Home / 2018 Mercedes-Benz CLS 550 Coupe vs 2018 Porsche Panamera

2018 Mercedes-Benz CLS 550 Coupe vs 2018 Porsche Panamera

Luxury coupes are highly sought out for their impeccable style, unbeatable performance, and upscale interiors. The CLS Coupe has been an icon for the luxury coupe segment since its initial release, continuing to raise the bar for other luxury brands. See how it stacks up against one of its top competitors in this 2018 Mercedes-Benz CLS 550 Coupe vs 2018 Porsche Panamera comparison. 

The price difference between the 2018 CLS 550 and 2018 Panamera is a stark $10,000--but a closer look reveals that paying extra for the Panamera doesn't equate to more value. Although cheaper, the CLS 550 Coupe has much more to offer under the hood with its larger V8 engine, as opposed to the Panamera's V6, and advanced 9-speed automatic transmission. The CLS 550 delivers a more thrilling driving experience with 72 more horsepower than the Panamera. The CLS 550 also accelerates from 0-60 mph .5 seconds faster than the Panamera. The Panamera does achieve slightly better fuel economy, due to its lack of power. Why pay more for less?
