Panamera Sport Turismo
The estate that drives like a sports car — Porsche's answer to every excuse not to buy a wagon · 5 seats
REPRESENTATIVE PHOTOWolfgang Vrede / PexelsOur verdict
9.0 / 10The Panamera Sport Turismo is perhaps the best all-rounder Porsche makes — a shooting brake that genuinely hauls the family in five-star luxury while carving corners like a 911. The 2025 generation (971.2) brings a larger battery in the PHEV trims (25.9 kWh for up to 90 km EV range), a completely redesigned interior with spectacular curved displays, and power outputs ranging from a perfectly adequate 463hp in the 4 E-Hybrid to a mind-bending 771hp in the Turbo S E-Hybrid. In the UAE, where motorways are long and speed limits high, this car is entirely at home — and it offers genuine practicality that no Porsche sedan can match.
Who it's for — High-net-worth professionals and families who refuse to compromise between performance, luxury, and practicality. Suits the Dubai or Abu Dhabi resident who wants one car to do school runs, business travel, and occasional track days — and who values the cachet and engineering excellence of Porsche. The PHEV trims make particular sense for commuters who can charge at home or office, reducing running costs substantially.
