Top notch review as usual bro. Just a pointer to add some polish, maybe work on an intro and an outro. It can even be super basic like your logo enlarged and rotating for 1sec Just a thought!
I’m obsessed with this car, I just would love to see it at night time. Especially with the interior, because Mercedes Benz looks like a spaceship with their ambient lighting
Eddie, your videos are getting better each day man! 👍🏼 Very professional and spot on. Clean, honest reviews. A lot of your subscribers, like me, appreciate the fact that you’re a very down to earth and a simple guy. Keep up the good work. You’re one of my favorite RUclipsr now. 😊
Loved the review. I wanted the Turbo S E hybrid but opted for the fully loaded Turbo instead. Makes a great daily. May let it go for the new RS7 once it finally becomes available...
This generation Panamera is soooo smooth on the road. Ive test driven the 7 series, S class and this Panamera and this car is around 70% as smooth as the S class yet its like 300% sportier than the 7 series. You know the feeling when you put a sedan into Sport mode and you feel like you kinda have to convince yourself that its been stiffer and faster? Youll never ever need to do that with the Panamera. Its sporty when you need it to be and its so comfy when you wanna relax. I agree with you its the best all around vehicle money can buy today.
I’ve always stated that the rs6 avant is my dream daily, not considering the prices. But the gran turismo is actually super sweet... by far the only competitor (to me personally) to the rs6. Guess I’ll take both! Dreaming is free..
With that extra 600 lbs of weight in the Panamera Turbo S e-Hybrid it makes me wonder how quick a normal Panamera Turbo would be if it was upgraded to 650 horsepower. There’s a few tuning companies out there that have tuned available to push the Turbo up to or over 650 horsepower. Without that extra weight it should make them very very quick.
It drives me crazy when I hear everyone making such a big deal about the new Panameras extending rear spoiler. The first generation Panamera had the same thing. Did nobody realize that?
Unless you’re looking for the slight added fuel economy the regular turbo is the better car. You can buy a regular turbo and with nothing more than an ECU tune have more power than the Turbo S e-Hybrid without the weight gains.
It's the electric motors' low-end torque that yields the quick 0-60 times. An ECU tune (and downpipe/exhaust, even) on the regular 4.0tt won't be able to match that 0-60 even if the peak torque number is higher.
Joseph De Kroon the electric motor only combines to add 59 lbs ft of torque when running together with the gasoline engine for a total of 626 ft lbs compared to the gasoline engines 567 ft lbs. Not a huge advantage which is why the Turbo S E-Hybrid only has a two tenths if a second faster acceleration time than the Turbo. A regular Turbo weighs over 700 lbs less and with a slight boost would easily outperform the Hybrid Turbo S. Vivid Racing has an ECU tune alone that raises the regular Turbo horsepower by 138 hp and 200 ft-lbs of torque, making the Panamera Turbo output around 680 horsepower (similar to Turbo S E-Hybrid) and 770 ft-lbs of torque (150 more than Turbo S E-Hybrid). That’s just with the ECU tune and then consider it weighs 700 lbs less. Personally unless you want the electric only option I think the regular Turbo would be the better option. The biggest downside of the Turbo S is that 700 lbs of added weight.
Hey Eddie great job again showcasing this car! In my opinion its hard to look at these ultra expensive cars for the masses the same after being exposed to the likes of the tesla model 3 and the model s as well. I know your keen to what even a hybrid bmw i8 is capable of and in my opinion if bmw had just offered an all electric variant of it for the same price or even more affordable which we all know they have to be now with tesla crushing sales on sedans, with comparable range and performance the i8 would be a top pick no doubt and would be moving more units. What do you think?
I would totally agree with you but for the fact that a friend of mine just bought one and I got to drive it. This car has more features than I could have imagined, even more than were in this review. I was able to use the launch feature and didn’t even realize I was well over 100 mph while feeling completely in control the entire time.
It felt much more premium than the RS7, it's hard to exactly quantify it, but the overall impression I got was that it was a superior vehicle. A ton more technology, more performance and a nicer interior.
The new (yet-to-be-released) S8 has some crazy tech and is supposed to have this same drivetrain. I really wonder about tuneability with the hybrid platform, though. I'd think this is a car you don't mess with.
The Dodge Challenger Hellcat/RedEye needs all-wheel drive, adding all-wheel drive to the Hellcat/Red Eye would make this car both faster and safer at the same time!!😉
This isn’t faster than the BMW M5 & Mercedes E63S. Testing shows them both 0-60 at 2.8 sec. Porsche has only 2 seats in the back as well. Hardly worth the $.
@@otrz8009 Sorry... I meant M5 Competition. And all testing shows them to be equal (not the manufacturer stated numbers, but many road tests). Just can't justify the cost of the Porsche. Check out this device to measure 0-60 & 1/4 mile on this video: ruclips.net/video/2cb3hgZZRQc/видео.html
Very excited about this review! Really proud of how it turned out...and the subject matter is an awesome sedan!

Just a thought!
Definitely something I've wanted to do! Haven't had a chance to come up with anything
How do you not have 1 million subs! Your quality and content is far superior to many car you tubers with way more subs.
EddieX Don’t think I’ve ever seen you this happy about reviewing a car. I think this should be your next daily. Who needs a house anyways? 😂
Appreciate the support and kind words! Working towards it!
They finally started to make these look good
Agreed. So much better than the first generation haha
I think the first gen’s front was perfectly fine. It was the rear that was horrible.
@@usernamealreadytaken770 I agree!
That wing is sick!!!
It's so cool to watch deploy!!

