Overview
The Porsche Panamera is a grand tourer sedan for buyers who want a four-door Porsche with long-distance intent rather than an SUV. In Malaysia, the 972-generation car is sold as a five-seat 2.9-litre V6 petrol model with a wet dual-clutch automatic, priced from RM1,300,000. It suits drivers placing pace and cabin space above a lower entry price.
Panamera in 2026 — what's new
For 2026, the Panamera carries on in Malaysia with no confirmed local model-year change. The current 972-generation range remains the single 2.9 V6 petrol variant launched in 2024, with PASM air suspension and updated tech. The latest concrete update is the 2025 infotainment upgrade for Panamera, adding third-party apps and Dolby Atmos; the 2026 merger talk with Taycan points to future planning, not a showroom change.

Verdict
The Panamera’s case rests on a very specific set of facts: five seats, a petrol V6, dual-clutch transmission and PASM air suspension in a grand tourer sedan body. The 2024 car’s 7:24.17 Nürburgring production executive car record gives its performance side a hard number. But it is not the rational price play beside the RM459,000 Lotus Emeya. Buy it for the Porsche four-door GT format, not bargain maths.
