Porsche announces prices for 911 Turbo, Turbo S and GT3 in India

Porsche celebrated 50 years of its iconic 911 range by launching the all-new 991series this year at the Frankfurt Motor Show.  India got these cars a few weeks ago and for the first time along with the 911 Turbo and Turbo S, we get the race-bred GT3. The Stuttgart-based manufacturer kept a low profile launch in India, and has now provided the prices for India on its official website. 

The flagship of the 991 series, the 911 Turbo gets a twin turbo 3.8-litre straight six boxer engine with a rated power output of 520bhp with and torque figures of 660Nm and 710Nm in ‘overboost’ mode available in the Sport Chrono package. The Turbo gets a PDK only and all-wheel-drive (AWD). The top speed is a claimed 315kmph and achieves 0-100 kph in 3.4 seconds (3.2 secs in Sport +). It is priced at Rs 2.20 crore (Ex-showroom Delhi).

The fastest 911 on sale, the Turbo S, can be bought for Rs 2.67 crore. The Turbo S also gets the same engine as the turbo but has higher power ratings at 560bhp and 700Nm on tap which can go up to an insane 750Nm with overboost. Again AWD and PDK are standard and it can’t be bought with a manual gearbox. The Turbo S can achieve a top speed of 318 kmph and does the sprint to 100kmphfrom a standstill in 3.1 seconds.

The 911 GT3 makes made its Indian debut and is a purpose built track version based on the Carerra.
