Porsche’s mini SUV has had a major revamp for 2024, and there’s one key difference - it’s gone fully ELECTRIC! Now that might sound like a bad thing to some but Porsche being Porsche has gone all out on the engineering of the new Macan.
Let’s have a closer look shall we. On the outside Porsche has done what they usually do and kept the design pretty similar to the previous car but still made some notable changes. Starting at the front the grille has been swapped for a larger lower air intake, and the new headlights are almost exactly the same as the Taycan.
From the side there’s not a huge difference to the current Macan but you can start to see one big change they have actually made. And that of course is the rear, you now have a much more squat looking rear-end which helps with the aerodynamics of the car, whether it looks better or not, we’ll leave that up to you.
On the inside the new Macan is again pretty similar to the Taycan, but that’s no bad thing is it? The driver gets a high resolution curved display as well as a large infotainment screen in the centre of the dash. Even the front passenger gets their own display that is perfect for watching Carwow on.
Then of course getting rid of the ICE version of the Macan does has some benefits, one of those being, performance. The entry-level dual-motor can produce 408hp, while the top-of-the-range Turbo can put down 640hp and an mind bending 1,130Nm of torque - that’s 80Nm more than the Taycan Turbo S! Porsche also claims it should be able to hit 60mph in just 3.3 seconds but we’ll see what it can really do in this video!
The new Macan will start at around £70,000, rising to around £95,000 for the Turbo edition. But is it worth it?! You’ll need to stick with Mat and see for yourself!

I’m happy to see everyone caught on to the airbags being optional. It’s not just Porsche; it’s literally all the big German brands money pinching their customers. I visited both of the Audi and Mercedes configurators online and saw that they were even charging for airbags. Literally outrageous, charging money for a life saving thing that should be standard. We must put pressure on these companies to give us basic things standard, especially when it comes to safety systems and assisted driving technology. I am fine if things like different leathers and wood trims are optional extras but an airbag? Unbelievable

Well, they kind of are. If you buy fish and chips you are paying for both the fish and the chips, and you can buy fish on its own or chips on their own so as analogies go that one doesn’t really work. Also worth pointing out rear side airbags were always an option on the macan and it does come as standard with rear curtain airbags

I think we are all fed a diet of "standard equipment as standard" IF it had every conceivable extra the price would be horrendous...no one would buy it ! Porsche had to reel the price level in to an acceptable amount and you pay for that. Porsche is hardly a family car and do you really really need airbags at every corner ? I am from a time not long past where it was a novelty to have a bag on the steering wheel never mind anywhere else !

I think it’s an EU thing, that’s not an available option on North American Macan EV. It would be interesting to know why, Europe typically has smaller cars and lower speed roads and therefore lower safety requirements for passengers maybe? Correct me if I’m wrong.

The liftoff regen is such a misunderstood concept even manufacturers like Porsche can't be honest about it. Regen on accelerator release is a way to remove the lag between acceleration and deceleration: you absolutely *can* coast with regen even at its maximum setting, you simply need to be more precise with the throttle, which is why on the motorway you would lower the regen, while in town or country roads you would increase the regen effect. Obviously if you drive more sportily you would prefer less regen so you have a wider accelerator curve and you would use the brake anyway.

I currently choose cars after searching by engine. That is, I like six-cylinder cars for both everyday use and special use. Of course, I also like some cars with a V8 or V12, but I personally don't want to drive a four-cylinder car. That means if I were shopping for the old Macan, I wouldn't choose the Golf GTi engine, unless I was shopping for my wife, and would choose the V6. For me, it's all about engine characteristics and the sound. And as I drive exclusively on public roads, there's only so much performance I can use safely, so the mega power models have pretty much lost the appeal they used to have. Now what? Moreover, I can see that for many people brand is no longer as important as tech. So, for everyday use why is someone going to choose a Macan Turbo for about 110-115k including options over say a Kia EV6 GT for about 65k fully loaded? Is the Macan Turbo really worth 50k more? Does a Macan really have significantly more cachet? In London, I see them everywhere, and so they're in no way special. They're just a nice, quality car. That's it. In the EV world, I think the established premium brands, except maybe Range Rover and of course Rolls-Royce are going to really struggle. The likes of Porsche are going to become tech brands, who are going to be asking double for their tech, which will be as out of date in less than a year as everyone else's. The days of choosing a car based on its beating heart will be over if all you can buy is an EV. As impressive as that electric motor is, for its power and efficiency in such a compact package, it is not going to motivate me to fork out the big bucks, and even if you could, you wouldn't open the bonnet to look at it or show it off. I used to buy Samsung phones, now I have an LG and my wife has a Xiaomi Redmi. I can't see me ever buying a Samsung again, even if the price was the same, as my last Samsung never got a single Android update. And I can't see me ever buying an Apple phone. While I'm not convinced by the likes of BYD, in the EV world at present I think it would be difficult to convince me to buy something other than a Tesla Model 3, especially new. Before all the negative press about EVs, I was thinking about dipping our toes into the world of EVs. I thought as city run-arounds, EVs could make a lot of sense, while reserving ICE for weekends. I was thinking about a used Model 3 Performance for myself, and a used MG 5 for my wife. Prices have dropped significantly since then, and now first gen Taycans are also very tempting. But I'm not going to buy any EV in the foreseeable future, especially not a Taycan with all its reported faults. I'm sticking with ICE until something significant changes, even for running around the city. The old Macan was as a car for every person as much as a Porsche could be. IMO, this new Macan is priced beyond what most people can stretch themselves to acquire. Not only do I expect the new Cayman/Boxsters to be similarly priced, IMO an EV sports car is an oxymoron. While well suited to achieving low 0-60 and 1/4 mile times, IMO a sports car requires an ICE and relatively low weight. Two-and-a-half tonnes for a Macan. That's the weight of a full-size Range Rover! And what about all the mandatory big brother and nanny tech from 2024? How easy is it to turn off lane keep assist?
