Porsche is expanding the model range by introducing a new version of the Gran Turismo; the Panamera 4 will be making its world debut at the Beijing Motor Show on April 23 and the first UK deliveries will start in June.

Powered by a brand-new Porsche-designed 3.6-liter V6 featuring Direct Fuel Injection developing maximum output of 300 hp and peak torque of 400 Nm, this ride also comes with active all-wheel drive. Equipped with the Porsche-Doppelkupplungsgetriebe (PDK) double-clutch gearbox – which includes Auto Start and Stop – the Panamera 4 delivers 30.4mpg on the combined cycle and CO₂ emissions are an impressive 218g/km.

As with all other Porsche models, this one includes Bi-Xenon headlights, front and rear ParkAssist, heated front seats, tire pressure monitoring, automatic dimming rear view mirrors, Porsche Communication Management with touch-screen satellite navigation and audio controls and cruise control.

Panamera 4 is priced at $105,000; there is a lower version – Panamera – which is $97,000.
