Great driving experience

This car offers luxury at an unbeatable price. The comfort is top-notch, making every ride enjoyable. The driving experience is simply awesome and refined feel. A perfect choice for those who want style, comfort, and a thrilling drive.

Has enough power for Indian roads

Bought the car from the Mumbai showroom in December 2023 and it has been a great journey since. Over 1 year of my ownership it has been the best experience. It has enough power for Indian roads and is a great pleasure to drive. The rear seat comfort is a bit on the low side but the engine and driving dynamics make up for it. All the Porsche staff are amazing to deal with and always there to help.
