2023 Panamera Safety

The NHTSA has not conducted a safety review of the Porsche Panamera, and there are no reviews available for it from the IIHS either, which means the sedan remains unrated. Given the standard safety specification, we doubt the Panamera would be anything but safe.

2023 Panamera Key Safety Features

The Panamera comes standard with dual front, side, rear side, and curtain airbags for all outboard seating positions. Front passengers also get knee airbags. Porsche includes the usual array of active safety features like ABS, EBD, and adaptive traction and stability control.

On the driver assistance side, you don't get much included in the base price. It's just lane-keep assist, traffic sign recognition, a rearview camera, adaptive cruise control, and front and rear park assist.

There are several safety features available on the options list but Porsche charges a fortune for them. The surround-view camera costs $920, lane change assist is $1,060, and night vision assist adds $2,410 to the price.

2023 Panamera Reliability

Not all model years of the Panamera are recall-free, but there hasn't been a scary number of problems, either. The Panamera was recall-free in both 2019 and 2020, but the facelifted 2021 model was recalled twice. The first issue was an incorrectly forged front lower trailing arm, while the second was a seat belt locking retractor malfunction. Porsche was quite preemptive with its recalls, as the Panamera has had zero complaints lodged against it for the last three years. 2022 and 2023 models were recall-free at the time of writing.

According to the J.D. Power review, the Panamera is pretty satisfying own, scoring a 76 out of 100 overall and 74 for quality and reliability, specifically. Overall, the Panamera seems like a fairly safe bet in terms of reliability, even if it hasn't been flawless.

All Panamera models are sold with a four-year/50,000-mile warranty, including 24-hour roadside assistance. Complimentary scheduled maintenance is covered for one year or 10,000 miles, while the hybrid/electric components are covered for eight years or 100,000 miles.
