porsche pajun and panamera positioning?

sam6133 · 08-04-2015, 12:17 PM

So i heard pajuns coming out and panameras model change is due 2017

I think their positioning can be directly against bmw and other german brands

What would pajun be against? 5 series? Then panamera for 6 series?

Some are also comparing panamera against quattroporte which is direct rival to 7 series

Where does panamera sit in this league? 6 or 7 series?

Been hearing lately the pajun will be more of a 5 series competitor

Panamera has always been an upscale 6-series GC, CLS, and A7 competitor. Pajun was always intended to be a sporty 5-series competitor, but the latest rumors are that it will be offered exclusively in an electric powertrain, so it may be more of a Tesla Model S competitor, of all things.

a plug in hybrid is better. Like Volvo has shown a car built with the hybrid in mind creates a better design for where the batteries should go.

I definitely would consider a plug in if all cars were automatic. Suits my 3 days a week commute of 6Km and the other days with a 30Km commute.
