Men’s Journal: Macan Turbo Electric Is “the First Electric SUV That Actually Feels Like a Porsche”
The m“If you still think ‘real’ Porsches need pistons and a turbo, the Porsche Macan Turbo EV is here to disabuse you," proclaims the Men's lifestyle magazine.
Men’s Journal — the men’s lifestyle magazine known for its coverage of fitness, gear, travel, and style — just published a glowing review of the new Porsche Macan Turbo Electric, going so far as to call it “the first electric SUV that actually feels like a Porsche.”
The magazine opens with a challenge to traditionalists: “If you still think ‘real’ Porsches need pistons and a turbo, the Porsche Macan Turbo EV is here to disabuse you.” It goes on to highlight the EV’s staggering performance: “Porsche’s own Macan Turbo Electric spec sheet lists up to 630 horsepower and 833 lb-ft of torque from a dual-motor setup and 95-kWh battery, all shoved through all-wheel drive and an 800-volt electrical system. You don’t just leave stoplights; you detonate out of them.”
Men’s Journal also makes a compelling case for current Macan owners: “If you own a gas Macan, the Porsche Macan Turbo EV is the upgrade that makes your current keys feel old the second you floor it.” The review praises its blend of performance and practicality, noting: “You get supercar shove, real highway range, and a cabin that still looks and smells like a Porsche, without the fuel stops or the drama at cold start. If you’re shopping for a fast family SUV and tempted to grab one last gas hit, this is the fork in the road: stick with yesterday’s powertrain, or buy into the quicker, quieter Macan that other guys will watch shoot away from a light and swear had to be a 911.”
