Porsche moves Panamera up to Platinum status

THE ALREADY ELEGANT AND EXCLUSIVE Porsche Panamera has just become even more so.

The Platinum Edition combines discreet Satin Gloss Platinum design features with an extended list of standard equipment over and above the regular models, it is a refined special edition of the Panamera, Panamera 4 and Panamera 4 E-Hybrid models.

Special wheels, black details and different tail lights

Specially painted details set the series apart

Highly sought-after design options are included as standard in the Platinum Edition. These include the Platinum-painted 21-inch Exclusive Design Sport wheels, Black sports tailpipes, side window trims in High-Gloss Black and Exclusive Design tail lights which all work to underscore the vehicle’s dynamic elegance. For the hybrid model, the on-board AC charger with 7.2 kW charging power comes additionally as standard.

The Panamera Platinum Edition is clearly identifiable from the outside by applications painted exclusively in platinum: air outlet trims behind the front wheels, the Porsche logo and model designation at the rear and, on the hybrid models, the ‘e-hybrid’ logo on the side. In addition, 20-inch Panamera Style wheels in Platinum are available as an option.

… and details like this analogue clock

An analogue clock rounds off an elegant overall package

The luxurious appointments continue in the interior: a GT sports steering wheel, heated rear seats, the brushed aluminium interior package in Black and the Porsche crest on the headrests. The interior also features exclusive distinguishing features: the door sill guards are made of brushed aluminium in Black and feature the Platinum Edition logo. In addition, all Platinum Edition models are equipped with an analogue clock in the dashboard as standard.

Porsche interiors are always superb
