Its refreshed exterior boasts a more pronounced emphasis on width, lending it an assertive stance on the road. Notably, new air inlets accommodate increased cooling requirements for the potent powertrains beneath its sculpted hood, while redesigned window lines accentuate its sedan character without compromising sportiness.
Suspension Innovation Meets Performance

For those seeking even greater finesse, optional rear-axle steering is available to enhance maneuverability. Moreover, select models offer the cutting-edge Porsche Active Ride system—an option that further extends this dichotomy by employing active shock absorbers linked to an electrically operated hydraulic pump for rapid adjustments under varying conditions.

Leading these is the Turbo E-Hybrid with its revamped twin-turbo V8 engine complemented by a robust electric motor powered by a sizeable battery pack—culminating in a combined output of 670 horsepower and 685 lb.-ft. of torque.
