The Porsche Panamera is a mid- to full-sized luxury car (E-segment or F-segment for LWB in Europe) manufactured and marketed by German automobile manufacturer Porsche.[1][2][3] It currently spans across three generations, using a front-engine and rear- or all-wheel drive configuration.
The Panamera debuted at the 13th Auto Shanghai International Automobile Show in April 2009,[4] later launching hybrid and diesel versions in 2011. In April 2013, the company introduced a facelifted model, again at the Shanghai Auto Show,[5] followed by the US introduction of a plug-in hybrid version, the Panamera S E-Hybrid, in November 2013.[6] Porsche launched the second-generation Panamera in 2016, and in November 2023, the third generation was introduced.
The Panamera name, as with the Carrera name, is derived from the Carrera Panamericana race.
