Porsche’s new Panamera has a ridiculous active suspension setup.
The automaker’s “Active Ride” hydraulic system can wildly tilt the 2024 Panamera E-Hybrid with the steering wheel and pedals while in a test mode, but also, as demonstrated by Porsche for this Out of Spec video, using a smartphone gyro (that feature probably won’t be available for use at home).
Besides the party trick, Road and Track has more details on how the four-motor pump suspension helps combat roll on the track — even leaning into corners like a motorcycle at times — and how it compares to a similar approach in the Ferrari Purosangue.
