Porsche is preparing a little brother for the two-door Panamera returns the 928

At the Geneva Motor Show 1977 Porsche discovered at 928, a Porsche Panamera GT front engine designed to compete with their counterparts from other brands. The popularity achieved during the more than 17 years of history of the model was somewhat limited, but served as an advance for other "rarities" in the catalog of Porsche, the Cayenne is still nearby, equally maligned by many purists.

But this is 2006, and the dispute over the ever-expanding range of Porsche Panamera is still alive, this time thanks to the Porsche Panamera. Its new platform will allow Porsche to fight in the lists of other German manufacturers with sales in the segment of the most exclusive sedans, and also give the opportunity to return to their creators to life the name 928, shortening the distance between axles and erasing at a stroke the rear doors. Porsche Panamera wants a rival for the BMW M6, the Mercedes CL AMG, the Aston Martin DB9 and Jaguar XKR, so you need a more even your 911.

Car and Driver has been done with some information about the new GT, which came along with two images infographics. As mentioned above, and Porsche 928 Panamera will share a platform, expected to receive the first 60% of the parts of the second. A short battle with a multi-link suspension tougher and added several kilos less sportsmanship, which in any case will be poured through a V8 engine of more than Porsche Panamera 350 horses, or even the same block of biturbo Cayenne, yielding over 500 horses. The broadcasts will be similar to those offered in the Porsche Panamera, and consist of a 6-speed manual or a dual-clutch with 7 speeds.

The journal situates its starting price of just around 100,000 U.S. dollars (80,000 euros) to end surpassing the 150,000 dollars (120,000 euros) for the most powerful version, a segment in which the Bentley Continental GT is master and lord. If all goes according to plans, Porsche will introduce the Porsche Panamera 928 in 2011, one year before they begin their sales.

Porsche spent 150 million euros to build the Panamera

I recently covered the latest information on the Porsche Panamera, but we still have more than contaros Supersedes on the Porsche. This past week, the Germans were the last and symbolic beam in the new premises of Leipzig, where it will manufacture the model. The expansion works at Porsche Panamera will cost you a whopping 150 million euros, and will accommodate its new model alongside the Cayenne, although there will also be space for other things, as a new logistics center and a training workshop, for example. Porsche Panamera In total, the cost of expansion has exceeded the initial budget fourth developed by Porsche.

According to the manufacturer, after its completion, Leipzig should produce up to 50,000 Cayenne and Porsche Panamera a year in 2009, when it starts to move the new chain. As for its new GT, the engines will be manufactured in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen, and the bodies come from the plant that VW has in Hanover. The new model Porsche Panamera will create 600 new jobs in Leipzig, and another 500 in Hanover. The press release distributed by Porsche ends by saying that the structure of the new facilities will be completed in summer, at which point we will begin to install the machinery of production.

The Porsche Cayenne and Panamera will have hybrid versions

The Porsche Cayenne and Panamera will have hybrid versions

European law is getting increasingly severe in terms of emissions of carbon dioxide and therefore, Porsche is already beginning to think of hybrid systems for the Cayenne and Porsche Panamera, so well these comply with the limit of 130 grams of CO2 per kilometer. It is already known that Audi and Bosch are working together to create a Gaso-electric system for the Cayenne, which should be ready by the end of this decade, followed promptly by their version for the Porsche Panamera. While the hybrid technology is typically used with the intention of improving the consumption of cars Porsche Panamera, electric motors are not without power and can achieve impressive torque, something that surely knows about Porsche.

If the hybrid technology becomes mandatory at some point, the German mark and will be aimed at least in the right direction. For now, Porsche and reduced the percentage of Cayenne's CO2 emissions by 15% this year, and while that percentage sounds good, the reality is that it is still the most efficient model of Porsche, the Cayman, emits 222 g / km of CO2, while the Cayenne Turbo comes to the 358 g / km. Absurd.

Is it a rare four-door Porsche? Probably for many fans of the brand is. The thing is that no longer looks so distant they appear official and we are going better accustomed to the idea.

As evidence the Porsche Panamera photo above, the guys in Stuttgart are working at full speed to complete the model, which this time brings the engine forward, you pull back and four seats. The front fascia Porsche shouts to the four winds with his conservative group and an optical edge reminiscent of the Turbo and Cayman. Unfortunately since the A-pillar rearward, the shape is lost and little is finished.

