The original Porsche Panamera launched in 2009. It’s never been quite as controversial as the Cayenne SUV was, but like the Cayenne, it presented a uniquely Porsche take on the luxury saloon market, being among the best big four-seaters to drive, and of course having an image that few other brands can touch.
The Panamera hasn’t escaped depreciation though, which means there is significant money to be saved by picking up a pre-owned example. While we can’t quite say there’s a Panamera for every budget, you may be surprised how accessible some are, and a choice of engines, body styles, and options means there’s huge variety to the cars out there. Read on to find out more about the Panamera.
It should come as no surprise that the Porsche Panamera is a great car. The German sports car manufacturer doesn’t tend to churn out disappointing vehicles, and while the Panamera has since been overshadowed slightly by the sleek electric Taycan, it’s still great to drive, has greater interior space than its electric sibling, and still drives as a Porsche should, despite its size and weight.
It’s available in both fastback and estate forms (the latter dubbed Sport Turismo), and while we’re concentrating on the regular car here, pretty much everything applies to the estate too. That means a choice of petrol and hybrid powertrains (pre Sport Turismo, diesel was also available), and the quickest models can give supercars a run for their money in a straight line.
The Panamera is great in the corners too. Most are all-wheel drive, for great traction, some have four-wheel steering to help with manoeuvrability, and all are well balanced, making them satisfying to thread along a country road. Being luxury cars, they’re also well suited to covering hundreds of miles on motorways too. Interior quality is among the best in the class too.
That class includes the likes of the BMW M5 and Audi RS6 and RS7, though look lower down the range and more conventional versions of the 5-Series, E-Class, Mercedes CLS, and the Audis are all potential alternatives too - while the Panamera’s prices both new and used overlap with big luxury limos like the BMW 7-Series and Mercedes S-Class, which prioritise space and comfort over the Porsche’s slightly more sporting focus.
The Panamera range is pretty talented across the board, and even the most mild-mannered versions have performance that wouldn’t have looked out of place on a 911 not so long ago. The GTS is probably a highlight of the range for keen drivers, getting a V8 engine but not the extra weight and complication of hybrid tech, and the standard sports exhaust gives it the best exhaust note of any Panamera too. Don’t discount the E-Hybrids, which get spectacular economy if you can regularly plug them in, but don’t discount the older diesel models either, which are still hard to beat for all-round economy.
Conveniently, Porsche’s trim levels all correspond to the engine and drivetrain of each trim line (or, if you like, engines and drivetrains correspond to trim levels). This means that generally speaking, the more powerful a Panamera is, the more kit you’ll get - though the original owner dabbling in Porsche’s extensive options list means that some cars may have quite different features to others.

The Panamera is a high-performance luxury saloon, meaning all variants are priced comfortably above the government’s luxury car tax threshold of £40,000. This in turns results in a £600 annual bill for the 2024/2025 tax year, or £10 less if you get one of the hybrids. This figure then falls to a lower number from the car’s seventh year on the road. Panameras registered prior to April 2017 are taxed instead based on CO2 emissions.
Every model in the current Panamera range sits in insurance group 50, the maximum rating (though even cars within group 50 will have different insurance costs, so a Turbo S E-Hybrid is likely to cost more than an entry-level car).
