2024 Porsche Macan EV: What’s New?

The 2024 Porsche Macan is not merely an all-electric version of the automaker’s popular crossover SUV. It leverages a bespoke Premium Platform Electric (PPE) 800-volt architecture and comes equipped with proven performance merits, like dual electric motors, active aerodynamics, and optional rear-wheel steering.

“In many ways, we are taking a very successful SUV to a new level,” said Jörg Kerner, Vice President of the Macan product line at Porsche Cars North America, Inc. “We aim to offer the sportiest model in its segment with the all-electric Macan.”

2024 Porsche Macan Electric Powertrain

The 2024 Porsche Macan will arrive at U.S. dealerships in two flavors: Macan 4 and Macan Turbo, both with dual electric motors. The Macan 4 has 402 horsepower and 479 lb-ft. of torque. Meanwhile, the hotrod Macan Turbo generates 630 horsepower and 833 lb-ft. of torque, more than a BMW iX M60.

Porsche set the bar high in the performance electric segment with the Taycan. It’s doing the same with the Macan EV. For perspective, the Macan Turbo has more horses than the Lotus Eletre, an electric vehicle that Lotus calls a hyper SUV.

In addition, the Macan Turbo features Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV Plus). The system functions like an electronic differential lock on the rear axle to improve traction, handling, and stability.
