2014 Porsche Panamera 4

The Panamera is Porsche's four-door grand tourer, a hatchback that blends sports car performance with everyday usability. It drives with the poise of a much smaller car, with sharp steering and a chassis that stays composed through quick corners. Inside, the dashboard is a simple, tapered T with a vast array of large buttons and switches, keeping controls easy to reach without digging through menus. The hatchback body gives it a surprisingly roomy cargo area, making it practical enough for weekend trips with luggage for four. The Panamera 4 is the all-wheel-drive entry to the lineup, sharing its 3.6L V6 with the base model but adding traction for wet roads or snowy commutes. Its 3.6L V6 makes 310 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque, routed through a seven-speed automatic to all four wheels, and it returns 21 mpg combined. The 4 comes on steel springs as standard, but you can option adaptive air suspension with PASM for a plusher ride or sharper body control.