We hope that if things go as scheduled, the first Porsche Panamera will begin to leave the plant in Leipzig to reach dealers by the end of next year. The battle is tough against the Maserati Quattroporte and the CL S55 AMG.

The controversial GT Porsche has been found again with lenses Automedia, only this time have not taken photos but video, pictures in motion while doing some tests.

The disproportionate mule recorded by the spy is the same as we have seen before, but AutoExpress adds some information confirming that the Porsche Panamera will be presented at the Porsche Panamera Geneva Motor Show 2009. Porsche Panamera The smallest model would use a 3 liter V6 engine VAG able to pay 300 horses, while above in the catalog we would find ourselves with two variants V8, 350 and 560 horses (the latter assisted by two peat).

Auto Motor und Sport reported that Porsche has finally announced that the Porsche Panamera will be built in Leipzig, former home of the Carrera GT and assembly center of the current Cayenne. Production of the Porsche Panamera will lead to the creation of approximately 500 new jobs when it begins to roll from the chains at the end of 2008.

The Porsche Panamera not hit the market until 2009, at which point we will have to compete with sports saloons on the size of the Mercedes CLS 55 AMG and the Maserati Quattroporte, offering itself as a cheaper alternative to the Ferrari 612 Scaglietti or the Bentley Continental GT. An attractive price (for the segment) and its powerful Porsche Panamera 4.5 V8 engine from 400 to 500 hp derivative of Cayenne, will be its main strengths is to get into a market as fiercely competitive but exclusive.

The Aston Martin Rapide could arrive before the Porsche Panamera

The Aston Martin Rapide could arrive before the Porsche Panamera

It seems that the chief executive of Aston Martin had "partially confirmed" that the Rapide Concept which was introduced in the Hall of the Detroit Motor Show will reach dealerships before the most exclusive Porsche Panamera. The Rapide should be ready for production in Porsche Panamera 2007, while the porschistas will have to wait until 2009 if they want to put their hands on the wheel of the Porsche Panamera. The credibility of this information is somewhat questionable, since even then the Rapide would not be on sale until later and Porsche has already confirmed that manufacture the Porsche Panamera in Leipzig in 2008, amen to the rumors pointing to a model of pre-production of the latter for the Hall of the Paris Motor Show in September.

With its launch date planned for 2009, we have plenty of time to see trucks full of spy photos of the Porsche Panamera, such as those that link today, if that be fully revealing, they are approaching a little profile of the new large coupe Porsche (although we would like to know how far that is modified bodywork to deceive).

With a privileged site for driver and three lucky passengers, the Porsche Panamera should be available with a variety of engines ranging from a "restrained" 3.5 V6 Cayenne taken from a runaway V10 700 hp, let alone a supposed hybrid version ( with a gasoline engine and electric) train which would be co-developed with VW.

By 2009 this segment will be the most crowded, including models like the Aston Martin Rapide and the Audi A7, so that Porsche will have to put any meat on the grill to ensure a triumphant entry.

Spy Photos Porsche Panamera on the inside

Although we already have seen the very Porsche Panamera on the outside, the inside was all a secret until now. Luckily, we can always rely on Ms Brenda Priddy and his boys. Below, thanks to our favorite spy photographer, got the first (?) Picture of the board of the Porsche Panamera, Porsche half, half electronics store.

Fortunately, much of the china shop front that you have in front of your eyes belongs to the testing team, but we still see the typical Porsche GPS navigator, with a large screen and lots of tiny buttons on the sides. Below, there is something that we fail to identify, maybe air conditioning controls, judging by the red lines and blue. Porsche Panamera To the right, the instrument panel seem nailed to the Cayenne, with two large clocks to the revolutions and the speedometer, making framework to a central screen on which information is displayed on the vehicle. It is also interesting change of gear, surrounded by buttons to the left and right, as well as the Porsche Panamera MMI wheel type to be found behind it, not far from the red button for the ejection seats. Naturally, this detail and others outside the chamber will not get out of the units of evidence, so if you do not like what you see, there is still time to change (or not) of opinion.
