The Porsche Macan Electric proves that the preceding Taycan was no fluke.

Porsche's second foray into EVs, the Macan Electric is a rousing success. With the company's trademark handling and power, it's a compact athlete that is sure to bring joy to your daily commute and excitement to your favorite roads.

Verdict: With few rivals, the Macan Electric an easily recommendable choice for performance-minded drivers looking for an electric car.

9/10

The Macan is Porsche's compact SUV offering, supporting the midsize Cayenne since it debuted in 2015. It's been one of the company's best-sellers thanks to continuous updates throughout its production run, and with the introduction of an all-electric variant for the 2024 model year, it's not only Porsche's second SUV, but also Porsche's second electric vehicle, alongside the Taycan.

The Electric has plenty of similarities to the gas-powered Macan, but also some key differences. They're essentially the same size, with the Electric version measuring about two inches longer than the standard Macan. Up front, the clamshell hood makes way for a more conventional bonnet, with a small frunk underneath. The top headlight area is narrower and only houses the LED accent lights, with the actual headlights mounted below in a blacked-out section that looks like an air intake from a distance. As an electric car with minimal powertrain cooling needs, this Macan can get away with a smaller grille that's mounted under what we'd traditionally consider the front bumper.

The result is a more modern and sleek appearance. While the standard Macan was already appropriately sporty looking, the Electric pushes that athleticism even further. It's helped by a protruding front air dam that gives the Macan Electric a more hunkered-down attitude, as if it's ready to ravenously inhale the pavement laid in front of it.

From the side, the Macan Electric is more streamlined, with a rear roofline that tapers gracefully to a more rounded rear end. The regular Macan's rooftop spoiler is also absent, further accentuating the cleaner and more aerodynamic styling. The taillights are set into a light bar that spans the hatch and curves around the corners.

Aside from the lack of tailpipes, there's really not much to signal that this Macan is an EV. As both an EV and an SUV, some Porsche purists might have previously complained that the Macan Electric isn't a "real" Porsche but, we can assure you, it most certainly is. There's enough of the carmaker's storied history still present in its exterior design, as well as on the inside, and we haven't even gotten around to how it drives.

The front seats retain the familiar shape that originated with the Porsche 911 sports car, while the digital instruments have hints of the traditional three-gauge layout from that model. More importantly, the Macan is built to the same standard, with premium materials adorning almost every surface, over a construction that feels as though it was carved from a solid chunk of steel. The only thing we'd change is the piano black center console, which is a magnet for fingerprints and dust, and is also prone to annoying reflections in the midday sun.
