Panasonic unveils 21 new LED TVs under P-Series starting at Rs 17,990

Panasonic, on Friday, August 7, launched its P-series featuring 21 new LED models, including the flagship ShinobiPro-MiniLED range, designed with smart features and immersive sound. The P-Series TV range is priced between Rs 17,990 and Rs 399,990. The newly introduced models include 4K Studio colour engines, Full HD and HD that cater to a variety of consumers. Panasonic claims that the series will provide users with a premium and high-quality viewing experience. The devices feature Hexa Chroma Drive, a technology developed by Panasonic to increase colour accuracy, and Accuview display for an immersive viewing experience. When it comes to audio, they include Dolby Atmos with 66W speakers, a woofer, and a built-in home theatre with tweeters. The series also supports Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) for gaming and runs on Google TV. The design has an 8.13 cm 'Flat Fit' profile to reduce the gap from the wall. Fumiyasu Fujimori, managing director of Panasonic Marketing India, said, 'With the new P Series, we're bringing personalised entertainment to every family, from the immersive brilliance of large 4K screens to the sleek versatility of compact smart TVs.' According to Fujimori, this launch reflects the company's commitment to delivering cutting-edge, future-ready TVs that elevate shared moments into extraordinary experiences. The broader P-Series features technologies such as MEMC, DTS TruSurround, built-in Chromecast, and bezel-less designs. The ShinobiPro concept is built around four principles: precision for clear visuals and processing, motion handling with a 120 Hz refresh rate, balanced audio, and design integration into living spaces. Complementing it further are Panasonic soundbars that feature technologies such as Dolby Digital Plus, 3D surround sound, and touch control, to name a few. These soundbars range from 160W (2.1) to 600W (5.1), starting from INR 12,990. Panasonic has based the ShinobiPro series on the legendary agility, stealth, and tactics of ninjas. The new line aims to bring a new level of precision, motion, sound, and design to the consumer electronics market.

Triumph Thruxton 400 debuts in India:Retro Racer for the Modern Rider

The revered Thruxton name returns to Triumph's portfolio with the launch of the all-new Thruxton 400, a motorcycle that brings classic café racer styling to a new generation of riders. Making its global debut in India, this latest addition to Triumph's Modern Classic range, combines heritage design with contemporary engineering and performance. The Thruxton 400 draws (its) inspiration from the original Thruxton racers of the 1960s, yet this new iteration is purpose-built for modern-day streets. Its design captures the essence of a true café racer with low-slung clip-on handlebars, a sculpted fuel tank with knee recesses, bar-end mirrors, and a colour-coded rear seat cowl that completes its streamlined silhouette. From the front fairing to the slim, upswept tail section, the Thruxton 400 has the poised stance of a classic racer, with just the right touch of modernity. At the heart of the machine is the proven TR-Series 398cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine. Tuned for more performance, it produces 42 PS, making it the most powerful in its segment. The refined top-end performance adds a more thrilling character to the ride, while still maintaining smooth and usable power delivery across the rev range. The Thruxton 400 also gets its own dedicated chassis, distinct from the Speed 400 and Scrambler 400X. It features a revised suspension setup aimed at delivering a sportier and more committed ride. With 43mm USD front forks and a twin shock setup at the rear, Triumph promises sharper handling and greater rider engagement, especially when tackling twisty roads or quick city runs. Modern technology is subtly integrated into the Thruxton's otherwise retro appeal. It features a ride-by-wire throttle for precise response, switchable traction control for added safety, and a torque-assist clutch for reduced effort in traffic. While the styling stays true to its roots, these features bring it firmly in line with today's expectations for everyday usability. Attention to quality and finish remains a core part of the Thruxton 400's appeal. From its deep gloss paint schemes to the brushed metal touches and precise detailing, the bike carries forward Triumph's reputation for premium craftsmanship. The use of high-quality components and thoughtful engineering also means that the Thruxton 400 benefits from class-leading service intervals, reducing the cost of ownership and long-term maintenance. The Thruxton 400 is expected to resonate strongly with younger enthusiasts looking for a bike that blends old-school charm with modern-day performance. With the Indian motorcycle market already responding positively to the 400cc Modern Classic range, the Thruxton's unique proposition as a focused café racer adds another layer of excitement. The new Triumph Thruxton 400 is priced at ₹2,74,137 (ex-showroom). Motorscribes, in association with The Hindu, brings you the latest in cars and bikes. Follow them on Instagram on @motorscribe
