With the new entry level Macan EV, the prices have dropped significantly and now the range starts at Rs 1.22 crore and goes all the way up to Rs 1.68 crore (ex-showroom). Let's take a detailed look at everything that has been introduced in these new variants.
Porsche Macan Electric: Base-spec
The newly introduced entry level variant of the Macan Electric gets a single rear axle motor which produces up to 360 PS and 563 Nm. The entry level Macan Electric has significantly reduced its overall weight by 110 kg, by making way for a single motor setup, and ditching the all-wheel drivetrain. It can sprint from a standstill to 100 kmph in 5.7 seconds and achieves a top speed of 220 kmph. The Macan electric has a claimed WLTP driving range of 641 km.
So if you want a Macan with primary focus on efficiency and range, the rear-wheel drive base-spec Macan is the one for you.

Porsche Macan EV: Off-road Design Package
Porsche has also introduced an optional off-road design package which further improves the daily rideability of the Macan EV, especially in a country like ours. This package gets redesigned bumpers which increases the approach angle to up to 17.4 degrees, to help go over those really scary speed breakers. With the adaptive air suspensions completely raised up, the Macan EV gets a higher ground clearance of 195 mm (10 mm more than the standard).
The off-road design package can be opted for, at an additional cost of Rs 2.04 lakh and Rs 2.52 lakh if opted for in the exterior body shade.
Porsche has also introduced a new exterior shade for the Macan EV: Slate Grey Neo and the off-road package in Vesuvius Grey, with new set of 20-inch and 21-inch alloy wheels on offer.

But what’s new are the design of the screens for all Macan models as they now get a new ‘emotional’ welcoming animation, and new themes for the apps, which allow colour adjustment for the background of the displays. You can even match the ambient lighting with the exterior colour with 12 hues to choose from.
