While we do know the big stuff, especially the situation about the new power output figures of the twin-turbocharged 4.8 liter V8 but the great stuff doesn’t end there.

The 550 horsepower comes with 553 lb-ft of torque and up to 590 if you go for the over-boost function.

So what if you have four doors and a four wheel drive system, with this sort of performance and a launch control system, Porsche’s Panamera can get from 0 to 62 in just 3.8 seconds and it won’t stop accelerating till it hits a dramatic 191 mph.

But this monster of a supersports sedan Porsche can move as fast as lightning but there’s more it can do. The performance comes with a little bit of reasonableness.

The Germans claim that the Porsche Panamera Turbo S can still do 25 miles per gallon so it won’t kill your wallet that bad.

Actually the Porsche Panamera Turbo S can still destroy a man’s checking accounts because it costs 167.076 euro in Germany and will be available starting in June.
