Deliveries for the all-new Porsche Panamera will begin from today, the German brand has announced as the third-gen model makes its India debut. At the international unveiling of the new Panamera, Porsche had said that bookings were to begin shortly, and as we'd reported then, the new Panamera for India will only be available with the V6 engine; it is priced at Rs 1.7 crore.
- New Panamera V6 gets 353hp and 500Nm of torque
- Does 0-100kph in 5.1secs; top speed of 272kph
- Gets matrix LED headlights, 8-way powered front seats, 12.3-inch touchscreen
The new Panamera is powered by a 353hp, 500Nm, 2.9-litre V6 turbo-petrol that sends power to the rear wheels via an 8-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox. Porsche claims a 0-100kph time of 5.1 seconds, and a top speed of 272kph. The Panamera now gets the adaptive air suspension, which Porsche calls Active Suspension Management (PASM), as standard.
The Rs 1.7 crore price tag is, of course, ex-showroom, India, and without all the options and accessories. Standard equipment on the Panamera includes matrix LED headlights, parking assistance, a driving mode selector on the steering wheel, a full-HD 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment, a cooled smartphone compartment with wireless charging, an 8-way adjustable electric seats and eight airbags; 10.9-inch front passenger display is an optional extra.
In V6 form, the Panamera doesn’t have a direct rival in the country. However, when Porsche brings the Panamera V8s here, those will compete with the Rs 3.3 crore Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S E Performance 4-door coupe. The hybrid versions of the Panamera will not be coming to the country.
