First, it is not a Macan E, nor is it a Macan Electric. Porsche only refers to it as the “new Macan.” No name affix, just Porsche Macan. That should clarify that the electric model is not just an addition to the combustion-powered Macan (which will continue to be offered for now) but the replacement. “Our bestseller is going electric,” said Porsche boss Oliver Blume at the premiere in Singapore. However, to avoid confusion in sales, the new model is labelled “Electric” in the configurator.
