Frequently asked questions

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.

Among the 9 limousines 2008–2012, the Panamera S ranks 6th of 9 in 0–100 km/h (5.1 s, behind the Porsche Panamera Turbo), 5th of 9 in Top speed (283 km/h, behind the Porsche Panamera Turbo S), 6th of 9 in Power-to-weight (226 hp/t, behind the Porsche Panamera Turbo).

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

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.

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.
