Question related to the turbo funciton

Hi guys,
I recently bought a Porsche Panamera e-hybrid 4, from 2017, and I'm having some 'issues' related with the turbo and turbocharging function.
Basically, when I'm accelerating the turbo indicator runs out, and when this happens the car 'loses' power noticeably and the acceleration is completely different from when the turbo indicator is fully (or partially) charged.
After this happens I raise my foot from the accelerator and sometimes the turbo returns, but sometimes it doesn't, and I'm trying to understand if this is normal or if I should get it checked.
I'll leave a video attached when I'm mid-acceleration, and you'll notice that when I raise the foot from the accelerator the turbo (that was partially charged) suddenly disappears completely, and you feel a drastic change in the car's power.
I'd appreciate if any of you could help me understand this matter, thank you!

Is the car the Turbo-s e-hybrid or an e-hybrid 4?

It may be the "e-boost" function running out of juice. The electric boost is not available 100% of the time. When it's gone, you lose over 200 ft. lbs. of torque.

Oh, thank you!
Just to make sure, is that normal or something I should get checked?
