Pre-series variant of third-gen Porsche Panamera is executive sedan king of the ‘Ring
, Porsche has broken another record in the ‘Ring. This time, it’s the lap time for luxury class cars with combustion engines and hybrids. The car? Well, it’s the future top model of the third-generation Porsche Panamera .
Porsche is yet to name the new top model of the Panamera series. And while they are also yet to launch the model, Porsche blasted through the Nordschleife in the new variant with Lars Kern behind the wheel and set a time of 7:24.17. The laptime is 5.6 seconds faster than the previous-generation Panamera Turbo S, thanks to a combination of an “electrically supported” 8-cylinder combustion engine, stickier Michelin tires, and a more aggressive carbon aero kit.
Porsche says a video of the complete lap will soon be available on their YouTube channel, but the big question is what will the new top Panamera variant be called? Will it gain the Turbo GT moniker like the Taycan? Or is it another Turbo S? That we’ll find out soon.AutoIndustriya.com is the leading automotive resource for the Philippines.
