But before talking about technicalities, let's see what's new in the Panamera's design. Updates are minimal and only the keen eyed can tell the differences immediately. Nevertheless, the updated front bumper gets aggressive air intakes with LED DRLs while the rear tail lamps feature slightly different detailing. Save for the new 20- or 21-inch alloy wheels, the side profile remains unchanged.

Step inside and you'll be hard pressed to find what's new as there are no changes on the design front. However, it now comes with an updated infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay. Other new features on offer include matrix LED headlamps, park assist with a 360-degree camera, and a heads-up display.
