NY Auto Show pics: Porsche Panamera S Hybrid

By Jeffrey Van Camp April 21, 2011

The New York International Auto Show has been pretty eventful this year. Yesterday Porsche debuted its new Panamera S Hybrid and Panamera Turbo S. We took some shots of the hybrid here. Unlike the Turbo S, which has a nice V8 with 550 horsepower, the S Hybrid runs on a V6 with about 333 hp. Though, when you need it, the electric motor can add an additional 47 hp. The Hybrid can hit 60 mph in 5.7 seconds, has a top track speed of 167 mph, and will retail for about $95,000, which is a bargain when you compare it to the $172,000 the Turbo S will cost you. Both cars, along with a four-door version, will arrive this summer.

Performance versions of ordinary cars have been a staple of the auto industry for decades. But while we’ve already seen some variants of EVs boasting more power and more impressive stats — think Tesla Model S Plaid or Lucid Air Sapphire — the 2025 Hyundai Ioniq 5 N is the first to truly apply that format to an EV.

The Maserati GranCabrio Folgore is one of the best-looking EVs yet

Maserati is adopting electrified vehicles with open arms, and while that could potentially signal an identity crisis for the luxury Italian brand, that’s probably a good thing in the long run.

The company recently took the wraps off of the new Maserati GranCabrio Folgore, which is essentially a convertible version of its already released GranTurismo Folgore electric car. The new EV is its third go at electrified vehicles so far, and it flew us out to Rimini, Italy, to witness the big reveal in person.
