2024 Porsche Panamera E-Hybrid First Look Review: Power And Poise

A fresh exterior design for the Porsche Panamera Hybrid emphasizes width, while endowing the full-size sedan with more expressiveness than before. While still not beautiful, it’s a much more cohesive design than the first-generation Panamera.

Above the front license plate, there is a new air inlet, necessary to feed the upgraded powertrains with additional air. The new LED Matrix Design headlights have less rounded contours than before, and the detailing of the daytime running lights is more defined, with four horizontal lines per headlight cluster.

There is a new window line and the edges of the rear window sit flush with the body for a cleaner appearance. At the back, the horizontal, full-width taillights of the 2024 Panamera have a neater look, while the license plate no longer extends into the lower tailgate area.

Porsche wanted the Turbo E-Hybrid to be more easily distinguishable from other variants for this generation of the Panamera. To that end, this model has a unique lower rear fascia, complete with diffuser elements in the same main body color, dark bronze tailpipes, available centerlock wheels measuring 21 inches, and a bespoke front fascia.

This high-performance model also has a hood-mounted Porsche crest in Turbonite, and the same Turbonite finish is used for the side air blades of the air intakes, the wheel centers, and the window surrounds.

We expect a wide range of colors for the Porsche Panamera Hybrid, including expensive Paint to Sample options, but these haven’t been confirmed yet. The Turbo derivative pictured here is finished in Madeira Gold Metallic.
