Yahoo Autos The Electric 2024 Porsche Macan From Every Angle
Porsche has sold more than 800,000 units of its Macan crossover since 2015, with the little SUV consistently topping the brand’s sales charts while racking up accolades. Now the second-generation Macan is here, and it’s only going to be available with a fully electric powertrain. Simply called the 2024 Macan, Porsche promises the Macan EV will remain the sportiest choice in its segment.
The electric Macan is launching in two trims, Macan 4 and Macan Turbo, both of which have dual motors and all-wheel drive. The 402-horsepower Macan 4 will hit 60 mph in 4.9 seconds while the 630-hp Macan Turbo needs just 3.1 seconds, and every Macan EV comes standard with air suspension and is available with other advanced chassis features like rear-wheel steering. Its 800-volt PPE platform offers 270-kW charging capability, with EPA ranges likely to exceed 300 miles, and the interior is more practical and tech-filled.
