The serene valleys and winding roads of Himachal Pradesh are echoing with the roar of some of the world's most luxurious supercars, as a convoy of 19 high-end vehicles makes its way through the region. This spectacular sight is part of the four-day Supercar Drive in Himachal, designed to promote luxury tourism in the state.
A Luxury Showcase In The Hills
Ferraris capable of reaching speeds of 314 km/h, along with Lamborghinis, Porsches, Jaguars, McLarens, Mercedes-Benzes, Audis, BMWs, and the Nissan GTR, are turning heads as they cruise through the hills; each car valued in crores of rupees, with price tags ranging from Rs 3.5 crore to Rs 10 crore.
The convoy, comprising nine cars from Mumbai and 10 from Chandigarh, converged in the picturesque town of Manali, accompanied by 24 drivers. Upon arrival at Span Resort, the group was warmly received by Manali MLA Bhuvneshwar Gaur, who hailed the event as a milestone for Himachal Pradesh.
'This marks a new beginning for luxury tourism in our state," said Gaur. 'We are proud that Himachal Pradesh has been chosen for this prestigious drive. The government stands in full support of such initiatives that showcase our state's beauty to a global audience."
From A Dream To Reality
For Praveen Sood, also known as Pintu, President of the Himalayan Extreme Sports Association and the event's local coordinator, the drive was the culmination of a long-held vision. 'We have been working for years to bring an event of this scale to Himachal. This drive is proof of our stunning landscapes, rich culture, and the hospitality we offer," he said.
Following Manali, the supercars are set to traverse the Atal Tunnel, an engineering marvel, and continue on to the breathtaking Lahaul Valley. This will be the first time such elite sports cars have navigated these challenging mountain routes, further underlining the adventurous spirit behind the event.

By attracting affluent travellers in search of extraordinary experiences, the initiative positions Himachal Pradesh as a unique destination where luxury and adventure coexist at the heart of the Himalayas.
