What is the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers for the Panamera?
2 Answers
The Panamera's fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is 9.3L/100km. Below are specific details about the Panamera: 1. Space: Drawing heavily from the design of its sibling models, the Panamera measures approximately 16 feet in length, providing ample legroom for four passengers. Like other Porsche models, the new Panamera features a traditional monocoque body structure, though some reports suggest engineers may use aluminum materials to reduce weight. 2. Powertrain: The Panamera is equipped with a 4.8-liter V8 engine, which incorporates direct injection technology and cylinder deactivation, delivering at least 400 horsepower. With turbocharging, this figure could rise to 520 horsepower. Following the release of the V8 version, Porsche plans to introduce a base V6 model, powered by a 3.6-liter V6 engine from the Volkswagen Group. This engine will be modified into a hybrid powertrain.
Driving the Panamera for my daily commute is my routine, with fuel consumption typically around 12 to 15 liters per 100 kilometers in the city. During peak traffic hours, it can spike up to 18 liters, but on the highway, it's much easier to keep it between 8 to 10 liters. The car has strong power and quick acceleration, so naturally, the fuel consumption is higher, but the driving feel is superb. I recommend driving steadily and avoiding unnecessary throttle inputs, along with using good engine oil and regular throttle body cleaning, which can help save some fuel. Temperature also has a significant impact; turning on the AC in summer increases fuel consumption quickly. Overall, it's not a fuel-efficient car, but for the driving pleasure it offers, it's worth it. I make a habit of recording my fuel usage, and on average, it's a little over 12 liters per month, which is within expectations.
