③ Center Console Photos and Description

The center console is spacious. Like this.

Ah—

But it’s hard to convey the size (lol). By the way, since we have the Carbon Interior Package, this part changes from wood to carbon.

There are two cup holders of different sizes,

and we have the free option cup holder cover. When you lift the cover (it pops up immediately when you press the button), it looks like this.

(By the way, if you leave the cover closed for a while, quite a bit of dust and debris can accumulate underneath, so be careful)

The two cup holders have the front one slightly smaller, but coffee cups or 500ml bottles you’d commonly drink on drives fit just fine. Like this.

Next to the cup holders is a storage box that holds a decent amount.

The rear center console looks like this, with carbon in the middle because of the Carbon Interior Package,

and has switches for seat ventilation, with a small storage compartment above. (We didn’t install a rear-seat navigation system)

Opening the carbon section reveals cup holders and a cigarette lighter socket.

My kids sometimes play opening and closing this carbon part and occasionally pinch their fingers and cry (lol. But the gap is wide enough so it’s not serious).

④ Steering Wheel Photos and Description

The steering wheel looks like this. (I wonder if the option for the double-line marker at the top of the wheel was removed in the new model?) It has buttons for idling stop, volume mute, and other controls.

Because we have the Sport Chrono Package, there’s this stopwatch in the center.

⑤ Dashboard Photos and Description

The dashboard also turns carbon with the Carbon Interior Package (sorry it’s hard to see).

Opening it reveals this much storage.

Inside is a slot for an ETC card.

Next to it are slots for SD and SIM cards.

⑥ Door Photos and Description

The door handles are also carbon,

and of course the passenger and rear doors are carbon as well,

and when you open the door, the standard brushed aluminum front door sill guards (with model logo) show the “Panamera turbo” lettering.

I usually don’t look at this, so it was the first time I really stared at it (lol).

That’s basically an overview of the interior photos and features. However, this time I didn’t cover rear seat space or the feel of the seat ventilation, so I plan to write about those in a future article.

Still, shooting with a DSLR really makes a difference. Until now, I just took quick shots with my iPhone, but trying a DSLR this time (setting aside skill issues) really produces beautiful photos, so I’ll use a DSLR from now on.
