I think its the price. The Macan and Cayenne sell well because they are essentially gateway vehicles into the Porsche brand, and something loyal Porsche owners can get for their family, and the Taycan is new and cool, more unique with little competition, so that sells, at least for now. The Panamera on the other hand is much more expensive and doesn't lease well, and is one of the lesser athletic Porsche's available. They seem to just sit on lots, especially the Sport Turismo's, there are still a few new 2018's available, and many that have been turned into "demo cars." Its not just the Panamera though, but really the entire class, the GT4D and 8er suffer from similar issues.
