Up to 398 WLTP miles and less than £70k for new entry point to electric Macan range

has been bolstered with what’s likely to be the two biggest sellers: the Macan 4S, and plain ready salted Macan.

It’s the latter that’s probably of most interest, the rear-drive model that promises the maximum range and efficiency from the battery powered SUV. Broadly speaking it appears to be a two-wheel drive Macan 4, using that car’s 340hp rear-axle motor without any drive going to the front. Maximum torque is 415lb ft, and a 360hp overboost will see 62mph come up in 5.7 seconds. Top speed is 137mph for the Macan - it’s likely going to feel fast enough.

Certainly looks cool, and that’ll count for a lot, seen here on an Oak Green Metallic Neo version of the new Macan 4S. It slots into the range between, offering up 516hp on overboost and 605lb ft for 4.1 seconds to 62mph. Top speed is 149mph, and 376 miles is the theoretical range on a charge.

Both the new models are available to order now, priced at £67,200 for the 340hp Macan and £75,400 for the 4S., currently our benchmark for performance EVs is priced at £65,000. We’ll aim to get a go in the Porsches as soon as they’re available - you wouldn’t bet against them being two more very competitive EVs.
