One of the few times I've seen a very professional, NEUTRAL car reviewer. I giggled when, at the very end, you politely but sternly said (essentially): a car built for a normal, human family... costing a quarter of a million dollars? Is it really worthy it, all the technologies & bells & whistles notwithstanding?

Fantastic automotive journalism! Well done guys you make a great team!

[@googleuser3007]

OMG! I can’t imagine replacing any part of that suspension. I owned a 2007 Mercedes SL 550 and the ABC hydraulic suspension pump let go-there was fluid all over my engine- and my driver side rear strut needed replacing. Thank goodness the ABC pump was still under warranty. However, struts are not warranty items. It cost me nearly $3,800. That was just one strut. As soon as that extended warranty expired, I sold that car.

[@dr-ok3sn]

180.000€ for the Turbo actually isn't that much compared to the S 63 E starting at 208.000€ otherwise great review as always!

[@AlpineBoysClub]

Great review as always Thomas! I also prefer the gasoline models as eHybrids are heavier and less "purist" as you mentioned. I think the sweet spot is the GTS (I heard they'd announce in coming summer) but my concern is lack of the Active Ride system. I assume that performance wise a GTS and 4eHybrid would be comparable (even though v8 will be much more of an engine), while the 4eHybrid will offer the Active Ride. Turbo eHybrid will solve all the problems (v8 with Active Ride) but I think that it's too overpriced for a Panamera. What would you recommend between GTS and 4eHybrid? (4S eHybrid won't be available in my country). You said you'd rather get the base Panamera for the more purist driving, does that mean you feel like the Active Ride is not worth it (hence the pure v8 GTS will be the best choice?). Thank you always!

[@Fitbrit88]

That active suspension would be great for clearing over debris and homeless people in our rapidly approaching dystopian future!

[@screamingiraffe]

The reason I return to Porsche is the service, the car is a no-brainer, but the service is exceptional, unmatched. Just make sure you can afford it before diving in

[@geraldhaas]

Tolles Review, danke. Welche Farbe hatte der Turbo?

[@krisianzavalani]

Thomas one suggestion which I would love that I havent seen anyone do it... When reviewing Plug-Ins no one ever mentions or tests them with 0 battery or mention if the system allows a bit of battery at all times so you can maintain full power in long trips for example. I think you were the only one mentioning it once on a porsche but cant remember which video was and I think you should give that information on every Plug-In. It would be fantastic as you can not find it anywhere even from the manufacturer.

[@miquel991]

Hi, I have the 2023 Panamera 4s e-hybrid for 9 months now. Battery is still the former one (so less powerful), but I think it will be the same in both cases. You always have the boost function available, even when it shows "0 Km" (so empty) in electric. In sport & sport +, it charges the battery while going, up to a 80% (if you drive enough time, of course). In a 500 Km trip, I started with empty battery: it was from Germany to Brussels, and in the German motorways, I was in Sport mode, changing to hybrid when arriving to Belgium. Looking at the stats, I did 70 Km in electric motor (fully charged: I get around 50 Km). Regards, Miquel

[@krisianzavalani]

@@miquel991 Hi Miquel, Thank you so much for clarifying I have always been curious for Plug Ins as no one ever gives this type of info on the review. Enjoy your car! Cheers, Kris

[@koochie88]

Is the Leah Meter an optional extra on all Panameras ?

[@dcDOC19]

The best gentlemen sport sedan... Absolutely gorgeous.

[@Cloxxki]

€8000 for active ride seems a fair price, considering Tesla charges a lot more for software that does NOT do what its name says it does.

[@dirkcurritzki9585]

Very fair. They charge $500 for interior lighting package

[@TizzleT]

Yet everyone thought US$6500 was expensive for the similar (prequel to this) E-active body control by Mercedes.

[@peteeberhardt3769]

As much as I love this car I kinda fell in love with the E53 AMG you reviewed 2 days ago. The i6, the mild hybrid, and the glowy interior and screens were just so much better than this. Still, the Panamara is a Porsche and that suspension was hilarious.

[@myemailiscool]

E53 is beyon a mild hybrid, it's a plug-in, and for much less than the panamera E-hybrid. I agree with you, I would save many thousands and go with the E53, if i wanted a plugin hybrid executive sedan.

[@goncalo33]

This car's much better, as far as I'm concerned.

[@peteeberhardt3769]

@@myemailiscool Yeah I agree, you make a good point. I just have a tendency to refer to most hybrid systems as "mild" because I feel they should be so much more robust.

[@martinsvensson6884]

Screens in a car instead of knobs/buttons are an ergonomic disaster... No matter how "cool" it looks. But it doesnt even look cool when they are just clued on. Complete eye sore. And all that constant glow everywhere is distracting.

[@fs7699]

Can the suspension also stay in the higher position while driving? That would be cool when driving on rougher terrain or on steep driveways

[@SDav21]

I love how with Porsche it feels like the engineers still rule whereas with some other German companies (cough Mercedes cough), the engineers have no say and it's just cost cutting. Love this company and their engineering approach to making cars. This is why I fell in love with German machines. The engineering stood out. Now with some of the brands it no longer does. So well done Porsche. Don't stop being masters in engineering.
