TechArt's Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Is A 750-HP Super Sedan

Because the Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid clearly needs more power.

Thanks to its twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 and an electric motor producing a combined 680 hp and 626 lb-ft of torque, the Porsche Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid is already one of the fastest sedans on the planet, capable of hitting 0-62 mph in just 3.4 seconds and a top speed of 192 mph. But that hasn’t stopped TechArt from giving it an impressive power boost.
The tuner’s new power kit for the Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid increases the power output from 680 hp to 759 hp, while peak torque has been raised to 722 lb-ft. Thanks to this increased horsepower, the super sedan will now do the sprint in 3.2 seconds and top out at 196 mph.

Other modifications include the valve-controlled TechArt exhaust, which the tuner says delivers a deeper and more powerful sound. Customers will also get four titanium end tubes with the carbon fiber jacket.

TechArt’s GrandGT also gives the Panamera a more aggressive appearance, thanks to a carbon fiber hood, extended wheel arches, contoured side skirts and a significantly wider track. At the rear, repositioned reflectors and a large diffuser also contribute to the aggressive design. Rounding off the exterior changes are 22-inch Formula V wheels with a unique multi-spoke design which can also be fitted to the Cayenne.

Inside, the tuned Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid has seats with colored stitching matching the exterior. The cabin also features a sport steering wheel with Acid Green colored drive mode switch to remind you that you’re driving a hybrid. Segments of the steering wheel can also be customized with leather, Alcantara, or carbon fiber, while illuminated door entry guards with Techart lettering and aluminium pedals complete the interior.

TechArt’s Porsche Cayenne Has A Cozy Cabin Designed By A Couch Maker

Naturally, it’s also been given a significant power boost.

TechArt is no stranger to tuning Porsches. After giving the 911 Carrera T the power it deserves, the aftermarket tuner has given the Cayenne a significant power boost, a more aggressive exterior, and a more luxurious interior. To enhance the exterior, TechArt has added a two-piece front spoiler that makes the Cayenne appear lower to the ground, while a carbon-fiber hood with air inlets give the SUV a sporty appearance.

The aerodynamic package also includes “a powerful looking” rear apron with a diffuser and a roof spoiler lip. TechArt’s Porsche Cayenne rides on the tuner’s new 22-inch Formula V wheels with multi-spoke design.

Under the hood, TechArt’s Techtronic engine mapping boosts the Cayenne’s output from 542 hp to 631 hp, resulting in supercar levels of performance. 0-62 mph takes 3.7 seconds before the modified Cayenne tops out at 186 mph. The SUV’s V8 roar also sounds deeper and more powerful thanks to the valve-controlled exhaust system.

While the improved performance is commendable, it’s the luxurious interior that stands out. TechArt has collaborated with couch manufacturer Rolf Benz to achieve “inimitable seating comfort.” The upholstery is made of Rolf Benz’s high-quality natural virgin wool used on the company's living room couches, which TechArt claims is “hard-wearing, breathable and dirt resistant.”

Color-matched leather piping, threads, and lacquer complement the upholstery, along with Rolf Benz patterned cloth on the underside of the headrests, and a roof lining made entirely of black virgin wool. Even the footwell is covered in fine leather with exquisite floor mats. As a finishing touch, TechArt says the Cayenne's bicolor paintwork, shown in photos in champagne metallic and black, will be coordinated with the Rolf Benz interiors to create a "harmonious look”.
