The Porsche 2019 Porsche Panamera GTS has all the features you really want and none of them

It's always a good day when Porsche decides to choose the GTS-ify. Today, Porsche has announced that the Panamera would be next on the list with the introduction of the Porsche Panamera GTS and GTS Sport Turbo.

The GTS specification has always been an excellent choice for those looking for a sporty car at a reasonable price. You get all the interesting elements that would be optional on other models in addition to a setting worthy of the race, but it's still cheaper than buying a high-end sports car.

In the Panamera GTS 2019 lineup, we are looking at a four-liter, twin-turbo V8 engine capable of producing an impressive 453 horsepower and 457 lb-ft of torque. Compare that to the previous Panamera GTS, which had a naturally aspirated engine, which produced 13 fewer horsepower and 73 lb-ft less torque. Not a bad improvement. This extra boost means that the Panamera GTS and GTS Sport Turismo can go from 0 to 100 km / h in 3.9 seconds, reaching respectively 181 and 179 mph.

If you look at this model, you will find that it is 10 mm lower than the other Panamera models, but Porsche's standard adaptive air suspension has been recalibrated to reflect this evolution. Since they expect you to push these cars a little harder than your daily driver, they are also equipped with more powerful brakes than other Panameras.

In addition to that, Panameras GTS come with a variety of options and different packages to suit all your desires. It comes with a Sport Chrono Package, Sport Design Package and Sport Exhaust System, as well as 20-inch Panamera Design Black Wheels and a heated sports steering wheel.

These will also be the first Panamera models with a head-up display. The Porsche press release mentions many fancy terms, but you'll be able to configure your options and choose different colors to best suit your driving preferences.

The Panamera GTS Sport Turismo is presented as an excellent daily driver. Therefore, for those who like a little more finesse during their commute, keep your eyes open.

You can start placing your orders now, but models will not start at dealers until the second half of 2019. The Panamera GTS starts at $ 128,300 and the Sport Turismo at $ 6,200. Dear, yes, but you can never really put a price on a damn good car. I'm going to take a green, thank you.
