Best Hybrid From Porsche The Ultimate Wedding Car

The Porsche Panamera S Hybrid is one of the best hybrid luxury cars available today in terms of efficiency, featuring a 31.8 mpg city/highway average. It has been known as the wedding car in demand for couples across the United States. That is pretty impressive for a 375 horsepower, 4,365 pound, four-passenger luxury sedan that can go zero to 60 mph in under 6 seconds, and reach a top speed of 168 mph.

This makes the Panamera the world's fastest luxury hybrid four-door. Many Porsche purists have been whining about the Cayenne SUVs and now the Panamera sedans as ruining the Porsche sports car brand, but these new models have both been top sellers for the company, accounting for nearly 70% of Porsche sales worldwide. While the Panamera S starts at $89,800, the S Hybrid is more expensive at $95,000. For that price you'd expect the battery pack to be top of the line, yet it is a common nickel metal hydride instead of the ultra-chic lithium-ion variety.
