    Both would be rather impractical on Indian roads but the Porsche Cayenne SUV would be more suitable car for India.

    Well, they do. I’ ve seen a couple of porsches and lambos in the crowded cities of mumbai and chennai. But it aches to accept the fact that you rake out a fortune on a car and your heart skips as people make insane driving decisions. I wouldn’t recommend one, unless you only intend to take ur precious car for a drive when the city sleeps and be back before the dood wala reaches your door step :P

    It can handle the Porsche cars like Cayenne, Panamera and Boxster. Dont even imagine to drive a lamborghini on Indian roads

    I wouldn’t recommend it…

    Thing is, over here the speed humps are just protrusions of tar from the road, built as scaled down versions of the himalayas…

    Our car has a pretty decent ground clearance, but it still scrapes against those things..

    Granted, lambos can raise their ground clearance to handle speed humps, but even those systems won’t be able to cope with what we have here.

    Also, our roads are perpetually being dug up for some reason or another, but the guys never seem to complete the jobs, so i can’t really imagine supercsrs being happy on broken roads like those.

    Even average roads aren’t as smooth as you’d like them to be, because as any automotive enthusiast would know, supercars usually have a stiff suspension setup, so a road that i wouldn’t mind in an average car, i’d hate in a supercar…(even with adaptive suspension systems)

    Yet another thing is the traffic itself…

    One thing is that it’s totally stop and go (with more stops frankly speaking), so that’s giong to murder the fuel economy on a supercar…
    another is the way traffic behaves…

    Autos keep weaving around like fruitflies around fruit, buses and trucks plunge straight into the traffic, and everyone is in a hurry…

    Would you, having spent over a crore on a car, feel comfortable driving your car, not knowing what would happen next?
    All i’ll describe traffic here is that it’s just like a river…
    everything is swept along, blockages are handled in any random direction, it’s total entropy…

    but i will admit, we do have some pretty nice highways here, so i guess that’s where you’ll take the cars mostly…

    Does that answer your question…?

    The Lamborghini and the Porsche both would go terrific in India because they are meant to be used at high speeds.

    STRICTLY NOT ADVISABLE. The suspension of supercars is really low in order to give a better balance (center of gravity) at higher speeds. The portholes on the road will kill a Porsche or Lambo. Also, the people may just decide to damage your supercar for fun. Some a*sholes get cheap thrills from doing that especially in Delhi.
