Porsche Panamera S: what you need to know

Well-argued answers to the most asked questions about this model, based on Caralogy data and simulations.

Where does the Panamera S rank in its segment?

Among the 9 limousines 2008–2012, the Panamera S ranks 7th of 9 in 0–100 km/h (5.1 s, behind the Porsche Panamera Turbo), 7th of 9 in Top speed (283 km/h, behind the Porsche Panamera Turbo S), 7th of 9 in Power-to-weight (226 hp/t, behind the Porsche Panamera Turbo).

How much does the Panamera S cost to run?

Running costs depend on your profile (mileage, charging type, city/highway mix). Use the Caralogy consumption simulator for a personalised estimate.

Why not a Porsche Panamera Turbo instead?

The Porsche Panamera Turbo leads in 0–100 km/h (3.9 s vs 5.1 s). The choice depends on your priorities: check the Panamera S vs Porsche Panamera Turbo duel for a detailed comparison.

How does Caralogy calculate its figures?

Caralogy does not reproduce manufacturer figures: we recalculate every number through physics simulation, starting from SCx, mass and the power curve. This is why our figures at 130 km/h differ from WLTP. Full methodology on the dedicated page.
