Panamera Redesign
Does anyone happen to know when Porsche is planning on releasing the next generation of the Panamera? If they stick to past trends, it doesn't look like that will happen till the 2024 year. Has the community heard anything different?
Thanks in advance!

Here is an interesting article. Notice that Porsche says they are committed to the current model, but have no plans for a third generation just yet.

I too think probably 2023 as a MY 2024.
This recent article notes "While development on the next generation has already started, the current car will be with us for the next few years.."

The car is too long in my opinion. They would've been better off making a 185 inch long super agile sports sedan that wouldve had a much lower price point (something about as large as a camry). With rear wheel steering, PDCC, etc, theres no doubt it wouldve sold like hotcakes, especially because of the lower price point
Sometimes I wonder what Porsche was thinking when they decided to make and Executive long wheelbase version of the panamera and a sport turismo. You have the Cayenne for extra space and storage if someone needs those features

I have a Sport Turismo in the US. it has all the advantages of SUV but still drives well. I had a Cayenne which drives well for an SUV but it is still a truck, The ST provides better options than the Sedan, with no drawbacks

I bought my Panamera because I needed more cargo space but don't like the driving dynamics of SUVs, even the Porsche models. A more compact Panamera would be a non-starter for me. Even losing the few inches of rear cargo height in the hybrid versions is a problem although the ST version might mediate that. My wife has become wheelchair-bound making my 911 a non-option for joint travel. The Cayenne and Macan were actually too high for her to get in. The Panamera seat is essentially the same height as her wheelchair making it easy for her to get in and out, the doors open wide for access, and the chair pops into the rear with ease. The tie downs in the back let me cinch up the chair and drive the mountain roads with enthusiasm. I had put off buying an SUV because of the driving dynamics for years, but the loaner Cayenne during 911 service made me realize the seat height was a problem. I bought the Panamera within 30 days of having the SUV loaner, having eliminated the SUV due to seat access.

Looks like it will be a pretty solid update.
