Panamera e-Hybrid vs. Model S: Top Track Speed

Both the Tesla Model S and the Panamera e-Hybrid offer incredibly strong acceleration that’s comparable to many super cars. However, when you get going past 150 MPH, the Panamera e-Hybrid shows its Autobahn heritage. While the Tesla Model S has a top speed of up to 163 MPH, the Panamera e-Hybrid can reach speeds of up to 192 MPH with the proper equipment.

Panamera e-Hybrid vs. Model S: Performance Features

Both the Panamera e-Hybrid and the Tesla Model S offer impressive performance, but only the Panamera e-Hybrid comes infused with decades of Porsche racing heritage and technology.

• Engines: The Panamera e-Hybrid comes with either a twin-turbocharged 2.9L V6 engine with e-Hybrid system, or twin-turbocharged 4.0L V8 engine paired with an e-Hybrid system. The Tesla Model S is offered only with a dual-motor electric system
• Transmissions: The Panamera e-Hybrid is equipped with the race-developed Porsche PDK 8-speed transmission. Meanwhile, the Model S uses a direct-drive system that is technically only one-gear.
• Performance Technology: Only the Panamera e-Hybrid is available with the Sport Chrono package, which offers such as a performance display, sport tuned suspension, transmission, and engine.

Panamera e-Hybrid vs. Model S: Interior Features

While the Tesla Model S offers many flashy interior features for you to enjoy, Porsche models are crafted in a way that only a venerable German manufacturer can achieve. Features you’ll find inside the Panamera e-Hybrid include:

• Touchscreen Display: The Panamera provides a large and easy-to-navigate 12.3-inch high-resolution touchscreen display
• Climate Control: Occupants can customize their comfort with the standard four-zone automatic climate control system in the Panamera.
• Rear Seat Entertainment System: When you’re taking long business trips, your passengers in the back of your Panamera e-Hybrid can enjoy exclusive Porsche rear seat entertainment. A comparable feature is not offered on the Tesla Model S.
