Posted by Florin Muna on December 10th, 2023

Porsche has revealed a special edition of the new Panamera Turbo E-Hybrid at the world premiere of the third-generation model in Shanghai. The Panamera Turbo Sonderwunsch is a one-off car that showcases the customization possibilities of the Sonderwunsch program. This program allows customers to create their personal dream sports car with the help of Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur's division specializing in tailor-made solutions.

A unique exterior design with real gold

The Panamera Turbo Sonderwunsch stands out with its exclusive color design and high-quality craftsmanship. The car is painted in a two-tone finish centered around the specially created color tone Leblon Violet Metallic. This violet color tone has a hint of chestnut and fades into a solid black in the lower third of the car. The doorsills and front and rear spoiler lips are also in solid black.

The car features tinted headlights, taillights, and windows for a sleek look, and the tailpipes are in Bronzite. The clear coat of the Sonderwunsch Panamera Turbo contains flakes vaporized with real gold, creating a premium look with depth effect. The exterior also features pinstripes in the also newly developed color Avium Metallic with an integrated Sonderwunsch logo. The face of the 21-inch center-locking rims and the frames of the side windows are also finished in Avium Metallic.

The craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident in the meticulously finished logos on the rear. The Porsche logo is in Turbonite Metallic, a new color that matches the hybrid badges on the front fenders. The Panamera Turbo E-Hybrid logo is in Bronzite, while the Sonderwunsch logo is in Avium Metallic.

A personal touch to the interior

The interior of the Panamera Turbo Sonderwunsch has been deliberately left unfinished until next year. This is to demonstrate how flexibly and precisely Porsche can fulfill the wishes of the customers as a vision of their dream car. Experts from the Style Porsche and Exclusive Manufaktur units with the highest level of personalization will design the interior.

The Sonderwunsch program offers a broad range of options for the interior, such as custom color and material choices, individual accents and decors, and special equipment and features. Customers can also request one-of-a-kind solutions that are not available in the standard range. The Sonderwunsch program includes consultation, planning, and expert execution of the customer’s preferences.

A powerful and efficient hybrid drivetrain

The Panamera Turbo Sonderwunsch is based on the new Panamera Turbo E-Hybrid, which is the top model of the third-generation Panamera lineup. The car combines a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with an electric motor to deliver a system output of 690 hp and a system torque of 642 lb-ft. The car can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 3.0 seconds and reach a top speed of 196 mph.

The car also features a 17.9 kWh battery that enables an electric range of up to 31 miles. The battery can be charged in 2.5 hours with a 7.2 kW charger. The car has a hybrid-specific all-wheel-drive system that distributes the power between the front and rear axles. The car also has a sporty chassis with adaptive air suspension, Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control Sport, and Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus.

The new Panamera Turbo E-Hybrid offers a balance of performance and efficiency, as well as a high level of comfort and luxury. The car has a spacious and elegant cabin with four individual seats, a 12.3-inch touchscreen display, a Burmester 3D High-End Surround Sound System, and a head-up display. The car also has a comprehensive suite of driver assistance systems, such as Porsche InnoDrive, Lane Change Assist, Night Vision Assist, and ParkAssist.

A vision of a customer’s dream car

The Panamera Turbo Sonderwunsch is a unique car that shows the potential of the Sonderwunsch program. It is a vision of a customer’s dream car that reflects their personal taste and style. The car is a testament to the craftsmanship and expertise of Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur, which can create highly individual and exclusive sports cars for the most discerning customers.

The Sonderwunsch program is available for all Porsche models, including the 911, the Taycan, the Cayenne, and the Macan. Customers can directly contact their local Porsche dealer or the Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur to start the Sonderwunsch process. The program is subject to availability, feasibility, and legal and technical requirements.

The Panamera Turbo Sonderwunsch is a one-off car that will not be sold to any customer. It is a source of inspiration for those who want to make their own very personal dream of a highly individual Panamera a reality. The car is a statement of modern luxury and a masterpiece of automotive art. @via Car Division.
