The new Porsche Panamera GTS made its world debut today in Los Angeles. The latest addition to the Panamera family, which slots between the S/4S and Turbo models, is based on the all-wheel drive 4S adding more power, upgraded brakes and chassis along with plenty of styling tweaks inside and out.
Power comes from a mildly tuned version of the naturally-aspirated 4.8-liter V8 engine found in the S/4S that gains 30HP and 15 lb-ft pushing the total to 430-horses at 6,700 rpm and 384 lb. ft of peak torque.
The GTS comes fitted with the Sport Chrono package and Porsche's 7-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic transmission as standard. The combination enables the Panamera GTS to complete the 0-60 mph [96 km/h] in 4.3 seconds and reach a top speed of 178mph [286 km/h].
To further improve handling, the Stuttgart firm's engineers added a lowered air suspension and the Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) system. Porsche says that with the suspension set at "Normal," the GTS sits an 10mm lower than any other Panamera model.
