VIDEO: The new Panamera and Panamera 4 - World Premiere at Beijing

The new Panamera models with V6 engines combine the best of two worlds: sportiness and efficiency. And embody our interpretation of the classic theme 4 doors, 4 seats. Both models are presented to the public for the first time at the Auto China in Beijing.

I can not seem to figure out why they are making this model. Porsche is trying to get into too many different markets...they need to stay with coupes and possible SUV's, but trying to compete with an E350 and 525i, is just not what porsche does. They have already blown the E63 and M5 away, why blow the cheaper models away as well?

I'm not sure either, IMHO.

They should have looked at Mercedes-Benz with their latest S550. Only until sales were secured as a success did they then release a smaller engine, albeit Hybrid S400H- but still.

V6 Panamera is a BAD idea in the US.
