Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo India Launch Details Revealed
Porsche is all set to launch the Panamera Sport Turismo in the Indian market.
German car maker Porsche is all geared up to introduce the Panamera Sport Turismo in the Indian market.
Autocar India reports that the Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo will be launched in the country in January 2018. Similar to the regular Panamera, the Sport Turismo will be offered with a turbocharged engine.
Porsche has already commenced the bookings this month, and the Panamera Turbo Sport Turismo is priced at Rs 2.08 crore ex-showroom (India). Porsche will also launch the Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Sport Turismo, which will go on sale with a price tag of Rs 2.38 crore ex-showroom (India).

The Sport Turismo is the shooting brake version of the Panamera which features a raked roofline, larger tailgate, additional boot space of 50 litres and low loading sill. The estate will be offered in a 4+1-seater configuration.
Another prominent highlight of the Sport Turismo is the adaptive roof spoiler which is offered as standard. Depending on the vehicle speed and settings, the spoiler will generate an additional 50kg of rear downforce.
The Panamera Sport Turismo draws power from a 4-litre turbocharged V8 engine producing 541bhp and 770Nm of torque. The engine comes mated to an 8-speed PDK gearbox sending power to all four wheels. The Panamera Turbo Sport Turismo can sprint from 0-100km/h in just 3.6 seconds.
The hybrid variant of the Panamera Sport Turismo is equipped with an electric motor producing 136bhp which is coupled to the same 4-litre V8 engine. The combined power output stands at a whopping 677bhp and 850Nm of torque. The vehicle also offers a pure electric range of 49km.
The Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid Sport Turismo is the fastest Panamera ST and can sprint from 0-100km/h in 3.4 seconds before topping out at 310km/h. Porsche will offer air-suspension as standard, and the rear-wheel steering will be an optional feature.
DriveSpark Thinks!
Porsche is all set to enter the niche segment of estate cars in the Indian market with the Panamera Turbo Sports Turismo. The German car maker will also launch the third-gen Cayenne in India by June 2018. Porsche is certainly not aiming for big sales number in India as the estate cars are not so popular in the country.
