Undoubtedly one of the pillars of the German automaker, the Porsche Macan will soon be electric, and photos of the vehicle on the road have leaked.
It is currently only available as a combustion engine, but not for much longer. Porsche Macan has been photographed multiple times. In the leaked images, we can see that the vehicle is not at all camouflaged, except for the front face logo area and the right end of both front doors. This allows us to get a precise idea of the vehicle’s shape, which closely resembles the Macan with an internal combustion engine — unsurprising, as only the powertrain will change.
What are the obvious differences between electric and combustion versions?
Between the Taycan and Macan, there are few differences, notably the lights, which will now be divided into two parts, with one on the top and the other below. Elsewhere on the vehicle, many similarities with the Taycan can be observed. Regarding power and range, no official data has been released yet. However, an idea of the power can already be inferred since the vehicle will be built on the same platform as the Audi Q6 e-tron. Approximately 550/600 horsepower is expected for the Macan.
What’s the future for the Porsche Macan with an internal combustion engine?
For now, there’s no need to worry about the German automaker’s combustion engine Macan. The EU plans to stop the production of combustion vehicles by 2035. However, there are still about ten years until that happens. Additionally, it should be considered that Porsche customers are fond of combustion engines, and transitioning to electric or hybrid models will take time. Porsche is well aware of this, which is why the production of the combustion engine Macan will not be stopped for now. However, according to Carscoop, the manufacturer has warned American dealerships that, depending on sales figures, the decision to discontinue the combustion engine Macan in 2025 or 2026 is under consideration.
The vehicle is expected in 2024 on the old continent.
