Hirokazu Kamoda, Managing Director, Panasonic HVAC & CC India, said the portfolio aims to address rising urbanisation and harsher weather patterns with resilient, energy-efficient cooling solutions. Abhishek Verma, Head – Product Marketing & Planning, added that the expanded portfolio strengthens the company’s Make in India focus and penetration across metro, tier 2 and tier 3 markets.

Key features include MirAIe IoT-enabled connectivity with Matter support, nanoe active air purification, Converti8 adjustable cooling, AI-driven adaptive thermal comfort, and stabiliser-free operation. The ACs are designed to operate in ambient temperatures up to 55°C and deliver full cooling capacity at 48°C under test conditions.

The launch is being supported by a TVC campaign featuring brand ambassador MS Dhoni.
