The 2025 Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid joins the line-up. It’s the fourth of four hybrids for the 3rd generation four-door. The non-hybrid GTS also arrives.
Porsche recently revealed two new trims for the third generation Panamera: The 2025 Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid and Panamera GTS. These two now make seven trims in total for the latest sedan from the sports car brand.
Late last year, the Stuttgart brand revealed the third-generation Panamera beginning with the 2024 Panamera and Panamera 4 as well as the Turbo E-Hybrid trim. But, at that time, Porsche also promised to eventually offer four hybrid trims. Since then, we saw the 2025 Porsche Panamera 4 and 4S E-Hybrid.
A while ago I drove the 2021 Porsche Panamera 4S E-Hybrid, which was new for that model year. I really enjoyed it. See my video review below.
The Turbo S E Hybrid first arrived in the U.S. for the 2018 model year (see my review on it for Autoweek). Porsche updated the Turbo S E-Hybrid a few years later, stuffing in a bit more power. Now we get this new one, with more power again—a lot more.
The top-of-the-line third generation Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid includes a powertrain that delivers 771 HP and 737 lb.-ft of torque. Compared to the last Turbo S, that’s an increase of 81 HP and 96 lb-ft of torque.

The Turbo S E-Hybrid starts with the same twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8 found in the non-S Turbo E-hybrid but swaps out twin-scroll for single scroll turbos that build more boost. It’s attached to an eight-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission with an electric motor housed inside.
The V8 itself makes 591 HP. The electric motor produces 187 HP on its own. Supplying electricity to the electric motor is the same 25.9-kWh battery pack as the other Panamera’s. And the latest Cayenne hybrids for that matter.
Altogether, 0-60 MPH takes but 2.8 seconds, which is 0.2 seconds quicker than before. And the Turbo S E-Hybrid will eventually reach 202 MPH.
Stylistically speaking, the Turbo trims also stand out with a distinct rear bumper and a front fascia adorned in the selected body color. Additionally, Porsche finished the tailpipes in bronze.
For the chassis, in addition to what the third-generation Panamera offers generally, which I cover in my first video, standard equipment on the Turbo S E-Hybrid includes the Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB). Finally, you see massive, center-locking 21-inch forged alloy wheels at all four corners.

If you want more performance similar to what Porsche used to reset the “fastest executive class sedan with a combustion and hybrid engine” Nordschleife lap record.” The brand will sell you an aero kit to go with the Panamera. It offers carbon fiber aero pieces that produce an additional 132 lbs of downforce at 124 mph. And more mechanical grip from Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires.
The Turbo S E-Hybrid also gets Porsche Active Ride suspension as standard, which uses a 400-volt powered hydraulic pump to counter act natural chassis movements for an extremely flat body, even when hustling through corners or slamming on the gas or brakes. That’s of course, in addition to things like rear-axle steering.

The Panamera GTS on the other hand is relatively old-school. Its engine is also a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8, but in the GTS it makes “just” 493 HP. The GTS will reach 60 mph from rest in 3.6 seconds and eventually will hit 188 mph if you keep your right foot pinned to the firewall.

You also ride 0.4-in lower to the ground compared to the standard Panamera and get Porsche Torque vectoring plus as part of the package. Like the Turbo S, the GTS gets massive, center-locking 21-inch alloy wheels at all four corners.
Similar to all GTS badged Porsches across the line-up, the Panamera gets quite of lot of dark tint and black throughout the exterior and interior. But the brake calipers stand out in a bright red.

You can order both the Turbo S E-hybrid and the GTS now, but do not expect them to arrive before early 2025. And, neither are cheap. The 2025 Porsche Panamera GTS starts at $156,195 and the 2025 Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid requires at least $228,495 to leave your bank account.
There you have it, now three non-hybrid and four-hybrid trims of the third-generation Porsche Panamera. Clearly, electrified models are proliferating the brand’s line-up.
But, so far at least, Porsche appears to be taking a methodical approach. Largely using hybrid and electric power to add performance wherever it can. I love to see this approach.
Porsche went full electric with its new Macan SUVs
