The powertrain of the Panamera 4 E-Hybrid consists of a 330-horsepower biturbo V6 engine paired with an electric motor producing 136 hp (100 kW). Together, the motors deliver 462 hp and 700 Nm of torque, and can accelerate the car to 278 km/h, covering the first hundred in 4.6 seconds. Instead of the 8-speed Tiptronic S automatic, a PDK robot with the same number of gears now works.
Unlike the old version, the 4 E-Hybrid starts on electric power and starts the gasoline engine only when necessary. The electric range has increased to 50 km (instead of the previous 32 km), and the maximum speed in this mode is now 140 km/h. Average fuel consumption has decreased by 0.6 liters and is now only 2.5 liters per 100 km.
As with its predecessor, the battery of the new hybrid can be charged from the mains. A full charge will take about 6 hours, but with a special charging device, you can do it in 3.5 hours.
The first customers will be able to get their hybrid Panameras only in spring, but prices on the domestic market are already known – from 107,553 euros.
