Porsche Panamera: Hybrid confirmed!

Porsche has confirmed that there will be a Porsche Panamera Hybrid.

Technical details were not disclosed, but sources say the car will require a high price tag.

Porsche can use the same sophisticated transmission in the Panamera as it does in the Cayenne hybrid (which combines an automatic ’box and electric motors), but the installation will be quite different.

The Panamera hybrid is unlikely to have four-wheel drive. This is partly for reasons of economy, but also because it has a very different four-wheel drive system from the big Porsche Cayenne, which will go on sale with a hybrid system in 2011.
