BeforePanamera GTS ReviewAlthough I am doing it, I was able to rent a substitute car for several days this time, so I was able to feel various things quite densely. This time, I was able to ride in various scenes from everyday use to highways, so I would like to consider the position of GTS based on the experience of owning a turbo and the experience of 4S and hybrid.

This Panamera will be the GTS of the first half of 971.Barcano Gray Metallic black 20 inch, individual wearing Panamera design wheelsis. The key points such as the emblem unique to GTS are black, giving a very fearless and sporty impression.
Interior is two-tone leather Interior black / Bordeaux red, smooth leatherIt will be the finish. In the past, I personally didn't like the red interior, but as I experienced various Porsche with red interior, I feel very good these days.
The seat is an 18-way electric adaptive sports seat. Previously, the Panamera turbo that I had at home had a 14-way comfort seat below, but when I sit down with my body shape, I get the opposite impression.
The former sports seat is far more comfortable.
First, the thickness of the seat is completely different. The 14way comfort seat is very thin, and after riding for a long time, my butt started to hurt. However,This 18-way sports seat has a very thick seating surface even though it is called sports, so it will not hurt for a long time.
Each person feels differently depending on their body shape and weight, so I would like you to make your own judgment in the end, but from my experience, recent Porsche seats, including 992, are more expensive than normal seats. Is more comfortable to sit on. Therefore, those who place importance on ride quality and those who often drive for a long time should use expensive seats.
All in allDon't be fooled by words like "comfort" and "sports seat plus"I want to be. I think it's better to understand the meaning in reverse.
The sound when the engine is started is quite loud. Since the engine itself is the same as the turbo, the sound quality and volume are almost the same as the turbo. Especially in the early morning at the cold start, you have to be careful about the neighborhood.
The start is very smooth,Shifting is smoother than the GTS that I tested before and the turbo that I had at homeI feel like. Perhaps there was a change in PDK control due to annual improvements.
When you drive around 30-50km / h in the city, you can hear a faint "guon" sound from the rear.This production was not in Turbo, no, the manners in the city of Turbo were quieter.
It's still GTS, so I think he's particular about how to listen to traditional sounds.
It feels very good to run slowly, and it makes me feel very happy that the sound, engine speed, and speed are synchronized.
The feeling of power in the city is enough, but what is worrisome is the turbo lag. Compared to the turbo engine of a long time ago, I think that it is a better person,Compared to the 992's original Carrera engine, there is a little more lag.
For example, in a situation where you want to step forward lightly from a state where you are slowly flowing around 3rd to 5th speed,There will be one beat.
I don't know if this is due to turbo lag or cylinder deactivation, but there is certainly a time lag.
By the way, with the 992 base grade, you don't have to step on your right foot, just focus on your foot and put a little effort into it, and it will come out quickly from any situation without a break. It's not an electric motor, but it seems to be an excellent diesel engine these days.
When you open it, press the sports response button and enjoy the maximum boost acceleration limited to 20 seconds. As soon as you step on the accelerator deeply, the body is strongly pushed from behind.
It ’s pretty fast, but it ’s fast.However, knowing the turbo's face-twitching acceleration is a bit unsatisfactory.Also, I know the response of the lightning-fast fire of the E-hybrid model and the torque feeling of the electric boost, so it is a fact that I am not impressed.
The engine noise and exhaust noise are quite loud, about the same as with a turbo sports exhaust. However,In the case of GTS, the difference from the volume at full acceleration is small because it is originally set so that it can be heard even in the low speed range.
In the case of the turbo, it is usually quiet, and when you step on it, it accelerates with a tremendous roar, so the size of the head makes the impression that the turbo is bigger.
Regarding the bubbling sound, when the accelerator is released, "Rumbling], But the frequency and volume are a little modest compared to the turbo sports exhaust specifications.
In the case of turbo, more "Bubba Bubba! I think there was a roaring sound that was not like a sedan.
