Design & Exterior

One glance and you know it’s a Porsche, but with a futuristic twist. The Macan 4S Electric sports a sleek, coupe-like roofline and muscular haunches. Up front, the signature four-point LED daytime running lights sit above main headlights integrated into the bumper – a very cool touch. Frameless doors and active aerodynamic elements enhance its sporty, modern appeal. Dimensionally, it measures 4784 mm in length, 1938 mm in width, and stands 1622 mm tall, giving it a purposeful, planted stance. Specific 4S badging subtly hints at its potent capabilities.

Interior, Tech & Cargo

Inside the Macan 4S Electric, it’s pure Porsche precision with a digital-first approach. High-quality materials and impeccable fit-and-finish create a luxurious yet sporty vibe. Passengers enjoy ample space, with a driver-focused cockpit featuring a stunning curved 12.6-inch instrument display and a 10.9-inch central touchscreen. An optional passenger display is also available. Tech-wise, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard. For your gear, there's a useful 540-litre boot, expanding to 1348 litres with seats down, plus a handy 84-litre frunk under the bonnet.

Performance & Driving Experience

Get ready for some serious shove! The Macan 4S Electric, with its dual PMSM motors (one front, one rear), delivers a potent 330 kW and a massive 820 Nm of torque through its all-wheel-drive system. This translates to a blistering 0-100 km/h sprint in just 4.1 seconds and a top speed of 240 km/h. Expect razor-sharp Porsche handling, aided by sophisticated chassis tech like adaptive air suspension (often standard or a key option on 4S), making it feel agile despite its SUV form. Multiple regenerative braking modes allow for tailored one-pedal driving experiences.

Range, Battery & Charging

The Macan 4S Electric packs a substantial 95 kWh usable battery (100 kWh nominal), translating to a Green Cars Compare estimated real-world range of 472 km. Energy consumption is rated at a respectable 4.97 km/kWh. Thanks to its 800V architecture, DC fast charging is rapid, maxing out at 270 kW, meaning a 10-80% top-up can be done in well under 25 minutes. At a 400V station, it still pulls 135 kW. For home charging, the standard 11 kW on-board AC charger replenishes the battery fully in around 9 hours via its CCS Type 2 port.

Safety & Driver-Assistance Features

While specific Euro NCAP ratings for the electric Macan are pending, Porsche has a strong track record for safety. The Macan 4S Electric is loaded with advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS). Expect features like adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, blind-spot monitoring, and sophisticated collision avoidance systems to be available, with many crucial active safety features likely standard on this premium trim. Porsche’s chassis control systems also contribute significantly to active safety, keeping things tidy even when you’re pushing on.

Warranty & Maintenance Coverage

Porsche typically offers a 2-year, unlimited kilometre vehicle warranty in Europe for the Macan 4S Electric. Crucially, the high-voltage battery is covered for 8 years or 160,000 kilometres, whichever comes first, with a guarantee against excessive degradation (usually to 70% state of health). Powertrain components often align with this battery warranty. While complimentary maintenance schedules vary by region, Porsche's reputation for engineering excellence suggests solid reliability. EVs generally require less routine maintenance than their combustion counterparts, adding to the appeal.
