Porsche Expands the Panamera Lineup With Two New Variants for 2025

Porsche is increasingly leaning into electrification, and the new hybrid Panamera shows that adding electricity can bring significant performance improvements. The 2025 Panamera lineup recently expanded with two new variants, including the gas-only GTS and Turbo S E-Hybrid.


The GTS is expected to get a 4.0-liter V8, making 493 horsepower and 457 pound-feet of torque. The Turbo S E-Hybrid will sport 771 horsepower and 737 pound-feet of torque, making it more powerful and faster around the Nurburgring than the new BMW M5.

  • Wolfwagen Am I the only one who thinks that this car should be saved and resto-moded with an early 2000's VTEC? Perhaps go a little crazy and swap in the power train from an S2000?
  • Ger65690267 Well, the TFL guys who have a Cybertruck with even more miles have noted their tires still look fine. They drive all sorts of terrain and situations, and they haven't seen the wear, which means that guy is running his truck probably rather hard more than he cares to admit.
  • SCE to AUX "EVs tend to chew through tires in a way that surprises many new owners". That hasn't been my experience. My EV has 210 ft-lbs of torque on 16-inch tires, 3100 lbs curb weight. Tire life has been just like a gas car, which varies according to driving habits. So I agree with the "big surprise" headline.

However it does look like you need that specific sidewall design or part of the wheel cover won't fit. Not a "feature" I'd want.
