Template:InfoboxCar2The Porsche Panamera Turbo is a four-door grand tourer manufactured by Porsche. It boasts a 4.8L twin-turbocharged V8, which delivers 493bhp at 6,000rpm. The Panamera is a direct adversary to other European luxury cars such as the Aston Martin Rapide and Maserati Quattroporte.
The name Panamera is deduced from the Carrera Panamericana racing series, where Porsche earned many class wins.
The Panamera Turbo received a facelift in 2013 along with other Panamera line-ups. A facelift of the more powerful Turbo S variant followed in 2014.
Need for Speed: World
The Porsche Panamera Turbo was made available in Need for Speed: World on March 28th, 2012 as a tier 2 car. Since August 22nd, 2012, it has been featured as a B class car.
The Panamera Turbo was already found within the game directory of Need for Speed: World before making an official appearance in the game. These files were removed for unknown reasons after a patch was applied shortly after the title's initial release. The files were later reapplied after another patch on March 20th, 2012.
The Panamera Turbo has a simplistic and reliable handling capability despite its body style. When using nitrous, the car gains a moderate speed boost. The Panamera has powerful acceleration, although the A class variant does appear to lack in this field compared to similarly ranging cars. It is capable of reaching a top speed of 161 mph (259 km/h).
Players can use the Panamera Turbo in multiplayer matches successfully because of its handling. Its acceleration is competitive within B class but might lack in higher classes. Still, it is a valuable choice for pursuits events, as the Panamera has decent durability.
