New Delhi: Panasonic Life Solutions India (PLSIND), a diversified technology company, has announced the launch of its 2026 lineup of Residential Air Conditioners (RACs) designed to address India’s extreme weather conditions.
The new Panasonic ACs portfolio focuses on durability, energy efficiency, and climate-resilient cooling solutions tailored for Indian households.
Addressing one of the most persistent challenges impacting AC performance in Indian homes, the new range introduces Panasonic’s DustBuster Technology, an “auto reverse-flow” fan mechanism designed to automatically expel dust from the outdoor unit.
The feature helps maintain consistent cooling performance, improved efficiency, and long-term durability in harsh climatic conditions.
The 2026 RAC portfolio includes 57 new models across multiple segments and price points, combining performance, energy efficiency, and smart functionality to meet evolving consumer needs across the country.
