I recently switched from a 991.1 Turbo S to a 971 Panamera Turbo S e-Hybrid.

While I did the switch for family reasons, I have to say I am enjoying the Turbo S e-Hybrid more than the 991.1 Turbo S. The car has a lot of grip and it drives like it is on rails. While I have not taken it to the mountains yet, around town and on the highways I don't think I'm losing any performance and I'm finding I drive it faster because it feels more effortless. Lot of low end torque from the electric motor offsets the turbo lag and makes city driving and weaving through traffic a breeze.

Plus with my 991.1 TTS I was getting 11-12mpg and now I'm running 24mpg with the same driving style.
