Porsche fills out Macan EV lineup with rear-wheel drive models


The 4S model will be the lightest-weight version.

Porsche announced two new rear-wheel drive versions of the forthcoming Macan electric SUV, including a higher-powered, lighter-weight 4S model. Porsche says it will use a 480-amp pulse inverter with silicon carbide transistors “for increased efficiency.” While using Launch Control, it will get up to 265kW, or 355 horsepower. Porsche said the Macan EV will start at $77,295, which includes a $1,995 delivery fee but excludes tax, title, and dealership charges.
