/According to emAutoTelegraaf/em, the image above is the first official picture of the a
href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/PorschePanamera/"Porsche Panamera,/a showing the new four-door
"coupe" in all its oddly proportioned glory. The Dutch pub released the image and details on the
sedan after emAuto Motor und Sport/em supposedly broke the Monday embargo. More details will be
released late Sunday night, but in the meantime, let's look at the reported specs.br /br /The a
href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/PorschePanameraGranTurismo/"Porsche Panamera Gran Turismo/a is
16.3 feet long, 6.3 feet wide and 4.66 feet tall, with a wheelbase of 9.6 feet. Weight hasn't been
disclosed, but its roughly two tons. The most striking detail on the profile shot is the
indentations leading from the front fenders, aft of the wheels, into the doors, but the jury is
still out on the Panamera's bulbous back end. The slippery shape and low profile gives the sedan a
drag coefficient of 0.29, while an electronically actuated rear spoiler will keep things planted at
speed.br /br /An electronic air suspension is part of the package, along with an LSD, and power can
be sent to either the rear wheels, or all four, depending on the trim level. Motivation will be
provided by a range of engines, beginning with 3.6-liter V6 putting out 300 hp, and continuing
upwards with the 400 hp, 4.8-liter V8 Panamera S and the Panamera Turbo, packing a
twin-turbocharged version of the same bent eight putting out an estimated 500 hp. Power will be
sent to Porsche's new PDK dual-clutch gearbox and although a diesel model has been ruled out, a
V6-hybrid variant with 350 hp will come along at a later date.br /br /Porsche aims to sell
approximately 20,000 units of the Panamera each year, with the automaker estimating that 20% will
be the range-topping Turbo model. The Panamera will only be available in S and Turbo guises at
launch, with the V6 model following shortly thereafter. Once established, Porsche hopes demand will
increase to 50,000 units annually, with sales beginning in the U.S., Europe and Asia next year.
