2023 Porsche Panamera GTS

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. Stepping up to the GTS from the 4S adds a sport exhaust, black exterior trim, and a chassis tuned for sharper turn-in, making it the choice when you want the Panamera to feel more like a sports car. The 4.0L I8 makes 473 horsepower and pairs with automatic transmission and all-wheel drive, giving you strong passing power and all-weather traction without the weight of the hybrid system. The GTS-specific Sport Chrono package includes a mode switch on the steering wheel that sharpens throttle and damper response, and it's worth finding one with it.
