The luxury subsidiary of Avis’s car rental service, Prestige Rental Car Services, announced that the firm is now offering the Porsche Panamera available for hire.

The luxury vehicle is currently only available in Germany at the moment, but if demand is high enough, the Porsche Panamera could be available throughout the entire Avis fleet.

The Panamera is larger than most sports cars, being able to accommodate four passengers while most can hold only two.  The Panamera features four doors, a luxury leather interior and a boot.  The mechanical side of the high-end vehicle is all according to Porsche’s specific specifications, with direct injection, PDK, start stop technology and sleep aerodynamics.

The new model Porsche was first revealed in April this year at the Shanghai Automobile Show, and the first car hire company in the world to offer the car.  The Panamera will join the exclusive range of luxury cars already available through Avis, including the new Jaguar XKR 5.0 Cabriolet, the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster and the Ferrari F430 F1 Spider.

The starting hire price for the Porsche is €189 for a day or €567 for a weekend, and according to the car hire firm, the Porsche Panamera isn’t too expensive to run as it features brand new technology which helps with fuel efficiency.
