Porsche Panamera Diesel

Porsche has officially released the Panamera Diesel. With a range in excess of 1,200 kilometres on an 80 liter tank, the new Panamera Diesel is an economical GT saloon. Thanks to its fuel consumption of only 6.3 liters per 100 kilometer, it is the first Porsche Gran Turismo with a six-cylinder diesel engine that can drive from Berlin to Bologna without refuelling.
The Panamera Diesel has three-litre V6 engine with a rated output of 250hp achieved between 3,800rpm and 4,400rpm. The maximum torque of 550Nm is available all the way from 1,750rpm to 2,750rpm. Linked to an eight-speed Tiptronic S, the six-cylinder turbo diesel powers the new Gran Turismo from a standing start to 100km/h in 6.8 seconds, with a top speed of 242km/h. The Panamera Diesel is exclusively available with rear-wheel drive.
Adaptive air suspension is available as an alternative to the standard steel spring suspension if so desired. The new model can be recognised by the lettering “diesel” on the front doors. The Panamera Diesel costs 80,183 euro in Germany including VAT and country-specific equipment and will be available for delivery from August 2011.

Vorsteiner V-PT Edition Porsche Panamera

The Panamera V-PT is the latest program from Vorsteiner. All of the V-PT aerodynamic components are made using carbon fiber that is finished off in a multiple layers of UV inhibiting automotive clear laquer.
The body kit includes a V-PT front bumper cover which incorporates a splitter and a removable carbon fiber insert. If there is ever an instance in which the splitter is damaged, the insert can be removed and replaced. An optional carbon fiber duct is available to channel air into the factory radiator and intercoolers.
Furthermore, you will spot new side skirts, a “ducktail” rear spoiler and a rear bumper. The rear bumper combines three major components. The first one is two vertical ventilation slits that aid in extracting heat from the exhaust system and trapped air behind the wheel arches. The second component is the carbon fiber diffuser. The final key design to the rear bumper cover is a newly developed sub-panel which replaces the factory felt unit.
On the technical side the US tuner offers a V-PT sports exhaust system. The V-PT exhaust is constructed from a choice of stainless steel or titanium, the latter boasts a weight savings of up to 40 percent over the stock exhaust system.
The V-PT package is available now for all 2010-2012 Porsche Panamera Turbo through authorized Vorsteiner dealers worldwide.
