The new Macan entry model to the all-electric SUV world of Porsche also gets its energy from a high-voltage battery with a gross energy content of 100 kWh.

Propulsion is provided exclusively by the rear-axle motor that is used in the Macan 4, with a diameter of 210 millimetres, an active length of 200 mm and output of 250 kW (340 PS).

The electric motor has a 480-amp pulse inverter (PWR) in which the highly efficient semiconductor material silicon carbide (SiC) is used to provide higher efficiency.

It significantly reduces switching losses in the PWR and enables higher switching frequencies.

In combination with Launch Control, the Macan produces up to 265 kW (360 PS) of overboost power, and the maximum torque is 563 Nm.

From a standing start, the car reaches the 100 km/h mark in 5.7 seconds and has a top speed of 220 km/h.

By forgoing all-wheel drive, the Macan is 110 kilograms lighter than the Macan 4 and therefore requires less electricity for propulsion.

This results in a combined WLTP range of up to 641 km.
