2018 Porsche Panamera VS 2018 Audi RS5

2018 Porsche Panamera
2018 Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo: Making wagons great again: Whatever else you’re doing right now isn’t important. Porsche has built a station wagon and it’s everything the world hoped it would be. The real thing is almost exactly the same as the Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo concept from 2012. Of course, there are some slight design changes, and it gets side mirrors, but it’s a Porsche Panamera station wagon, and that’s all that counts. Look at it. It’s beautiful. The wagon shape really works well with this new Panamera body. There are a few bits that help differentiate the Sport Turismo from the regular ol’ Panamera hatchback. An adaptive roof spoiler can be set in three different stages and will produce up to 110 pounds of downforce over the rear axle. Above highway speeds with the panoramic roof open, the spoiler helps minimize wind noise. The rear half of the Sport Turismo is a little different, as well. The default configuration adds a third seat in the second row, a first for the Panamera. Of course, if you’re not buying this for the family, you can still opt for a two-seat configuration with a large center console. The raised roof line makes second-row ingress and egress a little easier, too. While the body might be new, the underpinnings are basically the same. The base model features a 330-horsepower, 3.0-liter V6. The next level up is the Panamera 4S Sport Turismo, which features a 440-hp V6. The Panamera 4 E-Hybrid Sport Turismo adds a 136-horsepower electric motor to the 4S powertrain. At the tippy top is the Turbo Sport Turismo, which wields a 550-horsepower, 4.0-liter V8. All this beauty doesn’t come cheap. The Panamera 4 Sport Turismo starts at $96,200. The hybrid will set you back $104,000, and the 4S will run you $109,200. The Turbo is by far the most costly, with a price tag of $154,000. But who cares? It’s actually coming to the US, and it’ll do so at the end of 2017.

2018 Audi RS5
2018 Audi RS5: Two Turbos, Much Power, Available Hatchback: What It Is: Audi’s monster version of the new A5 coupe. It’s powered by a furious twin-turbocharged V-6, fitted with a rear-biased all-wheel-drive system, and comes wearing a wide body that evokes, for some of us, the original Sport Quattro rally cars. For the first time, there will be a four-door RS5 Sportback; the RS5 cabriolet is gone. Europe gets an RS4 Avant with the same powertrain, but due to the U.S. market’s aversion to wagons, don’t expect it to appear on these shores. Why It Matters: The Audi brand has been suffering from two things: safe, evolutionary styling and the diesel scandal that engulfed the entire Volks­wagen Group. It needs nothing more than sexy new product, and the RS5 should prove that the brand hasn’t lost its touch. Platform: The RS5 is based on the modular, longitudinal-­engine MLB Evo platform, shared with the A4, the Q5/Q7, the next-gen A6/A7/A8, and a number of VW Group models such as the China-market VW Phideon sedan. Powertrain: A 444-hp version of the twin-turbo 2.9-liter V-6 that also powers the Porsche Panamera 4S. Peak torque is rated at 443 pound-feet, and the output routes to all four wheels through a ZF-supplied eight-speed automatic.Competition: BMW M4, Cadillac ATS-V coupe, Lexus RC F, Mercedes-AMG C63. What Might Go Wrong: The RS5’s exterior design might fail to push Audi’s design language forward. Estimated Arrival and Price: Late this year as a 2018 model with a starting price just over $70K; the Sportback will come a half-year later.
