2011 Porsche Panamera

The Porsche Automobile Company is perhaps best known for its flagship car. Porsche has in recent years been diversifying it's line up of cars to remain competitive in the increasing luxury car market. To that end it has introduced the 2010 Porsche Panamera; it's first four door, four seater luxury sedan. The first difference between the new four door Panamera and the average two door model is that the Panamera is a front engine loaded sports vehicle, while the vast majority of two door models are rear engined.



This is a huge difference and puts the Panamera in direct competition with other luxury cars in this class like the Mercedes CLS. The four door Porsche is also of course much longer than the two door model at 195.7 inches to accommodate the extra two doors and backseats. It is even longer than the Cayenne SUV by 6.9 inches but will not be mistaken for anything but a sports car because of it's low standing profile at only 55.8 inches. The four door Panamera may be a luxury sedan but it definitely has the power of a two door sports car
