| The '''[[Porsche]] Panamera''' is a four-door, four-seat [[coupe]], currently still in concept stages, set to be launched in 2009. It will be front engined and rear wheel drive and powered by a modified version of the 4.5 L V8 found in the [[Porsche Cayenne|Cayenne]], equipped with the [[gasoline direct injection|FSI]] system invented by [[Volkswagen]] (Porsche and Volkswagen collaborated on the Cayenne/[[Volkswagen_Touareg|Touareg]] [[sport utility vehicle]]). Base spec models will be engineered with a 3.6 litre V6 found in the upcoming 2008 facelifted Cayenne, and there is even a hybrid version in the pipeline. Rumours suggest that the [[V10 engine|V10]] engine from Porsche's limited-run [[Porsche Carrera GT|Carrera GT]] supercar may be offered as well, although this is still extremely unlikely given the expense of manufacturing the engine and that Porsche does not currently have a facility capable of producing a suitable number of the V10 per year. A rumour is also around that the V12 diesel from the [[Audi Q7]] could make it into the Panamera
| |
| | |
| The final assembly of the vehicles will take place in Leipzig. Engines will be assembled in Stuttgart, and the car's painted body will come from the Volkswagen facility in Hanover.
| |
| | |
| The Panamera is generally considered to be the long-awaited fruit of their [[Porsche 989|989]] concept from the late 1980s; some argue that it also presents itself as a suitable successor to the 2-doored [[Porsche 928|928]], although some amount of debate surrounds this. It will be marketed as a direct competitor to automobiles such as the [[Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class| Mercedes-Benz CLS 55 AMG]] and [[Maserati Quattroporte]] and (to a lesser degree) a less expensive alternative to vehicles such the [[Bentley Continental GT]], [[Ferrari 612 Scaglietti]] and [[Aston Martin Rapide]]. It is the first [[V8]]-engined [[sports car]] built by Porsche since 1995, when the 928 was discontinued and will be produced in the new plant at Leipzig alongside the [[Porsche Cayenne|Cayenne]]. The vehicle has been caught testing at the Nurburgring and the original sketches are a little more sleek than the taped up model spied testing

| | |
| Artist renderings of the car already distributed by Porsche show a low-slung, four-door sports car with narrow side windows and flowing lines. However spy shots of the Porsche Panamera testing at the Nurburgring show a more blunt car than the artists renderings, it looks a little like a stretched 997 Turbo
| |
| | |
| The Panamera's name is derived, like the [[Porsche Carrera]] line, from the [[Carrera Panamericana]] race. Earlier prototypes of four-door sedans such as the 1991 [[Porsche 989]] prototype or the even earlier 4 door 911 based prototype, never went into production.
