Nevertheless, the tradition brings rich sports car brand of the German Zuffenhausen felt more innovations to the market as brands with twice as many models.
Because no other manufacturer understands it as well as Porsche, to present each variant of the model with the big dipper. Alone in the Panamera, it went off in 2016, with two entry-level models. There are two Hybrid versions (of course not at the same time) and the GTS followed in the stages of Turbo. And the forms in two body Panamera and Panamera Sport Turismo.

Nevertheless, the big Porsche SUV indulges in as a GTS 13,0 l / 100 km. From the beginning of July Cayenne are GTS (from 142’200 Fr.) and Cayenne Coupé GTS ( from 147’300 Fr.) to have.
