The range-topping Mercedes GT63 S packs 630 horsepower and 627 pound-feet of torque
This is where the Panamera GTS really differentiates and distances itself from the regular Panamera. The GTS is slotted between the base trim and top-spec Turbo. Previously, the Panamera came with a 4.8-liter, naturally aspirated V-8 engine that churned 440 horses.
It paired to an eight-speed PDK automatic transmission system. This is 13 horses more than the Panamera S, but almost a 100 ponies less than the Panamera Turbo. As for the speed runs, both the GTS trims can sprint to 62 mph from a standstill in 3.9 seconds. The Sports Turismo tops out at 180 mph, and the saloon GTS at 182 mph.

Next up is the GT63, powered by the familiar 4.0-liter V-8 rated at 577 horsepower and 553 pound-feet. This output is on par with the hardcore AMG GT R, but with 33 pound-feet of twist on top. Pretty cool huh? Hitting 60 mph from a standing start takes only 3.3 seconds, while top speed goes up to 193 mph. The European version of this model gets even more torque, being rated at 800 Nm, or 590 pound-feet.

Finally, there’s the range-topping GT63 S model, which comes with a whopping 630 horsepower and 627 pound-feet, more than any version of the AMG GT two-door sports car. In this configuration, 60 mph comes in only 3.1 seconds, while top speed increases to 195 mph. Again, the Euro specs are slightly different for this model too, with the torque figure placed at 900 Nm, or 664 pound-feet.

Prices
The car will reach the dealerships only in the second-half of 2019. The price for the Panamera GTS starts at $128,300, and is $6,200 cheaper than the Gran Turismo. While it may seem quite steep when compared to the standard Panamera, the features and specs offered for the extra price seem worth it.

It’s way too early to talk about pricing, but the GT 4-Door should start from around $140,000 in the United States. For reference, the Mercedes-AMG GT S fetches $129,000 before options.
