[@willywillywillywillywilly]

I disagree. It looks less elegant and cinematic than 24-25, and does not suit their content.

[@lougubrious9624]

the 50fps (maybe 48?) is really annoying. I mean, I guess if I was watching on my tv (and this was 48 and not 50fps) it might be slightly less annoying, but my laptop and phone hate this.

[@jamessheehy4895]

Henry Catchpole is one of the best motoring journalists in the world. There is no substitude for him, just like this brilliant Porsche. Great video!

If you can afford this car you can afford a mechanic worth a shit.

I will have to disagree with most and agree with Austin, what’s the car going to be like owning it in 15 years time?

[@erwinkonopka7071]

Hybrids have been on market for more than 20 years now. If your mechanic has not yet learn to service them then he either has a really poor customer base or is one lazy mofo.

Henry, incredible work yet again. I watched your video on the 991 C4S countless times before buying my own 991. You are truly one of the best reviewers today with your own style of presentation. Superb!

Porsche’s dashboard and infotainment design is just so neat. Minimalist yet fancifully elegant!

Just purchased one of these and this is the nicest car I have ever owned. I had a bunch of 911s , Mercs, Audi and a mclaren 12c. This car has everything you need packed into one.

[@parky2310]

Absolutely stunning - there was one of these monsters in Porsche Wilmslow finished in Black which had to be seen to be believed - huge presence and incredible looks - as Henry said, how Porsche turned the regular ugly duckling Panamera into something so beautiful is very special indeed! Brilliant video as ever from Mr Catchpole et al - could watch these and listen to Henry all day! 👍👍👍👍

The car costs over 200k. Turbo S -E hybrids barely depreciate. I think you’re looking at regular panameras in which yeah, they do.

5:59 why massive touchscreens suck

[@kagolko]

Love the Panamera, but even if I was very rich I'd rather go for RS7, have the sane performance for less money (not to mention less weight..), cheaper service and I have feeling that a hybrid Porch is going to loose the price rapidly as it's well known that battery looses it's qualities just after 2-3 years and it only gets worse after that.. Also BIG THANK YOU CARFECTION for all this superb free content ♥️♥️

Fantastic video Henry! Shocking to think that after having cars like the BMW e34 M5 Touring and the Audi RS4 Avant wagon, the new king of German sport wagons is Porsche. It's also amazing to me that the most exciting Porsche's this year aren't 911's but this car and the Cayman. Don't get me wrong, still love 911's, but this car is awesome mechanically and aesthetically. Great job Henry! Cheers mate!

[@kaileysweeney4240]

I casually look up my KZbin Notifications to find a Crafection video. Play it for the first few seconds and put it away if it’s from Henry Catchpole. Only to grab whatever snack and sit back and relish the video- watching it any other casual way feels like not having done justice to it. 😃 RANJAN, India

Stellar cinematography as always and that high fps is just the last crop of cream it could have

I never thought 50 fps would make such a huge difference. The distinction is instantly obvious and vastly more pleasant.

[@Taroth21]

I dont understand why ppl are hating on the MK I Panamera that much. To be honest I love its shape.. especially the rear.. it looks bulky, mascular, MANLY :D I love it

[@edwill1595]

I had a look at one of these at our local dealership... damn the quality an attention to detail is incredible... it’s a solid car!!

[@Mastermindthreethousand]

You only realize how big (wide and long) and powerful that car is until you see it in front of you and hear the exhaust and engine sounds. It is a pretty impressive sight, especially in an underground parking lot.

Usually Wales. Pretty much the only place with decent roads less than 3-4hrs from London..

Porsche has done a great job with the styling on the new Panamera. The earlier gens looked horrendous. This new one looks so much more smoother yet muscular. I love it

I was stood next to one at Porsche Cambridge when I was down there the other day. Really nice looking car. I specced one up to about 140k if I can remember the numbers correctly, not particularly hard to be honest. I should add. An absolutely epic car.

[@williambrewer855]

This is what the future of cars should be.

[@iea96]

4K *and* 50fps? Wow.

[@kingphiltheill]

@Carfection great video as ever. But when you're reviewing a hybrid, how about 60 seconds dedicated to it's hybrid bits and bobs? Is it any good? Does it actually safe fuel or is it just for cheating the London congestion charge? How far can it take you in a certain weather? Do you expect future owners to actually charge it if it's a Plug-In? I think lots of viewers may be interested in that kind of thing. Have a good one, guys.

[@HenryCatchpole]

Fair enough. Will bear that in mind for future reviews.

[@djish242]

Phu Son Nguyen you know that the car charges itself? No need to plug it just put it on sport plus and you’ll have full power again driving full electric for up to 20 miles and up to 90mph is something quite impressive. Porsche not only developed the 918 Spyder to showcase the future but unlike Ferrari and McLaren they’re actually putting that technology into their other production cars not to mention it actually came from racing (e-Hybrid) also it happens to be the third most powerful Porsche ever built number one 918 number 887hp number 2 GT2 RS 700hp and now the Panamera Turbo S e-Hybrid rumor has it the cayenne is up next and then the 911 eventually all porsche top models will have hybrid system and yep the Taycan the first full electric Porsche is coming at the end of this year. Cheers

[@kingphiltheill]

@@djish242 the car charging it's own battery is by far the least efficient way to drive on electricity and contradicts the whole purpose of having a plug in hybrid: never to use fuel on regular short trips while having the ability to take long trips without the long charging times of electric cars. I don't care if the car got sooo many horsepower if the hybrid powertrain isn't well implemented or just can't serve a purpose in real life use. Exactly that is, what could be analized for such a video. If you just like to see mega horsepower in an estate body, buy yourself an E63 and take it to a good tuner.

[@djish242]

kingphiltheill ok buddy 👌🏽 have fun with your Prius 🙏🏽

[@djish242]

Phu Son Nguyen I own a Panamera Turbo, the ehybrid 680hp is in another league but that’s just my opinion again there’s many factors to consider and one of them is...yep the future is electric or hybrid in some source so either we like it or not that’s the direction things are heading. I just learned that the Prius is now AWD, Porsche has been doing this before anyone and they definitely know what they doing our opinions are and always be just that opinions, one of the most successful car companies that has won the most races in the planet 🙏🏽

[@titaniummechanism3214]

If Money was no object and I had to choose one car to live with, just one car, I'd probably go for this. The Panamera was high up in the ranking anyway, but now that they offer it as an hybrid estate, it is almost perfect!

[@onechen2012]

2:58 how many times did you practise that before we got to see the 'perfect' recital????

[@HenryCatchpole]

Nailed it first time! (Thankfully. I think it's one of those things that would have got more and more difficult if I'd had to do multiple takes. Helps when you've written the words too)

The Panamera 4 E-Hybrid Sport Turismo is fabulous also, with its 462 hp -- and it's way way cheaper (like USD 70k cheaper). I really cannot understand how anybody would want the forthcoming Taycan over this car, which looks better to me and is more versatile without range anxiety.
