Porsche Macan GTS Arrives With Pure Electric Performance

Porsche Macan GTS is the latest all-electric variant option to be offered.

The fifth variant of the Macan Electric lineup, the Macan GTS, sets new standards for agility and driving dynamics in the electric SUV segment. True to its iconic initialism, first seen on the 904 Carrera GTS of 1963, the Macan GTS stands out with distinctive styling, numerous dark-coloured accents, and highly refined performance hardware.

Electrified Performance Specifications

The Macan GTS delivers exceptional acceleration figures and robust power management:

• Maximum Power: It offers up to 420kW approx 571PS of overboost power with Launch Control, combining the 380kw output of the front and rear electric motors.
• Maximum Torque: The system generates a maximum torque of 955Nm.
• Acceleration: The sprint from 0 to 100km/h takes just 3.8 seconds, with 0 to 200km/h achieved in 13.3s.
• Top Speed & Range: Top speed is limited to 250km/h, and it offers a combined WLTP range of up to 586km.
• Charging: The 100 kWh high-voltage battery can be charged from 10-80% in just 21 minutes at a suitable fast-charging station, with a peak charging capacity of 270kW.

The Macan GTS shares the most powerful rear-axle electric motor in the series with the Macan Turbo, utilizing a highly efficient 900-amp silicon carbide (SiC) pulse inverter. The standard Sport Chrono Package now includes a track mode, familiar from the Taycan, which enhances sustained performance by increasing battery cooling and minimizing power loss.

Chassis and Driving Dynamics

The new Macan GTS is engineered for a sports car-like feel, featuring a rear-biased weight distribution of 48:52 and the lowest centre of gravity in the model line. Standard features contributing to its agility include:

• Sports Air Suspension: Specially refined with level control and Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM).
• Lowered Ride Height: The suspension features a 10mm lower ride height for improved cornering precision.
• Torque Vectoring: Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV Plus) with an electronically controlled rear differential lock enhances traction and agility.
  

The emotive character is enhanced by the Porsche Electric Sport Sound (PESS) feature, which offers two exclusive GTS-specific sound profiles for the ‘Sport’ and ‘Sport Plus’ modes.

Distinctive Styling and New Colours

The exterior is defined by signature Porsche GTS elements, including various black-painted details on the front, sides, and rear, and tinted Matrix LED headlights. The GTS will be the first Macan to receive the new Sport Design Package as standard, with GTS-specific styling.

The GTS is fitted with 21″ Macan Design alloy wheels in Anthracite Grey as standard. Three new exterior colours have been introduced with the GTS: the returning Crayon, the GTS-typical Carmine Red, and for the first time on a Macan, Lugano Blue.

Inside, the sporty theme continues with extended Race-Tex upholstery and elements finished in black smooth leather. For the first time on the Macan Electric, the optional GTS Interior Package allows for colour coordination between the exterior and interior, offering contrasting decorative stitching and carbon-fibre trim in Carmine Red, Slate Grey Neo, or Lugano Blue.

The Macan GTS also benefits from the latest updates across the model range, including the Porsche Digital Key, AI-supported Voice Pilot, expanded in-car gaming, and an increased maximum towing capacity of 2500kg.
