RC:

Technically, it is possible and wouldn't impose much of a problem but apparently there is no market (yet) for that.

Like Lars said...probably only a marketing decision but very likely based on certain technical/cost factors too.

Would I buy a Panamera Diesel AWD with 300 HP or less ? Probably not.

Would I buy a Panamera Diesel AWD with 400 HP or more ? More likely.

Maybe Porsche just needs to introduce the "right" Diesel engine to the Panamera.

Would I buy a Panamera Diesel with 300 HP and 300 ft/lbs of torque? Probably not.

Would I buy a Panamera Diesel with 300 HP and more than 450 ft/lbs of torque? Probably Yes.

Would I buy a Panamera Diesel with the Q7-V12 (500 HP and 737 ft/lbs of torque)? If I had the money - Most Certainly!
