2023 Porsche Panamera 4 E-Hybrid

The Panamera is Porsche's full-size luxury sedan, offered as a hatchback or wagon, and it's the one you pick when you need four doors but still want a sports car's feel. Every Panamera corners with a flat, planted confidence that makes long stretches of twisty road feel effortless, and the steering is precise enough to place the car exactly where you want it. The air suspension soaks up most bumps, though the ride is on the firm side in the sportier modes, which is the trade for how well it handles. Inside, the cabin is beautifully built with high-quality materials, and the hatchback body gives you a surprisingly large cargo area for a luxury sedan. The 4 E-Hybrid gives up fifty-one horsepower to the 4S but saves over six thousand dollars at base price, making it the most accessible way into a plug-in Panamera. Its combined 455 horsepower arrives from a 2.9L I6 plug-in hybrid and an electric motor, and the quiet EV start becomes a seamless punch as the gas engine wakes up. One option you'll find on this trim is the Sport Chrono package, which adds a Sport Response button that gives you a twenty-second burst of maximum power on demand.
