It was time for Porsche to change their V8 normally aspirated engines and turbochargers with a V6. A 3.6 liter V6 engine with direct fuel injection, to be more exact, which will be available on Panamera. It cranks out 300 horsepower and 400Nm of torque, which is really impressive for an engine that’s under 4.0l and with no tuning. 

The V6 engine will be mated to Porsche’s PDK gearbox and will also include Auto Start/Stop, allowing 30.4mpg for the Panamera and 29.4mpg for the four wheel drive Panamera 4. Both models are EU5 emissions compliant.

Apart from the beautiful engine, both the interior and the exterior look very good, so once again Porsche has done a great job. Didn’t expect otherwise.
