The car is built on the company's latest MSB architecture, which stands for "Modularer Standard-Baukasten". This platform is particularly designed for a front-engine, rear wheel drive layout, which is standard now across the new Panamera range. Powering this luxury sports saloon is a 4.0 Litre V8 petrol engine which will belt out 543 bhp and 770 Nm. The motor comes mated to a new eight-speed PDK transmission that propels the new Panamera Turbo to do a 0-100 kmph sprint in 3.8 seconds (3.6 s with Sport Chrono Package).