Who needs lighting when the car is an actual spaceship

I bought the base model with a ton of options and it’s a true super Car! Panamera is the best sports sedan period!
It's definitely a great vehicle!
Just found your channel. Love supporting growing car channels like my own. I'll be seeing you around, Eddie!
Appreciate the support!
Wow very nice review !
Thank you! I'm very happy with how it turned out
opening song name ???
I wonder how easily he said " base price one hundred eighty five thousand dollars" and for me its even hard to imagine.
Sound wise, how does it compare to the previous 2015 panamera gts ( 4.8 v8 n.a)
Great review and looks sick in all black!
Thanks! Yeah it looks mean! I love how the acid green pops on the all black car
Glad to see more vids. Thanks eddie :]
Every Monday Wednesday and Friday is the goal! Appreciate the support man
honestly If i could afford one I would. Seems like an overall great package!
I wish that they would have put the flat six from the GT3 in the panamera

Potentially...., maybe....., if acceleration is all you're after. There are other advantages to the hybrid system that you won't get, though. ;-)
detroit?
Thanks Eddie good job. liking this length of video. grew up in B'ham familiar roads...
Thanks! Those roads were fun with this car haha
It drives me crazy when I hear everyone making such a big deal about the new Panameras extending rear spoiler. The first generation Panamera had the same thing. Did nobody realize that?
Agreed. It's crazy no one knew that...
I'll leave it to the universe 🙏🏾
Ladies and gentleman, EddieX presents the fastest, most sporty Volkswagen Beetle ever made.
Haha hilarious bro
Hey. This is at least stretched long wheelbase beetle. 😂
Long wheelbase? Never heard of it
The LWB model is called "Executive." Porsche Panamera Executive.

Gorgeous car. $200k is a little nutty though.
It is a ton of money, people who buy these new are seriously baller. This one is for sale for $180k!
LiteSwitch yea it’s retarded. And the fact that it’ll be worth less than half that in a few years is even more off putting.
I agree. I feel a Panamera GTS or Turbo with the same V8 but without the electric motors is a much better value.
For that kind of money you can look at some very nice machinery. But few that can seat four as comfortably.
I would totally agree with you but for the fact that a friend of mine just bought one and I got to drive it. This car has more features than I could have imagined, even more than were in this review. I was able to use the launch feature and didn’t even realize I was well over 100 mph while feeling completely in control the entire time.
Good editing! 👌
is it better than e63 amg wagon?
In my opinion, yes. But it costs significantly more
Great quality video! Thank you
Glad you appreciated it!
RS7 tops at 150-160k and this at ~200k. Is the extra 40-50k worth it, in your opinion? Prefer this over RS7?
It felt much more premium than the RS7, it's hard to exactly quantify it, but the overall impression I got was that it was a superior vehicle. A ton more technology, more performance and a nicer interior.
@@EddieX isn't there going to be a new rs7 coming out soon ? You should make a comparison vid . And a drag race if you can .
The new (yet-to-be-released) S8 has some crazy tech and is supposed to have this same drivetrain. I really wonder about tuneability with the hybrid platform, though. I'd think this is a car you don't mess with.
Great review
Nice review
Used base base model panamera's are becoming a great deal!
The Dodge Challenger Hellcat/RedEye needs all-wheel drive, adding all-wheel drive to the Hellcat/Red Eye would make this car both faster and safer at the same time!!😉
That's what the track hawk is for! Haha. An awd hellcat charger would be pretty awesome tho
Panamera gona hold thier value way better than BMW or AMG
That's a true statement. Porsches do much better in terms of depreciation
Wait it can do 0-60 in 2.8 ! wtf Porsche engineers are crazy !
Sweet mother of unicycling Jesus🤩🙃
Hahahahaha. Never heard that expression before
Dope man ! If I could buy one I could ;,)
Me too. This one is for sale for $180k! Essentially brand new
It’s the guy from the hangover
Meet up with vehicle virgins, i lowkey miss the duo.
The car is awesome but to me beside the price that is too high, i prefer 5-seater instead.
There's other Panamera models you can get for a lot lower price.
Because uberX 🚗
You can have it as a five seater.
Who else is sat in there panamera while watching this 🤗
He doesn’t like cvts yet he likes a hybrid Porsche.
I dislike the way a CVT drives. I like the way a 680 HP DCT Hybrid drives
EXCELLENT
Did you just say, 10 piston front calipers? Fucking 10?
TEN. did you see how massive they are haha. Gotta stop that 5200 lbs somehow
Сука я сам столько не стою , сколько эта машина стоит

This is actually faster than both the e63s and M5.

Meu sonho ter um ou ter todos eles eu vou profetizar q Deus vai me Abençoar
200k? *Bruh..*
Only 200K? I'll take two of them.
Buy this one, it's amazing
Holly shit you still exist??
You should put your pic in the channels profile!
他说话真快 不知道累不累
Should this kid that knows nothing be touching this?
tesla is faster
Yeah a Ludicrous mode might be faster 0-60 but as an over car/luxury vehicle, the Porsche is vastly superior. Inside of a Tesla is absurdly basic
Tesla sucks
