Long Roof and A Long Name: The Porsche Panamera Turbo S-E Hybrid Sports Turismo Hauls!


Long Roof and A Long Name: The Porsche Panamera Turbo S-E Hybrid Sports Turismo Hauls!

(By Tom Lohnes) – Are you a retired racecar driver? Is 591(Audi RS6) or 630 horsepower (Mercedes E63 S) not enough for you in a 5-seat Wagon? Well, Porsche has you covered with 693hp in the New Panamera Turbo S-E Hybrid Sports Turismo.

Yes, that is the real name of the car. Breaking it down,  Panamera is the model name, Turbo S-E Hybrid is the Engine choice, and Sport Turismo is the body style. That out of the way, this $200,000(!) Wagon packs 693 Horsepower, an 8-speed DCT, and AWD, make this the quickest way to get your kids to school. 0-60 happens in an alarming 2.9 seconds, which is especially impressive due to the Porsche’s 5,250-pound curb weight. Yikes.

Inside the Panamera is very bare bones without options, as Porsches can be before you start personalizing them. If you choose to option one up, you’ll have one of the the most expensive station wagon to ever grace the planet. I went on the configurator, and got one up to $265,000. Big Bucks for big power. 63.1 cubic feet of storage is available, and 4-or-5-seat options are available.

So, if you are a retired racer with big bucks, this is the car for you. Even though it is extremely heavy, expensive, and option-dense, at the end of the day, it’s a near-700 horsepower wagon. What’s cooler than that?
