Here’s a full gallery of the all-new Porsche Macan, which is now an electric vehicle (EV) that made its global debut back in January this year and was later previewed in Malaysia in June. Sime Darby Auto Performance (SDAP) is offering the Macan in four variants, with the one you see here being the range-topping Turbo that carries a recommended retail price (RRP) of RM635,000.
Below the Turbo is the Macan 4S at RM525,000, the Macan 4 at RM445,000 and the entry-level Macan at RM430,000. With the current EV incentives in place, the fully electric Macan is priced lower than the first-generation, internal combustion model that currently retails for between RM469,000 and RM895,000.
Underpinned by the Premium Platform Electric (PPE), the Macan features an 800V electrical architecture and is available with rear-axle steering (a first for the Macan) and Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV Plus). The Turbo and Macan 4S get two-valve air suspension dampers as standard, which are part of the Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) electronic damping control system.

Compared to its predecessor, the second-generation Macan is a much larger vehicle at 4,784 mm long (+58 mm), 1,938 mm wide (+11 mm), 1,622 mm tall (+26 mm) and with a wheelbase that spans 2,893 mm (+86 mm).
The larger body sees an increase in rear boot space to 540 litres from 488 litres, and with the 40:20:40 split-folding rear seats down, the capacity increases to 1,348 litres. You also get a frunk with 84 litres of space that can be opened by simply waving your hand over the Porsche emblem – this method also opens the EV’s two charge doors
Inside, the Macan sports up to three displays, with the 12.6-inch curved instrument cluster and 10.9-inch central touchscreen being standard, while the 10.9-inch front passenger touchscreen is optional. There’s also a head-up display with augmented reality that can project an image that appears to the driver at a distance of 10 metres and corresponds to the size of an 87-inch display.
Porsche Communication Management (PCM) is the infotainment system used in the Macan and is based on Android Automotive OS, with available functions being a digital voice assistant (“Hey Porsche”), downloadable apps and deep integration of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Naturally, buyers will have no shortage of options to choose from, with the catalogue consisting of numerous paint finishes, wheel designs, interior packages, accent packages and other equipment. Pre-orders for the Macan have been open since the preview, so get in touch with SDAP to spec your car to your taste.
