2015 Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid HD Wallpapers

During the time we spent together with the 2015 Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid, we were somehow hit by a wave of memories from the era when our computers were kept busy by Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed. To be more specific, we were thinking about the Zone Industrielle track, one of our favorite. As a result we'll kick off this round of Full HD wallpapers with the S E-Hybrid in an industrial landscape. Truth be told, we drove in all electric mode and the car was so silent we could hear the rust eating away the abandoned metallic structure around us.

Acid Green, this is the name of the hue that sets the S E-Hybrid apart for the other Panamera facelift models. It has only been used for a few accents, but this is enough to make the car stand out, as much as a Porsche will ever want to stand out. In case Acid Green seems familiar, you might have seen it on the 918 Spyder hypercar or on the 997 911 Turbo S Edition 918 Spyder. There's a catch though - the color matches certain body colors better than other and in the case of our test car, the marriage was a happy one.



The revamp has transformed the previous Panamera S Hybrid into the plug-in hybrid you are looking at. As a result, all the cool figures, especially the efficiency ones have been boosted. For instance, the frame above sees us testing the sports sedan's all-electric top speed. There's something unique in driving a Porsche at 84 mph (135 km/h) with the engine in front of you put to sleep.



The mid-cycle refresh hasn't really done too much for the Panamera's styling. The headlights are redesigned and so is the front fascia, but you have to be a friend of the Zuffenhausen machines in order to spot the differences. Then again, this is a Porsche, so what did you expect?



Acid Green was also poured inside the car, albeit in even more limited quantities. Oh and by the way, while most hybrids replace their rev counter with a power meter that shows the driver how efficient he is, this is a Porsche, so the rev meter keeps center stage. Instead, the new information in show in the area that used to hold the analogue speedometer.



2.5 Hours. This is how much time you’ll spend to bring the vehicle to a full charge, providing that you use the Porsche Universal Charger and rely on a 400V industrial outlet. Otherwise, a standard 240V socket (Europe) raises the charging time to 4 hours. Porsche doesn’t talk about the 120V outlets, but you should expect the time to increase to between 8 and 9 hours. While you chew on that info, you can check out the Full HD image gallery of our 2015 Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid review.
