The electric Porsche Macan will arrive; at the end of 2023 as & egrave; recently emerged during Porsche Italy's year-end conference. This is a very important model for the German manufacturer who is aiming more and more; on the electrification of its range of cars, also thanks to the excellent sales results of the Taycan. Porsche is therefore continuing the development of the new battery-powered SUV that, now, & egrave; was again intercepted on the road during the tests that the brand is conducting in Northern Europe on the snow.
NOT REPLACE? THE ENDOTHERMAL MODEL
Tests in extreme climatic conditions are very important for all manufacturers since they allow the mechanics of cars to be put to the whip. In the case of the electric they are even more; important since & egrave; You can thoroughly test the batteries and recharge in very low temperatures.
The new photos spy show a still heavily camouflaged SUV. For example, you can & ograve; note how Porsche has placed a fake grille in an attempt not to make it clear that it is an electric vehicle. The manufacturer has also placed fake tailpipes at the rear. The images, however, allow you to get an idea of the shapes of the car and the design of the front light clusters of the new electric Macan (four upper LED elements for the daytime running lights) and of the rear ones that have similarities with those of the Taycan. The interiors are not seen but past photos had allowed us to take a first look at the cockpit where there were two large displays. The first for the instrumentation and the second, central, for the actual infotainment.
The new electric SUV pogger & agrave; on the EPP platform develops together with Audi. Platform that supports 800V architecture to enable ultra-high power charging. As stated by Porsche, the electric Macan will not go; to replace the endothermic model given its importance. The electricity, therefore, initially will go to support the version with combustion engine.
If we can already have the design and the interior; get a first idea, there & # 39; & egrave; still uncertainty regarding the powertrain. Certainly different variants will be proposed as is already the case; today on the Taycan. However, Porsche already has; made it known that the electric Macan will be able to have greater autonomy than the Taycan . This could mean new and better engines. efficient and higher capacity batteries. All that remains is to wait for the arrival of further news on the development of this electric SUV of the German brand.
