Performance
The Panamera S E-Hybrid is a parallel plug-in hybrid. This means that it can be powered by the combustion engine alone, by the electric machine alone or by both units working together. In this way, it is able to exploit the power generated by both propulsion units. It’s a concept that’s been proven since 2011. What’s new is that the high-voltage battery is recharged in around 2.5 hours via direct connection to an 240V socket or, whilst driving, through the process of brake energy recovery known as recuperation, or via the combustion engine. Thanks to innovative lithium-ion technology, its capacity of 9.4 kWh means that it also stores much more energy.
The 3.0-liter supercharged V6 engine generates 333 hp, the electric machine 95 hp. Combined, they deliver 416 hp to the road at 5500 rpm. With both drives working together, the new Panamera S E-Hybrid accelerates from 0 to 60 mph in just 5.2 seconds.
The operating range of the hybrid drive begins with emissions-free and quiet driving up to a top track speed of around 83 mph, and over a range of up to 15 miles as determined by EPA drive cycle testing. The combustion engine is fired automatically when necessary as determined by the operating strategy or actively in response to the driver depressing the accelerator pedal beyond a specially defined pressure point. The kick-down point, however, enables the maximum power output available from both propulsion units to be purposefully exploited as and when the driver chooses. In e-boost mode, the combustion engine provides assistance for the electric drive – providing a sporty shunt into the future. In coasting mode, the combustion engine is decoupled to allow the car to glide for some distance under its own momentum – thereby further reducing the fuel consumption.
In summary, the E-hybrid concept promises one thing above all: sporty performance with utmost efficiency. The workings of the combustion engine, electric machine and high-voltage battery are synchronised by the electronic engine management. All processes run smoothly and harmoniously, leaving you to concentrate on what matters the most: driving.
Charging infrastructure
In our opinion, an innovative car concept is of no value if it ends with the car. E-Mobility therefore includes the infrastructure: an optimally integrated vehicle charge port, practical charging equipment and intelligent charging options, to use at home and on the road.
Car charging connection
The vehicle charge port connects the car to the electricity infrastructure.
Once plugged in, the vehicle plug is automatically identified by the car and locked. The car is now secured, even against driving off. The charging process starts immediately. If you use the charging timer to enter a time by when the battery should be charged, the charging process will start later. So that you can take advantage of cheaper nighttime tariffs, for example.
Two LEDs show the mains connection status and the battery’s charge level. When you open the car with the key, the charging process is stopped and the vehicle plug is released.
Charging accessories
When you buy an E-Hybrid you automatically receive the charging accessories that have been developed by Porsche itself. You can then charge your car at home and on the road quite safely, quickly and conveniently.
The Porsche Universal Charger (AC) establishes a safe connection between different sockets and your car. Charging normally starts automatically when it is plugged in. However, if there is a problem – due to a defective socket for example –, clear instructions will appear on the display.
The charging dock has been specially created by Porsche Design. The practical wall mount for the Porsche Universal Charger (AC) is like a private filling station – for your Porsche. The Porsche Universal Charger (AC) can be easily stowed in the transport case for use on the road. If you want to charge your car abroad, you can opt for an appropriate adapter cable – for all common sockets throughout the world.
