we reached there, while 130kph is the max allowed limit in Austria. And as a law abiding driver i kept to that. I did the whole distance on one fuel tank. (filled up before the start and at the end) and reached 11,12 L/100km. It was summer, the AC was running, we were 4 adults + luggage in the car and we stopped every 2 hours for a short break. (one of the adults was my 80+ year old Grandma) When looking at the numbers you reached with the Porsche, i am quite pleased with what the, at the time you recorded it, at least 9 years older 6.2 V8 without electric help, and without downsizing and coasting features is able to do. (i still have the car)

4:20 . it takes a few seconds for the gas cap to open because the gas tanks in PHEVs are pressurised and hermetically sealed. a PHEV can drive for months in electric only so the gas tank must trap the vapors that may form.

I purchased the 2022 Porsche Panamera 4 e-Hybrid Sport Turismo (November Delivery) which has only 462HP but with stage 1 ECU tune this can be increased quite easily to 600HP for a cost of about EUR1,200. Will do some test runs later in the year or early next year to see V/max difference pre and post ECU Tune.

[@ffrreeddyy95]

Great video! Nice to see that the 680hp Porsche needs as much fuel at 130 as my Cupra 🥲

[@DanSallis]

This is a very interesting video Misha. It makes sense that the fuel efficiency does not decrease with the same proportion the speed increased which I will explain below if anyone is interested. The first part is that the relationship between fuel efficiency and speed is non-linear mainly due to the non-linearity of the resistive forces with increased speed. These resistive forces in modern day vehicles are typically dominated by air resistance. The formula for air resistance at a given speed is Fd = 0.5*p*(v^2)*Cd*A. In this case (assuming the air density is largely the same between runs) "p", "Cd" and "A" are constant values and can therefore be excluded for this comparison. This means that the drag force (Fd) is directly proportional to the square of the velocity (v). If we put some numbers into this theory, we can show that the linear relationship between 102 km/h and 164 km/h is ~1.61 whereas the relationship of the squares is ~2.59. This means the engine is having to do 2.59 times instead of 1.61 times more work just to overcome the increase in air resistance. Why is this relationship of the squares (2.59) not the same as the relationship of the fuel consumption figures (3.37)? Well, this leads to the second part, the ratios are not the same because combustion engines are designed to be more efficient at certain RPMs, usually cruising RPMs in the region of 2000 to 3500. I am not a chemical or powertrain engineer, so I cannot comment further on specifically how this works or why this range is chosen. However, what it means is that the RPM at 102 km/h is causing the engine to be relatively more efficient than at 164 km/h (made worse by the fact Misha was driving for some parts at 315 km/h with revs higher than 6000 RPM).

[@mikers73]

I started watching Micha to switch off from the current situation. Great no brainer but sensible coverage of the Ring and others. Keep up the great videos, really good work. The measures/conversion in the video are very informative:-) Night driving at 315kph on the Motorway/Interstate/Autobahn/Autoroute etc. is certainly an eye opener!

[@chris7605]

Well...when you can afford a 150k euro car, i'm pretty sure you don't care the gas bills. There are much more efficient cars with diesel engine that can have an average speed very similar to that Porsche. In 2010, i got a Cayenne S for 2 weeks. I kept it most of the time in the garage (20 l/100km). I prefer to have a 911 and a medium diesel car at my disposal.

[@uberseehandel]

As somebody who spent a great deal of time getting up early and driving hard in Germany, the statistic I worked off was minutes per tank. The trick to a high average speed was balancing the time spent in the gas station against the time on the Autobahnen. Last stop was critical, don't overfill, it costs you time.

In Finland we have 120km/h on highways, but on main roads are 80km/h or 100km/h. But best part is that most of country side roads are 80km/h, and they are drivers paradise. Have to say, Panamera has impressed me by fuel consumption.

Very nice and informative video. Thank you Misha! I really like the fact that you did the return trip on sensible 130kmh speed which is very much applicable here in Finland at highways. This allows me to estimate how much such a car would consume and also gives idea how would be the panamera 4 e-hybrid sport turismo perform (I'm considering purchasing one).

[@shanescarlife]

I appreciate your suffering on the way back, Misha. Lol!!!

[@robrogers8760]

Very interesting and informative video. I have taken the liberty of converting your figures for the UK audience as we use the imperial gallon here. Your fast run using 152 litres, or 40.15 US gallons is 33.44 gallons here in the UK. That would equate to a 9.11 MPG. The second run using 45 litres, or 11.89 US gallons is 9.90 imperial gallons here, this would give us 30.5 MPG. The latter figure is very good indeed and makes more sense to anyone using imperial gallons. Sorry for being an anorak.

[@Istee104]

I'd be curious about how the fuel consumption and travel time changes in a high powered diesel, maybe an S6 or an M550d. And hats off for being able to keep the advised speed limit :D

[@jankees4037]

Best is to go in between, to still be quick but save a lot of money. Cruise speed of 180-200 is more douable.

To give a comparison these consumption numbers are exactly the same in my 2017 Fiesta ST between normal road use and track use. The fact that Porsche can make a V8 powered, 700hp, four door, luxury vehicle have the same fuel consumption as my little two door hot hatch is incredible.

[@Scalachi123]

That nite view wicked..sweet ride

[@Soorce1]

I was eager to know what maxing it out in combination with refuelling meant for the bottom line difference in trip time. Logically, one does need to stop once in a while, hence on the ‘normal’ return trip, where no fuel stops were needed, the trip time of 22:33 - 17:32= 5:01 also includes a healthy 12 minutes pitstop, added to the 4:49 driving time. That brings the total trip time difference to 1:43, quite significant! Looking at fuel cost only, one should definitely floor it to achieve the shortest trip time, if a billable hour at the destination returns over €123,14 per hour! Just joking. Enjoyed the video, would love to do such a lengthy autobahn trip in such a short timespan myself sometime!
