2018 Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Sport Turismo: Performance Specs

This insanely fast Panamera sprints to 60 mph in only 3.2 seconds - the same time it takes you to say "2018 Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Sport Turismo."

Originally published September 2017.

The new wagon-style version of the Panamera sedan dubbed the 2017 Panamera Sport Turismo, launched just this year arriving at dealerships now. But for 2018, they’ve added a new, overachieving member to the family with the Turbo S E-Hybrid Sport Turismo.

Joining 4 other Sport Turismo models, including the Panamera 4 E-Hybrid, Porsche’s latest version combines the best of both worlds: a 550-hp 4.0L twin-turbo V8 from the Panamera Turbo Sport Turismo and 136 hp electric motor.

A Near-700 Horsepower, V8-Powered Porsche Sedan

  • Engine: 4.0-liter V8 engine paired with an electric motor
  • Total Power Output: 680 horsepower
  • Torque: 626 lb-ft of torque

  • Top Speed: Approximately 192 mph

The result? The fastest, most powerful family wagon that will get you to work or your kids to school in record time, with a boost strategy derived from the 918 Spyder; propelling 0-60 mph in just 3.2 seconds, the E-performance drive allows the vehicle to reach the 200 km/h mark in 8.5-seconds. And backed by 680 hp and 626 lb.-ft. of torque with a top speed of 192 mph, there shouldn’t be any excuses for late arrivals.
