2024 Porsche Panamera interior unveiled with screens everywhere
The interior of the 2024 Porsche Panamera has been shown before of the formal launch of the new sedan on November 24. The Panamera will have one more generation with petrol and plug-in hybrid engine choices before going electric. The new model's interior is clearly influenced by Porsche's electric Taycan, featuring three screens and the "Driver Experience," which puts the driver at the centre and creates the perfect balance between analogue and digital elements.
The new Panamera has pretty much left the dashboard with a flowing centre console design as is. What has changed though is what sits in that dashboard. The new Panamera has a 12.6-inch digital instrument cluster, a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, and a 10.9-inch passenger display as an option. If desired, an optional head-up display may be fitted to augment the driver's screen, providing a fourth monitor to gaze at.
There are fewer physical controls than previously, and many climate-control functions appear to have been relocated to the touchscreen; nonetheless, several classic rocker buttons for air temperature and possibly fan speed remain. The air vents may be adjusted electrically, and the gear selector has been relocated from the centre console to a toggle button next to the steering wheel.
Porsche's phoney turn-key starter has also been replaced with a stop/start button.
The remainder of the inside is contemporary and appealing, with lots of ambient lighting and trims to remind you that this is still a luxurious Porsche and not a 911 focused on weight saving. The crimson seats and door trim in the displayed interior are made of materials other than typical leather. The two rear-seat passengers can also have their own digital display, which is attached to the console that divides the sitting space.
The official unveiling of Porsche's latest Panamera is scheduled for November 24, so we won't have to wait long for all the details. We anticipate a variety of powertrains, including gasoline and hybrid alternatives, topped by a Turbo E-Hybrid powertrain.
