In the realm of luxury vehicles, the Porsche Panamera GTS has long been the go-to choice for enthusiasts craving the exhilarating drive of a V8 engine.

However, the third-generation Panamera 4S E-Hybrid is redefining allure. If the GTS is a muscular “strongman,” the 4S E-Hybrid is a “technologist” with superior intelligence, tailored for those who appreciate finesse and cutting-edge engineering.

Performance-wise, the 4S E-Hybrid boasts a combined output of 536 horsepower, surpassing the GTS while offering a more accessible starting price. Replacing the iconic V8 roar is a twin-turbocharged 2.9L V6 engine paired with a robust electric motor. Despite a slight reduction in total power compared to its predecessor, upgrading the electric motor from 134 to 187 horsepower delivers instantaneous responsiveness. Accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.5 seconds, this hybrid system preserves Porsche’s sporty DNA without compromise.

The pinnacle of innovation here is the Porsche Active Ride suspension—an exclusive feature for hybrid models unavailable on the GTS. Utilizing electro-hydraulic pumps to regulate damper pressure, it proactively adjusts the vehicle’s body in response to road conditions. In standard mode, it lifts the nose during braking or leans into corners to counteract G-forces. Switching to Sport mode, it maintains an astonishingly flat stance, neutralizing road imperfections for a surreal driving experience unattainable by conventional suspensions.

Porsche also upgraded the battery from 17.9 kWh to 21.8 kWh, extending the electric-only range. Real-world testing reveals remarkable fuel efficiency when regularly charged, thanks to seamless synergy between the combustion engine and electric power. However, this economy hinges on user habits; depleted batteries revert the vehicle to conventional gasoline operation.

While fully equipped, the Panamera 4S E-Hybrid approaches $160,000 (4.2 billion VND) for the 2026 model, it’s a worthy investment for those seeking engineering excellence. Beyond luxury transportation, this vehicle exemplifies how hybrid technology enhances driving dynamics and comfort to unprecedented levels. For aficionados of mechanical and electronic innovation, this is the ultimate daily-drive Porsche Panamera.
