I am currently driving a Mercedes CL 500 with 435hp, 700Nm and 8 cylinders; built in 2011. A very comfortable, classy and individual touring vehicle. Now I am looking for a successor. I hit the Panamera E-Hybride with plug-in, which fascinates me technically. Unfortunately, there is nothing comparable with Mercedes. I was able to make a first test drive with a Panamera Turbo S (8 cylinders). That really knocked me over! Contrary to my expectations and despite wide The suspension comfort is surprisingly good. The noise comfort is unique thanks to the hybrid. And when the engine is switched on, it remains discreet and unobtrusive in the background thanks to the noise & thermal glazing on the motorway at normal tempi and the sports exhaust system switched off. The “normal” acceleration is unobtrusive like the CL and pulled like the rubber band. Just as I want it and prefer as a demanding comfort driver. But the Turba S do As the Panamera 4 E-Hybrid (6 cylinders) of the performance data with 462hp and 700Nm is comparable to my CL, I also asked for a test drive with the Panamera 4. What a disappointment! Although equipped with 19-inch but without air suspension, it drives like a bump. The engine constantly roars at an unpleasantly high frequency and is really very annoying. Far from comfort and sovereignty. Also the acceleration process is not comparable with the Turbo S: hectic, loud and nervous. If the Panamera 4 only runs with the hybrid, it is – apart from more wind noise – comparable to the Turbo S. My question to the experts: is my subjective perception wrong? Or can it be that even the Panamera 4 E-Hybrid (6 cylinders) drives as confidently and comfortably as the Panamera Turbo S (8 cylinders) when ordering the option air suspension and option noise & thermal protection glazing?
