The Porsche Panamera is a mid to full-sized luxury car manufactured and marketed by German automobile manufacturer Porsche across three generations using a front-engine, rear or all-wheel drive configuration.

A luxury car is a car that provides above-average to high-end levels of comfort, features, and equipment. Often more expensive materials and surface finishes are used, and buyers expect better build quality. The usually higher pricing and more upscale appearance is often associated with higher social status of the users, compared to low and mid-market segment cars.
