When you have the choice between EV and ICE, the decision is clear.
The Porsche Taycan is one of the most desirable EVs on the market, quick and lovely and yet somehow practical, too. But, with less than 250 miles of range on a charge and a starting price of at least $90,000, it’s not exactly a mainstream car.
Porsche’s next EV might get a little closer. Meet the electric Macan, which for a time at least will live along-side the gasoline-powered Macan. Porsche doesn’t have all the details to share yet, but this battery-powered SUV will offer upwards of 600 horsepower in a similar, crossover SUV shell. Range? That hasn’t been determined, but I was told it will go “a lot” farther on a charge than the Taycan.
What it will cost, though, remains to be seen. The Macan is one of Porsche’s most attainable cars, starting at just over $60,000, but the all-electric version is liable to be rather more dear than that. What’s it like to drive? Even though it isn’t finished, it’s already a hoot. Come onboard for a spin.
