Performance Vs. Poundage: Is The Panamera About To Get Elephant Weight Like The 2025 BMW M5? - Storyboard

For 2024, range-topping Porsche Panamera Turbo put on a few extra pounds - now 5,302 - but it won't stop there

We are yet to see the range-topping Panamera Turbo 'S' E Hybrid make an appearance, which is expected to be even heavier

VAG has a history with heavyweights. The Bentley Continental GT tips the scales at 5,423 pounds

The 2024 Panamera Turbo E Hybrid packs almost as much power as the old Turbo S E Hybrid and more torque

670 hp and 685 lb-ft are enough for a 3.0-second 0-60 mph spring, but Porsche often downplays its performance figures

Porsche's innovative active suspension masks the Panamera's massive weight quite well

The 2024 Porsche Panamera Turbo E Hybrid has up to 58 miles of electric range

Some of the lesser V-6 Hybrid variants of the Panamera can provide up to 55 miles of electric range

The electric motor in the 2024 Panamera Turbo E Hybrid provides 187 hp instead of 134 in the old one

For 2024, the Panamera Turbo E Hybrid gets a bigger battery - 25.9 kWh versus 17.9 on the old Panamera

This suggests that the upcoming Panamera Turbo S E Hybrid might be even heavier. We'll have to wait and see if this is true.
