Porsche Panamera Long Wheelbase Confirmed for US, Priced From $125,600
Designed with the Chinese market in mind, the new extended-wheelbase Panamera won’t be reserved for those on the other side of the Pacific, with Porsche Cars North America confirming the longer sedan for sale in the U.S. this year.
Available as either a 4S or Turbo model, the Panamera Executive will be priced from $125,600 and $161,000 respectively. That roughly translates to an increase of $25,000 and $20,000 (respectively) over the standard wheelbase models.
What buyers get for the extra chunk of change is six more inches of rear seat legroom, as well as a more comfort-oriented air suspension system.

Like their conventional wheelbase counterparts, Panamera 4S Executive models also benefit from a new biturbo 3.0-liter V6 engine, which replaces the old 4.8-liter V8. The result is improved fuel economy as well as an increase in power to 420 hp.
