Key Features of the 2017 Panamera
Providing buyers with the sought-after exclusivity and class, the 2017 Panamera is the ideal blend of a sports car and passenger sedan. Filled to the brim with an array of technology, the German sedan is intelligent, with its InnoDrive feature working as a testament to that very statement.
Innovative InnoDrive Technology
In conjunction with the Adaptive Cruise Control system, InnoDrive predictively optimizes speed with the aid of navigation data and information obtained through the radar and video sensors on board. The Panamera modifies the speed and gear shifts long before the bends are visible to the human eye.

Traffic Jam Assistance
Paired with a Traffic Jam Assist, InnoDrive eases the burden on the driver when congestion is encountered on highways. At speeds of up to approximately 60 km/h, the system uses gentle steering inputs to:
- Keep the vehicle in the middle of the lane
- Regulate the distance from vehicles in front
- Follow the queue ahead where system limitations allow
