Adaptive air suspension including
Porsche Active Suspension
Management (PASM).
The new Panamera GTS is equipped as
standard with adaptive air suspension
including Porsche Active Suspension
Management (PASM). This combined
system enhances both dynamic perfor-
mance and comfort. It features a level-
ling system, ride-height adjustment,
spring rate adjustment and electronic
adjustment of damping forces.
With the air suspension at Normal Level,
the Panamera GTS already sits 10 mm
lower than other Panamera models and
the dampers have a firmer setting. As
soon as SPORT PLUS mode is selected,
the suspension automatically drops to
Low Level (15 mm lower). At the same
time, a harder spring rate is achieved
through a reduction in the amount of air
stored in the air suspension.
The manual lift function enables you to
raise the vehicle body by 30 mm to
High Level to minimise the risk of
grounding, e.g. on car park ramps.* The
purpose of the levelling system is to
keep the vehicle level constant automati-
cally and regardless of load distribution.
PASM is an electronic damping control
system. It actively and continuously
regulates damping forces according
to driving style and road conditions for
increased body stability and a more
direct steering response. It is possible
to select from three modes: Comfort,
SPORT or SPORT PLUS.
For you, this involves nothing more than
the press of a button and you can feel the
result: increased driving stability,
more
comfort and improved performance.
* The vehicle must not be driven at High Level on public roads as the maximum permissible installation height of the reflector units may then be exceeded.
