Porsche has just announced that the it is expanding its hybrid fleet with the addition of the Panamera S Hybrid. Set to debut at next month’s Geneva Motor Show, the big sedan will come to the party packing a combined 380 horsepower, a figure Porsche says is good enough to get the machine to 62 mph in six seconds flat en route to a top speed of 168 mph. A total of 333 of those ponies are derived from the company’s supercharged 3.0-liter V6 engine, while the remaining 47 horsepower will be served up by an electric motor. An eight-speed automatic gearbox handles shifting detail, and Porsche says that the Panamera S Hybrid can be powered by either the internal combustion lump or the electric motor or by both in tandem.
Power for the electric mill is stored in a traditional nickel-metal hydride battery, and a regenerative braking system recharges the cells during deceleration.

That wasn’t much of a problem except it would make final deliveries of Porsche tuning kits relatively slow. Now, if there’s one thing high rollers who want a custom Porsche can’t do, that’s waiting.
With the new addition, Techart can ramp up deliveries and, subsequently, sales in the U.S. Once they get more money, there’s only two ways to go for them.
They either come up with lots of crazy tuning kits for various Porsche products or they start making really weird stuff to tailor to the American market.
Techart Porsche Tuning
Techart’s CEO, a chap called Thomas Behringer admits that the U.S. is the company’s biggest market and this is their way of giving back. The Irvine, California shop will offer the full range of Techart products from wheels to fire-breathing tuning kits for both engines and bodies of Porsche vehicles.
