FIRST DRIVE: Porsche Macan Turbo - As Fast As A 911 GT3!

Рет қаралды 297,553

Күн бұрын

This is Porsche’s most important launch since the Mk1 Cayenne. Why? Because even as a decade-old model at the end of its life, Porsche shifted 87,355 units of its smaller SUV in 2023, just a few hundred shy of the Cayenne.
But now the second-gen Macan is going electric, and the buying public hasn’t wholly embraced EVs…
Perhaps more challenging still, while the last Macan was priced from £54k to £73k in the UK, the new one starts at £70k and runs up to exactly £95,000 for the range-topping Turbo model (which doesn’t have a turbocharger anywhere near it). Sure, you get more performance, but the last Macan was a (relatively) affordable entry point into practical Porsche ownership; the new one is only £600 cheaper than a Cayenne!
So it’s electric, and expensive.
Can the tech impress and the dynamics dazzle enough to tempt potential buyers? Top Gear Magazine’s Tom Ford has the answers…

Turbochargers started out rare, expensive, and definitely something to brag about with a big "Turbo" badge. Recently, so many gas engine vehicles have turbos that manufacturers often don't bother to promote that aspect. Now the badge "Turbo" doesn't even necessarily mean the car has one at all. Time marches on.

@giant23 3 ай бұрын

Emissions made turbos a common thing, if you don't have them your stuck with a slow small engine car. I don't like that they put "turbo" on an EV it makes no sense 🤦‍♂️ basically defeats the purpose of the term turbo in a turbo car.

It's an iconic, retro name that Porsche has been using for decades. They will continue using it, even when all cars are EVs as a reference to the past. In Porsche's world, 'Turbo' = most powerful model. Just get over it.

The thing is, like the Taycan, that the top spec models will feel exactly like the base model unless you're flooring it. And it's so quick that you can only do that on a track. Except no one takes their SUV onto a track. So the base model is the one to get.

9:11 - 4.2 miles per kwh to run the Macan 4! Let's talk about cost efficiency to run: Macan EV: Cost per mile = Cost per kWh / Miles per kWh = $0.25 / 4.2 miles/kWh = $0.0595 per mile Current Macan ICE: Assuming 20 mpg (approx last gen Macan) in which a gallon costs $3.89: Cost per mile = Cost per gallon / Miles per gallon = $3.89 / 20 miles/gallon = $0.1945 per mile Let's consider a hypothetical distance, say 100 miles: Macan ICE cost for 100 miles = $0.1945 per mile * 100 miles = $19.45 Macan EV cost for 100 miles = $0.0595 per mile * 100 miles = $5.95 So, over 100,000 miles, the electric vehicle would save approximately $14,526.24 compared to the gas-powered car. Assuming a depreciation of 50% (I'm being generous), that will offset depreciated value by roughly 16% over 100,000 miles of ownership.

I really wanted to try Macan EV but the headlight design is a big nono for me. Will stick with my 2021 GTS.

*Audi needs to cool their phone charging compartment too. The wireless charger in my RS Etron GT just cooks my iPhone and causes it to shut off ..I rarely use it for that reason and just use a USBC. Unfortunately, with your phone plugged in there is no good place to put it.*

IDK what you're talking about, I definitely just looked, and both the Macan and the Taycan here in the states is both offered, and base fitted, with natural leather, no veggie gluten free synthetic crap like you're implying, you can fit leather free options, but what I just said is still a fact 🤷‍♂️

Any news on PTS availability for new Macan?

@Bensonater11 3 ай бұрын

The reason I'd never get this (outside of depreciation), is that the Macan S (gas) is cheaper and faster than a Macan 4 (electric). And I'd never drop the money for a turbo.

@flyingpanhandle 3 ай бұрын

Yet, the Macan EV is cheaper if bought via salary sacrifice for higher earners like myself, while also being cheaper to run.

So how much does the battery degrade each year?

@h20dancing18 3 ай бұрын

First 3 years, 7-8%, first 10 years 10-12%. After that they just stop basically. Negligible after that

@anthonyrondolino8148 Ай бұрын

Dont underestimate how important the continued volume of Macan sales is to Porsche. The SUVs support their ability to produce the real sports car line. If this big gamble fails (very likely) the company has trouble.

@@Stricks823it looks nothing like an Urus but anyways. Wait until you learn that Volkswagen owns 75% of Porsche. Porsche owns 53% of Volkswagen. Volkswagen owns Audi, which in turn owns Lamborghini, Bentley and Ducati. Volkswagen also owns SEAT, Cupra, Skoda, many Chinese brands and MAN and Scania who make many trucks and buses in Europe.
