Early reviews for the Macan 4 Electric are in, and they're strongly positive. Automotive blog Auto Express awarded the forthcoming midsize SUV 4.5/5.0 stars, praising its cutting-edge technology, carefully crafted cabin, and sharp, approachable driving dynamics. "It all adds up to make this one of the best all-round electric cars on the market," wrote the editors.
Ten years after its launch, the Porsche Macan is heading into a bold new direction, now in all-electric form. Through its progressive, timeless design, characteristic Porsche performance, range suitable for everyday use, and high level of practicality, the new Macan 4 and Macan Turbo aim to completely fulfill the requirements of Porsche customers choosing an SUV.
The numbers alone indicate top-class E-Performance. In combination with Launch Control, the Macan 4 produces up to 402 hp of overboost power, while the Macan Turbo generates up to 630 hp. A maximum torque of 479 and 833 lb-ft, respectively, enables strong acceleration. The Macan 4 accelerates from a standstill to 60 mph in 4.9 seconds, while the Macan Turbo takes just 3.1 seconds. The two models achieve top track speeds of 136 and 161 mph, respectively.
The lithium-ion battery can be charged from 10 to 80 percent within approximately 21 minutes at a compatible fast-charging station under ideal conditions. Regenerative braking allows up to 240 kW of power to be recuperated via the electric motors while driving.
Both the Macan 4 and the Macan Turbo have all-wheel drive. The two electric motors are controlled via the power electronics in almost real-time. The electronically controlled Porsche Traction Management (ePTM) operates around five times faster than a conventional all-wheel drive system and can respond to wheelspin within 10 milliseconds.
Macan 4 and the Macan Turbo are available for pre-order now and will arrive at Isringhausen Porsche in the fourth quarter of this year. Speak with your Isringhausen client advisor for more information.
