Together with the Turbo S E-Hybrid flagship, Porsche introduced the new 2025 Panamera GTS, which it says is focused on “driver engagement and agility”. The GTS is powered by a V8 engine, albeit without any form of electrified assistance. More importantly it features a version-specific chassis setup and sporty touches inside-out. The twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 is slightly detuned compared to the hybrid models, producing 493 hp. Nonetheless, this marks a 20 hp improvement over the previous GTS.
According to Porsche, the new Panamera GTS
accelerates from 0-100 km/h in 3.6 seconds (-0.1 seconds quicker
than before), and has a top speed of 303 km/h. Furthermore, the sound
experience is enhanced by the standard sport exhaust system. The highlight of
the GTS is the chassis upgrades, aimed at sharpening its road prowess and
enhancing driving enjoyment without compromising ride comfort. These include a
sportier calibration for the standard air suspension, lowered by 10 mm (0.4
inches) compared to the standard Panamera, along with reinforced anti-roll bars
and a lower basic spring rate. The model is also equipped with the
electronically-controlled PTV Plus limited-slip differential.
The exterior features black GTS emblems
that complement the Satin-Matt Black accents of the standard Sport Package and
the darker lighting units. Borrowed from the Turbo S E-Hybrid, the 21-inch
center-lock wheels in Anthracite Grey contrast with the red brake calipers.
Completing the look, the quad tailpipes of the standard-fit sport exhaust are
finished in Dark Bronze. Moving inside, Porsche added a generous amount of
Race-Tex, as a reference to its motorsport heritage. The company provides two
GTS-specific interior packages featuring Carmine Red or Slate Grey Neo
highlights, with a Matte Carbon Fiber package available at an extra cost.
The 2025 Porsche Panamera is already
available for ordering, ahead of its arrival at US dealers in late Q1 2025.
Pricing starts from US$ 154,200, excluding tax, title, registration, dealer
charges, and a US$ 1,995 delivery fee. This makes it significantly cheaper than
the electrified Turbo e-Hybrid and Turbo S e-Hybrid models.
