(from JE Design Press
Release) JE DESIGN Gives the Porsche Panamera a Customized
Increase in Sportiness
• Dynamic
aerodynamic kit in OEM quality
• Power increase to 300 BHP for the Porsche Panamera Diesel
• Porsche Panamera Turbo increased to 600 BHP
• Exclusive 22” alloy rims in the “Pandora” design
• Electronic suspension-lowering module
When designing its
exclusive accessories line for the Porsche Panamera,
automobile-tuning company JE DESIGN has stuck with the tried and
tested. With an attractive aerodynamic package, the unique form and
lines of the Porsche sedan become even more striking. The JE DESIGN
front skirt (3,332 Euros) is designed in such a way that the air
in-flow of the intercooler is further optimized. Daytime driving
lights / marker lights and blinking LEDs are integrated into the
elaborate double bars. In addition, the custom-fitting skirt has
central vent openings where it meets the hood. The side skirts
(1,547 Euros) integrate harmoniously with the Porsche design and,
complete with air inlets, give the Panamera an even sportier
appearance.
Strikingly Sporty and Functional
JE DESIGN has further
refined the tail of the Panamera, which was already extremely
attractive in the standard series model. In place of the extendable
rear spoiler, the tuning company has opted for a fixed spoiler
(1,547 Euros), taking the design of the Porsche in an even sportier
direction. The complete rear skirt with its diffuser and central air
outlet in no way contradicts this ethos. A removable covering is
integrated into its underside, meaning that the tow bar available
from Porsche as an optional extra can still be used. The functional
skirt is available at 3,332 Euros. It is also possible to continue
using the standard exhaust system upon request, even with the JE
DESIGN rear skirt installed. If you want the sound of the Panamera
to be even more sonorous, it is also possible to install a JE DESIGN
stainless steel cat-back exhaust system including valve control
(only with petrol engines) for 3,987 Euros. A stainless steel
exhaust system without valve control is available for the diesel
model. Each of the four round tailpipes has a diameter of 100
millimeters.
Power Increases and lowered
Suspension
The air-suspension on
the Panamera available from JE DESIGN (1,428 Euro) lowers the
chassis by between 20 and 30 millimeters. By electronically
adjusting the Porsche’s pneumatic suspension, the impact of the
light alloy rims in the “Pandora” design, with their matt black
spokes and stainless steel surround, available in 9 and 10.5 x 22”
variations, becomes even more powerful within the wheel arches. The
complete wheel set, including 265/30R22 and 295/25R22 large
high-performance tires costs 6,545 Euros. Naturally the
functionality of the infinitely adjustable “Porsche Active
Suspension Management” (PASM) damping system, with its three
programs: “Comfort”, “Sport” and “Sport Plus”, is retained.
Power increase packages for the Panamera Diesel and the Panamera
Turbo are available from JE DESIGN. The additional control unit
increases the standard power from 184 kW (250 BHP) to 221 kW (300
BHP), while the maximum torque of the 3.0-liter, six cylinder diesel
increases from 550 Nm to 650 Nm. With these new levels of power, the
performance-enhanced Panamera Diesel can accelerate from 0-60 mph
within 6.5 seconds (compared with 6.8 secs for the series model).
The top speed increases from 150 to 155 mph. The Panamera Turbo is
even faster. JE DESIGN have boosted the power of the eight-cylinder
Bi-Turbo with its 4.8-liter cylinder capacity to 441 kW (600 BHP) by
installing the JE-DESIGN additional control unit. This amounts to an
increase of 100 BHP in comparison to the power of the standard
series model, at 368 kW (500 BHP). The standard model’s 700 Nm
torque is increased to 850 Newton meters as a result of the modified
control electronics. This reduces the 0-60 mph acceleration time
from 42 to 3.8 secs. The top speed of 188 mph remains unchanged.
The tuning company will
install the new software for the control unit for 1,500 Euros
including VAT for the diesel model, and for 2,000 Euros for the
turbo model. This includes a one-year warranty covering the engine,
turbo charger, gearbox and drive chain, which can be extended by an
additional year for 200 Euros, provided the modified Porsche model
is no more than 2 years old and has less than 60,000 miles on the
odometer.
The high-quality accessories from JE DESIGN have received many
awards from the international trade press.
