An ultra luxury sedan that will embarrass many hardcore sportscars, say hello to the ludicrously talented Porsche Panamera Turbo
Porsche is, among many things, one of the leaders in the automobile industry when it comes to sheer engineering. Their cars do things that defy the logic of what should be possible. Case in point, the previous Panamera, a giant of a luxury saloon that was convinced it was a sportscar. The way that car went around corners was shocking, 1.9 tonnes of metal has no business changing direction that rapidly! But there was a problem –– the Panamera was a striking car but that humpback rear wasn’t easy on the eyes. It certainly wasn’t what you’d call a pretty machine. Thankfully, that’s changed with the all-new model.
