Porsche hosted an event for the international auto press.
During this event, 42 auto tests were conducted using the new Porsche Panamera
S E-Hybrid. The total distance covered during these tests was of 1200
kilometers and the average fuel consumption was recorded at just 4.4 liters per
100 kilometers.
The best result of the hybrid Porsche Panamera, the luxury
class hybrid car with a power outlet recharging mechanism, was registered on
the racing track. Thus, the Porsche Panamera registered an average fuel
consumption of only 2.8 liters per 100 kilometers.
These results proved that, in day to day usage, it is very
likely that someone driving this car will obtain similar fuel consumption
results as those registered during the NEDC tests, which were of 3.1 liters per
100 kilometers. The performance was achieved by four series models of the
Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid, in each of them being three or four people, the
climate system was on and having accelerated up to 230 km/h on a section of
highway of the course.
The test circuit had a total length of 28.7 kilometers and
included a journey around the city of Hockenheim
along with 6.5 kilometers of driving in the city, 9.2 kilometers of driving in
the rural area along with 13 kilometers of German highway – no speed
restrictions on some parts.
An important part of obtaining such results is the 9.4 kWh
lithium ion battery. The Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid has a range of 36
kilometers using the electric engine alone. These figures were confirmed during
real life tests, the car registering 0.0 liters/ 100 kilometers and 0 carbon
dioxide emissions for a 30 kilometers range at an average speed of 54 km/h.
Thus, these real world results are better than those achieved at the NEDC tests
that were completed on the test probe with an average speed of only 33 km/h.
The Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid has a combined total power
of 416 horsepower being able to go from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.5 seconds and
managing to achieve a maximum speed of 270 km/h. The new Porsche Panamera S
Hybrid will be available starting with the end of the month July 2013.
