Porsche Announces Panamera S Hybrid

Keen on getting your hands on a Porsche Panamera, but not so keen on skyrocketing fuel consumption? Then we've got good news for you, because in addition to developing a variety of new electric-drive prototypes for both road and track, Porsche has confirmed the arrival of the Panamera S Hybrid.

Borrowing its gasoline-electric drivetrain from the existing Cayenne S Hybrid sport-utility, the Panamera S Hybrid will be driven by a 329-horsepower 3-liter V6 coupled by a 46hp electric motor. And like its high-riding counterpart, it will be able to operate on electric power alone at low speeds around town. Expect the Panamera S Hybrid to arrive sometime next year.
