There are 13 trim combination options available for customers along with four-zone automatic air conditioning and seats that are power adaptable.
Airbags for both driver and front passenger keep them safe as well as curtain airbags together with side and knee airbags on the front seats and optional side airbags for the rear passengers. The latest Porsche Panamera is the first in the brand to include a high-end audio system created in partnership with the German Burmester.
