Porsche Launches New Macan EV At Rs 1.65 Crore: 5 Things You Need To Know

Porsche has launched the 2024 Macan EV, confirming that the nameplate will now be solely offered with an electric powertrain. It is the first all-electric SUV by Porsche and was launched in India immediately after its global debut. For now, you only get the bonkers Turbo variant, priced at Rs 1.65 crore (ex-showroom). But we expect lower-end versions to be available down the road. Here are five things you need to know about. The Macan might be instantly recognisable as one thanks to its familiar silhouette. However, there’s plenty new with certain design elements taking inspiration from the Taycan. That includes the new four-point LED DRLs, which get their own housing on top with the headlights located lower down the bumper.  Shifting to the side profile, the 2024 Macan flaunts new sporty five-spoke alloy wheels, which can be configured up to 22 inches in size. And moving on to the rear, you get a new set of connected LED tail lamps that increases its wow factor.

Another highlight is that it features an adaptive rear spoiler instead of one integrated above the rear windshield as seen in the ICE Macan. Inside, the cabin of the Porsche Macan EV is similar to that of the facelifted Cayenne, as its design closely resembles it. Displays galore as you get not one, but three screens for the driver, infotainment and co-driver. Thankfully, you still go get physical controls for operating the climate control. Another interesting touch is the ambient lighting along the dashboard, serving not only an aesthetic purpose but also functioning as communication lights for providing warnings and alarms.  The all-electric Macan is equipped with a triple-screen setup comprising a 12.6-inch digital driver’s display, a 10.9-inch touchscreen infotainment system, and another 10.9-inch display for the front passenger.
