New Porsche PHEV for order now

Porsche continues its E-Performance strategy with the Panamera 4S E-Hybrid a new addition to its range of plug-in hybrids (PHEVs).

The 4S E-Hybrid has a 17.9kWh battery (increased from the previous model’s 14.1kWh) and up to 54km electric range which is up to 30% more than previous hybrid models.

The combination of the 100kW electric motor integrated into the eight-speed dual-clutch PDK transmission and the 2.9-litre V6 biturbo engine with 324kW generates a system output of 412kW and a maximum system torque of 750Nm.

The car can sprint to 100km/h in 3.7 seconds and has a 298km/h top speed, with driving modes optimised even more than previously for efficient energy use.

Comfort and sportiness both benefit from enhanced chassis components and control systems in combination with new-generation steering control and tyres.

The Panamera also offers an extensive range of innovative light and assistance systems, such as the now standard LED matrix headlights including PDLS Plus, lane change assist, lane keeping assist and head-up display, as well as the optional night vision assist and traffic jam assistant.

The 4S E-Hybrid priced at $262,300 is among seven new models available to order in New Zealand, customer deliveries expected to start in the first quarter of 2021.
