The 2016 Porsche Panamera is a luxury sport sedan that represents the second generation of its kind. Boasting a choice of rear-wheel or all-wheel drive, the Panamera is characterized by its powerful engine options: from a 310-hp V6 in the base model to a 570-hp V8 in the Turbo S version. Transmission is handled by either a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic or an 8-speed Tiptronic S automatic, depending on the model. Available in a range of trims, the Panamera offers an extended list of standard and optional features, including Porsche's Communication Management system with a 7-inch touchscreen, navigation, and Apple CarPlay. Safety is highlighted by available features like adaptive cruise control, lane-departure warning, and forward-collision warning with automatic braking. The 2016 model year saw the introduction of a new Panamera Edition model with special trim and equipment.
