2015 Porsche Panamera E-Hybrid Lifts Sales - Gas 2.0

Sales of the Porsche Panamera are up to 13,500 units so far in 2014, a 28% increase. Worldwide, the best selling Porsche model remains the Cayenne, with 37,200 units, followed by the 911 with 15,615 sold. Purists have always put the knock on Porsche for selling “trucks” (even though the Cayenne is a very, very nice truck) but clearly the corporate bottom line has been fattened considerably by doing so, since the Cayenne outsells the 911 by more... The hybrid has a 9. 4 kWh lithium-ion battery which can be fully charged in about 2. 5 hours via the integrated on-board charging system and the standard Porsche Universal Charger (AC) when connected to a 240V power source. Porsche expect Panamera sales to more than double this year with the hybrid model, and with so many buyers opting for the plug-in hybrid version, it would make sense that Porsche want to add that capability to its best selling vehicle, the Cayenne.
