The New Porsche Panamera Has Been Leaked And It Actually Looks Pretty Decent
With the once ungainly Cayenne being subtle restyled until the point it now doesn’t make people physically sick, the Panamera has been left as the ugly duckling of the Porsche range. Until now, that is: the new version of Stuttgart’s luxury saloon has appeared in these leaked images, and for the first time, it’s actually pretty decent looking.
Sure, it’s not drop-dead gorgeous, but it’s a massive improvement on the old one. The proportions look better, while at the front and rear you can see a few welcome nods to the new 718 Boxster.
We can expect a range of all-new V6 and V8 engines (the presence of Porsche’s new 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 in the Turbo model is confirmed in the image above), plus a Hybrid Panamera joining the ranks at some stage.
What do you think of Porsche’s new Panamera? A big improvement on the old one, or still a bit of a pig? Let us know in the comments!

In the first pic of the article it does look like a 718, it does look like it a lot.
It looks a bit like that 996 gen 4 door concept thing
989? I made a post about it.
I never actually hated the way the Panamera looked, although this is an improvement!
The rear reminds me a little bit of a tesla
I was thinking the same
718 front
911 rear
=nwe Panamera
A stretched 911 with a 718 front end swap is not a bad starting point honestly.
am i the only one that loves all generations of the cayenne and panamera? the porsche 928 is the only porsche that got a proper beating with the ugly stick if you ask me
I agree with you on the 928, I do not like it one bit!
For me 928 is one of the best porsches. If you compare it wirh other cars with that era its miles ahead in every way. And It looks great, If you ask me. The only good thing about panamera and cayenne is that they got Porsche through crysis, when the sales went down. They were made for rich non-carguys and drug dealers
The 928 is very modern looking for a 70’s design. I personally think they are very pretty cars.
Better…
That’s… actually moving into Jaguar and Aston Martin good looks territory.
Stop with your foul mouth
You seriously think Aston and Jag look good?
Plus 2 doors
incest?
Still related to an ‘Inside-out monkey’, Jeremy Clarkson?
