The highly anticipated all-electric Porsche Macan has officially arrived in Australia, marking a new era for the brand’s best-selling model. This is more than just an electrified version of the petrol Macan; it’s a vehicle built from the ground up on a new, cutting-edge platform. The Macan is the first model to use the Premium Platform Electric (PPE) architecture, co-developed with Audi. This advanced platform utilizes an 800-volt electrical system, which allows for incredibly fast DC charging speeds of up to 270 kW, meaning you can charge the battery from 10% to 80% in as little as 21 minutes at a compatible charging station.
The Australian lineup for the Macan consists of two powerful all-wheel-drive variants, both equipped with a 100 kWh (95 kWh usable) battery pack.
- The entry-level Macan 4 is a dual-motor all-wheel-drive model that delivers 300 kW of power and 650 Nm of torque with Launch Control engaged. It can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in a swift 5.2 seconds, with a WLTP driving range of up to 613 km.
- At the top of the range is the breathtaking Macan Turbo. This performance-focused variant is a true powerhouse, with a dual-motor setup that produces a staggering 470 kW of power and a massive 1,130 Nm of torque with Launch Control. This allows it to rocket from 0-100 km/h in a blistering 3.3 seconds, with a top speed of 260 km/h.
The Macan also features a host of advanced chassis technologies, including optional rear-axle steering and Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) with air suspension, to ensure a dynamic and engaging driving experience that is true to the Porsche brand.
In a rare move for the brand, Porsche Australia is currently offering special deposit contributions on the Macan Electric. Available until September 30, 2025, buyers can receive a $5,000 deposit contribution on all new and demonstrator Macan Electric models. Furthermore, an additional model-specific contribution of up to $5,000 is available for those who finance their purchase through Porsche Financial Services, bringing the total potential saving to $10,000. This is a limited-time opportunity to get into a new Macan with a significant discount.
