2016 Porsche Panamera Details Surface
British publication Autocar recently sat down for a Q&A with Wolfgang Hatz, Porsche board member for R&S, VW Group head of engine and transmissions, who dished the scoop on the all-new, and much anticipated Porsche Panamera.
The rendering pictured is heavily based on the stunning Panamera Gran Turismo concept from 2012, and we can only hope the final product will look this good. The current Panamera's looks have been very controversial and criticized since inception, and this make-over could be just what Porsche needs to steal buyers away from competing brands.
As reported by Julian Rendell:
Porsche is working flat out on a new aluminium-bodied, sportier-driving and better-looking Panamera ahead of its launch in late 2016.
Based on a new, advanced rear-drive and all-wheel-drive platform, dubbed MSB, the Panamera will incorporate multiple weight-saving measures and an all-new family of V6 and V8 petrol engines that promise a muscular power delivery to cement the Panamera’s position as the world’s sportiest premium saloon.
The template for the new Panamera is based on the technical and design advances introduced on the latest 991 series of the 911, which incorporates six different material types – including magnesium, multi-phase steels and aluminium skin panels.
