Greater Noida — India is about to get a generous splash of German horsepower as the Porsche World Road Show screeches into the Buddh International Circuit (BIC), Greater Noida from May 20 to 30, and it’s not your average test drive. Think less “dealer joyride,” more “James Bond training montage with five-star dinner.”
Hosted at India’s one and only FIA Grade 1 certified racetrack — which last echoed with MotoGP madness in 2023 and once heard the thunder of Formula One from 2011 to 2013 — this road show is a travelling temple for Porsche purists. And now, it’s bringing the gospel of speed to the subcontinent.
What’s the fuss?
Imagine a fleet of the fiercest four-wheeled beasts — the Porsche 911, 718, Panamera, Cayenne, Macan, and even the shockingly silent but speed-hungry Taycan — all lined up and begging to be unleashed by you. Not in traffic, not in parking lots, but on an actual racetrack… with real corners, real straights, and unreal bragging rights.
But wait, there’s more:
This isn’t just “come and see,” it’s “come and conquer” — with certified Porsche instructors guiding you through track laps, slalom sessions, and a bit of cheeky off-roading (because nothing says I’ve made it like flinging a Cayenne sideways through a dirt trail).
The Drive Plan (because “itinerary” is for tourists):
- Day 1:
- Check into a luxury hotel at 3 PM
- Stuff yourself silly at the welcome dinner (7:30 PM to 10 PM)
- Day 2:
- Get chauffeured to the BIC at 8 AM
- Burn rubber from 8:30 AM to 5 PM
- Catch your flight back, assuming you haven’t decided to stay forever
What’s in the ₹1,42,672 package?
- Airport pickup & drop (Delhi)
- 5-star overnight stay — single occupancy, because legends don’t share rooms
- All meals (yes, even that post-race cheesecake)
- Transfers to/from the track
- Full day of pure Porsche pandemonium
- And, of course, memories that’ll haunt your regular car forever
Terms & Caveats (because every dream has fine print):
- First come, first vroom
- Flights not included — this is a driving show, not a flying circus
- Full payment in advance — Porsche doesn’t run on “maybe”
- Safety rules are sacred — no stunts, no selfies mid-lap
- Event may be rescheduled if Mother Nature decides to hydroplane
Only 420 lucky participants will get this chance, across 10 adrenaline-fueled groups. So if you’ve got a need for speed, a love for leather seats, and a soft spot for Stuttgart, head to your nearest Porsche Centre and lock in your date with destiny.
