Porsche Panamera: New Gallery with 44 High-Res Photos including Interior, Plus Performance Specs and Pricing

Porsche's controversially styled Panamera sports sedan continues to be revealed with a new batch of official pictures that give us our first look of the car's interior while the German automaker also released pricing and performance figures for the naturally aspirated and turbocharged V8 versions. The first thing that captured our attention in the Panamera's cabin is of course the upper and lower part of the centre console which is adorned with myriad of buttons. Its styling seems conspicuously similar to a Vertu cell phone.

Buyers can choose from a total of 13 color and material combinations including four bi-colour options teaming up wherever required with seven optional interior trim finish styles including exclusive materials such as Carbon and Olive Nature open-pore wood

The luggage compartment capacity in the Panamera S and 4S is 445 litres or 15.6 cu ft, while in the Turbo, 432 litres or 15.1 cu ft. With the rear seat backrests tilted down, luggage capacity increases to a sufficient 1,250 liters or 43.8 cu ft.

When the Panamera hits Porsche's showrooms in Septemeber, it will be initially available with V8 power units only, featuring either rear or all-wheel drive. The entry-level Panamera S which will be priced in Germany from €94,575 ($122,300 US) is powered by a naturally aspirated 4.8-litre V8 developing 400HP. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels by a 6-speed manual gearbox or an option, by Porsche's seven-speed double-clutch PDK transmission.

The four-wheel-drive Panamera 4S features the same 4.8-litre V8 developing 400HP With the double-clutch gearbox, the 4S can accelerate to 100 km/h in 5.0 seconds, and has a top speed of 282 km/h or 175 mph.
