The 2014 Panamera lineup was given a great refresh. The base engine, installed in the Panamera 4 version, was an upgraded version of the previously used 3.6-liter V6. For the 2013 model year, it was mated exclusively with a 7-speed (PDK – dual-clutch) automatic gearbox and the 6-speed manual was dropped. It also gained some extra horses. The power of the V6 engine in the Panamera increased ten hp (eight kW) to 306 bhp @ 6200 rpm and 295 ft lbs @ 3750 rpm of torque.
The Panamera finally looked great, with a wider, lower, sleeker design that fixed all the hunchback look of the old design. Porsche launched the second generation Panamera for the 2017 model year. Complementing the fresh threads is a completely reimagined interior, replete with touch-capacitive surfaces and massive display screens. The Panamera 4 got a 3.0-liter, turbocharged V-6 with 325 bhp @ 5400 rpm and 332 ft lbs @ 1800 rpm. Performance was impressive, taking only 5.6 seconds to hit 60 mph and a respectable 163 mph top speed. 
Under the hood, the Porsche Panamera 4 featured a twin-turbo V6 engine, good for 330 hp. It was carried-over from the non-facelifted version. The 7-speed PDK (dual-clutch) automatic transmission was fitted as standard. For the 2021 model year, the Panamera 4 featured a redesigned front fascia, with a different bumper and lower apron. The previously optional Sport Design front end was featured as standard on the facelifted version.
The Executive version of the Porsche Panamera 4 gives you all the extra space with all the same goodness of the twin-turbo V6 engine and its 330 hp of performance. The 7-speed PDK (dual-clutch) automatic transmission was fitted as standard. For the 2021 model year, the Panamera 4 featured a redesigned front fascia, with a different bumper and lower apron. The previously optional Sport Design front end was featured as standard on the facelifted version.
Porsche expanded the Panamera family with the addition of a new body version: The Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo. The Panamera 4 got the Sport Turismo treatment. The Panamera 4 Sport Turismos gets the same all-wheel drive system and underlying mechanicals. That means, it gets the base Panamera's 330-hp turbocharged 3.0-liter V-6. Porsche doesn't call the Sport Turismo a station wagon, but that's kinda sorta what it is.
The Panamera 4 Sport Turismo favours a 'Shooting Brake' style rather than being a pure wagon. This is evidenced by its sloping roofline towards the rear, sacrificing cargo space for a more stealthy profile. In addition, there's the pronounced shoulder and elongated window line, which lend the vehicle its striking appearance. The car slots in just above the base Panamera in a lineup that includes up to twenty-five different variants. The '4' references the standard all-wheel-drive, while the 'Sport Turismo' badging hints at more power and agile handling compared to the base trims.
