2017 Porsche Panamera details

We have spotted the 2017 Porsche Panamera on several occasions in camouflage however this time had peeled off its camouflage as the summer starts in Europe. The new-generation Panamera has been seen in Europe as its final set of testing. The new Panamera is all ready to be revealed and the engineers seem to be doing their final set of testing.

2017 Porsche Panamera Exterior

Even though the Stuttgart based automaker had placed some camouflage on the headlamps and even the tails. The rest of the body is visible and yes, this seems to be production ready. Do you recall the 2012 Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo concept? Seems that Porsche has implemented the same design on the new-gen version minus the wagon.

The sleek front along with the stylish headlamps on the Panamera makes it look a lot more stylish. The rear notchback design has been changed and this resembles the 911. This is a welcome change as the Panamera didn’t get that “wow” sense from its rear.

Built on an all new platform— the MSB— the Panamera shares its underpinnings with the next-gen Bentley Continental. Whats more? There will even be a Panamera Coupe and Convertible models that shall be based on the Panamera. The new Panamera shall shed a weight of 100 kilograms (220 pounds) at least, as this is a new light platform made of aluminium, high-strength steel and even some composites.

2017 Porsche Panamera Interior

Porsche will make the Panamera as a four seater. This will come with a humongous boot that hatches.

The interiors will be filled with several gizmos and there will be loads of buttons too. Expect some similarity to the Cayenne’s interiors, which is due in 2018. Inside, the Panamera continues to have the four seating layout. There is are two separate seats at the rear instead of a three seater bench. The rear seats are separated by a console and then there is a touchscreen system at the rear.
