London, 08 January 2024, (Oilandgaspress): – The new Panamera is both a sports car and a touring sedan – and thanks to the new Porsche Active Ride chassis, it offers a driving experience that sets new standards.Sports car and touring sedan, agility plus comfort – this is the goal of the Porsche Panamera. When it comes to chassis development, this poses a challenge, as the development goals of optimum traction and high-performance cornering are at odds with driving comfort, and vice versa.
This trade-off is resolved in the new Panamera with the optional Porsche Active Ride chassis. Porsche spent six years working on the system that enables the new Panamera to adapt to any road situation. It balances out road imperfections by isolating them. At the same time, it aims to offer an especially involving driving experience by establishing intimate contact with the road. “The vehicle boasts composed body control – but nevertheless remains agile on the racetrack,” explains Ingo Albers, Head of Drive Systems at Porsche.
The design varies depending on the driving mode (Normal, Sport, and Sport Plus), but the system’s benefits come to bear in all three modes.
The chassis also allows for new features – it automatically reduces pitching and rolling in all the driving modes. The body therefore remains horizontal. It also adapts wheel load distribution to the degree of available grip and lowers the chassis when corners are taken in a spirited manner in Sport Plus mode. The result is greater traction in all situations. At the touch of a button, the innovative chassis can do more than offset body movements. The Panamera then leans into the corner like a motorcycle. Or it leans forward when accelerating and back when braking like a helicopter, to make the situations more comfortable. The system can additionally raise the body to make it easier for passengers to get in and out.
