Inside, the Macan EV gets a curved 12.6-inch digital instrument cluster and dual 10.9-inch screens, one in the centre console and the other on the passenger side.

The Macan EV is based on an 800-volt architecture and features a dual-motor setup. The Macan Turbo packs 630 BHP and 1,129 Nm, which enables the car to accelerate from 0-98 km/h in 3.1 seconds. It has a top speed of 259 km/h.

Porsche claims the Macan EV Turbo can cover 591 km on a single charge (WLTP cycle). The battery supports DC fast-charging speeds up to 270 kW and can be charged from 10-80% in 21 minutes.

The Macan EV also comes in an entry-level Macan 4 guise. However, Porsche India has not revealed the prices of this variant yet.
