Autocar is fast filling up with mentions of ‘software-defined vehicles’ – cars whose performance and functionality is primarily defined electronically rather than physically. The computing power of the car becomes its ruling characteristic and the software for it can be improved and updated time and again, so that it’s never finished, rather in a constant state of flux. The car industry is predictably excited about this idea.

But it’s also enough to make the Turbo S the first factory Porsche Panamera with a top speed beyond 200mph (it’s 202mph).

The Turbo uses two-chamber, height-adjustable air suspension and PASM adaptive damping as standard.
