Porsche hasn’t technically called it a wagon, but we will. And a gorgeous wagon at that. The new Panamera Sport Turismo joins the growing family of coupe-style saloons, making its world debut at the upcoming 2017 Geneva Motor Show, where all four versions of the new model will be displayed: the Panamera 4, Panamera 4S, Panamera 4 E-Hybrid, and Panamera Turbo (specs for each below).
Sporting a new body with a completely different rear wagon-esque treatment, the 550-hp Sport Turismo is more versatile than any other model in its class. Sitting 1937mm wide and 5049mm long, Porsche’s latest Panamera definitely retains its unmistakable style, including short body overhangs and wheels measuring up to 21 inches in diameter.

More Seats, More Usability (Without Losing Porsche DNA)
Unlike its Panamera siblings, which feature two comfortable rear seats, the Sport Turismo offers seating for three with a 2+1 configuration, making this the first time the Panamera is being offered to accommodate a trio of passengers in the back. This move, in our eyes, leans more towards a family car, veering away from accommodating just the executive types.
Aside from the extra seat and modified body style, the Panamera Sport Turismo will offer the segment’s first adaptively extendible roof spoiler that adjusts to three stages depending on the driving situation. When the Sport Turismo reaches speeds above 170 km/h, the roof spoiler automatically moves to the performance position with an angle of +1 degree, thereby enhancing driving stability and lateral dynamics.
