Just when you thought Porsche was having a little breather following all its hard work in launching the new 911, out comes another Panamera variant – the Grand Turismo Sport.

The GTS boasts more oomph than the S/4S, has better braking power too and, it’s been lowered by 10mm to help give it even better road hugging qualities.

Its interior has been kitted out with sports seats, a Sport Design steering wheel and there’s lots of GTS leather and Alcantara to stroke.

Most important of all is the modified 4.8-litre naturally aspirated V8 producing 430bhp at 6,700rpm and 520Nm of torque. And with a PDK channeling the power to all four corners, the GTS will run the 0-100kph sprint in an impressive 4.5 seconds and top out at 288kph. It’ll do all this while sipping 10.9 litres-per-100km which isn’t bad at all. 

Lots of leather and Alcantara to touch and feel, but make sure your hands are clean first...
It features five millimetre thick wheel spacers, increasing the rear axle track width and giving the four-door an even more stable ride.
