Renowned Porsche tuner TechArt has introduced the GrandGT program for the Panamera, which covers pretty much every aspect of the executive car. The engine management system, which does not interfere with the standard software, increases the output and torque of the GTS and Turbo S models by 182 PS and 150 Nm, and 90 PS and 130 Nm respectively.
This means that the twin-turbo 4.0-liter
V8 engine produces, according to TechArt, 669 PS and 770 Nm in the Panamera GTS, and 720 PS and 950 Nm in the Panamera Turbo S. The 0 to 100 km/h acceleration takes
3.4 and 3.0 seconds respectively, while top speed stands at 305 km/hin the GTS and 315 km/h in the Turbo S.
TechArt has increased the width of the car
by 50 mm at the front and 80 mm at the rear by adding wheel arch
extensions. The front bumper features larger air intakes that optimize the
airflow and improve the cooling of the brakes, and an integrated apron. The
carbon fiber hood with a powerdome and central air outlet contributes to the
muscular design, alongside the rear wing and four-fin diffuser with cutouts for
the titanium tailpipes with carbon fiber coating. A selection of 21- and
22-inch wheels rounds out the exterior makeover.
For the interior, the tuner offers a
selection of leather and Alcantara, in different patterns and colors, contrast
stitching and piping, aftermarket floor and trunk mats, and carbon fiber trim,
and their logo is embossed in the door trim, seats and floor mats.
