Porsche 911

The 911 is inarguably the most coveted Porsche model available in India, as well as worldwide. Based on the VW Group’s MMB platform, the 911 rivals the likes of the Maserati GranTurismo, Mercedes AMG GT Coupe, BMW M8 Coupe and Aston Martin Vantage. Porsche 911 on road price is approximately between ₹2.31 crore and ₹4.39 crore, varying from city to city.

Few nameplates enjoy the fame and recognition that the Porsche 911 does. The German two seater sports car combines incredible real-world performance and drivability with a high-end interior that is laden with modern tech features and can accommodate two adults in comfort. There are two rear seats as well, but their usability remains limited due to lack of space. The Porsche 911 is available in up to 3 variants, with all of them being powered by six cylinder petrol engines.

Porsche 911 design and interior

The exterior of the Porsche 911 has the characteristic silhouette and stance one associates with the nameplate. Compared to the entry-level Carrera, the GTS features sportier wheel designs and bumpers, along with blacked-out trim that ramps up the aggression quotient. The Turbo S takes this a notch higher with the help of larger front intakes, dedicated rear intakes, an electronically-activated rear wing, and a sportier rear bumper with quad-exhaust tips. All variants come with sleek LED lighting, including the 911’s signature circular headlights.

The interior of the Porsche 911 looks suitably upmarket while sporting top-tier materials and fit-and-finish. The 911 GTS gets plenty of suede trim to enhance its sporty appeal, while premium leather upholstery is available across the range. Adding to the driver-centric approach are paddle shifters, sports seats, launch control, and a steering-mounted drive mode controller. Onboard technology includes a 12.65-inch instrument cluster and a 10.9-inch touch-infotainment system with Apple CarPlay compatibility. The 911 also offers dual-zone climate control, LED ambient lighting, a Bose audio system, adaptive dampers, and a heated steering wheel.
