Default 2010 vs 2011

Hey guys, what are the small differences between a 2010 and a 2011. I am sure if i asked the dealer they would say it is the same car. Porsche has never NOT changed something. please advise

Default 2011 difference

i read somewhere that 2011 models will have standard regenerative braking...alternator charges on braking; not on acceleration; to keep parasite draw to a minimum..unless the car needs charging due to high current draw...

I heard that a well! PVT as an option. Better gas mileage also mentioned. ?

Is there somewhere to read about regenerative braking in the Panamera?

It appears a large part of the mileage increase is for the 19" tires only.

From Googling around to find a pic of keyless go (which I haven't yet found) there's quite a laundry list of changes mentioned at the various car sites:

1. regenerative brake
2. PTV+
3. steering wheel PDK shifter option
4. different rear wheels (?)
5. low rolling-resistance tire option
6. satellite image option for GPS


Of course the real news will be the Hybrid ... sadly looking like a blown V6 ... boring ... where's the V10 turbo-diesel, people?! you've already got the thing on a rack in the VW parts bin for Pete's sake!

As we've seen with the Cayenne Hybrid, the gas-hybrid is wildly expensive and achieves no material gain. Disappointing.

Personally, I'm looking forward to a 2 door hard top cabriolet version in AWD. If it were a diesel hybrid, that would be even better.
