Porsche Panamera Turbo Sport Turismo - The Uncommon Cold Putting

The fast and narrow A66 traverses northern England’s Pennine mountains. At almost 1,400ft above sea level it’s a regular target for sudden and intense snow storms in winter, and tonight is no exception. Minus on the mercury, middle of the night, and a solitary car is inching on regardless, steady and determined, towards the most northerly point on the British mainland. For a spot of midwinter surfing.

The headlights of the Panamera Turbo illuminate a dense blizzard, windscreen wipers frenetic, 20-inch rear wheels shod with mighty 315/35 ZR 20 rubber tracing the fringe of frozen snow that lines the verges and gradually spreads across the road.

When #porsche unveiled the Sport Turismo at the Geneva Motor Show last March, the possibilities were limitless. Executive levels of luxury, super car performance in Turbo trim and unprecedented levels of practicality. What sort of an adventure could do it justice?

The sweet spot in this increasingly diverse range

An epic drive, over challenging roads through stunning scenery to a remote location and a rendezvous with one of the hardiest sportsmen on the planet. All very Sport Turismo. But as visibility drops further and the Arctic blast intensifies, with 400 miles still to go, is this all a step too far?

The #panameraturbosportturismo is for many the sweet spot in this increasingly diverse range, lighter and more agile than the all-conquering Turbo S E-Hybrid at a little more than two tonnes, still capable of hitting 188mph and seeing off 62mph in an astonishing 3.8 seconds (combined fuel consumption: 9.5 - 7.8 l/100km (29.7 - 36.2 mpg); CO2e: 217 - 178 g/km). Boot space is up to 520 litres, and there’s something about that lower roofline and reimagined rear end that seems to work a little magic on everyone.
