New Delhi: Porsche Macana Electric has been outselling the ICE this year, mostly because in Europe, the fuel-powered version is no longer sold in the European Union. With the ICE Macan being retired in 2026, it will leave it unchallenged within the setup. There is a fuel-powered crossover with a different name that is in development but won’t debut until 2028. As all this is happening, Zuffenhausen have decided to expand their EV portfolio.
Coming in as an all-wheel-drive, the Macan GTS will sit between the 4S and Turbo, taking the latter’s electric. Porsche have claimed that it has a combined output of 509 horsepower, which rises to 563 bhp with launch control and will have 954 Nm of instant torque since it's an EV. It can do 0-100 kph in just 3.6 seconds. The Turbo, though, is still half a second quicker.
The GTS comes with the Sport Chrono Package, Torque Vectoring Plus and an air suspension that has been tuned just for this version. It comes with the lowest centre of gravity across all Macan Electric and also has the optional extra of being fitted with rear-wheel steering. Porsche have also fine-tuned the dampers and roll bars in order to deliver a far better driving experience.
Like all other GTS models, it comes with black exterior accents as well as tinted headlights and taillights. Porsche have got a standard Sport Design Package with a reworked front and rear fascias. The GTS comes with it first but starting summer 2026, it will roll out across all Macan EV versions.
Macan GTS Electric comes with more muscular rocker panels and also gets Lugano Blue in the colour options alongside Carmine Red and Chalk. Buyers have an option of 15 standard colours and around 60 more through Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur. It gets Standard 21-inch wheels that can be upgraded to a 22-inch set finished in Anthracite Grey.
True to the Porsche heritage, HTS gets a new GTS interior Package coming with contrast stitching that matches the exterior paint when finished in Carmine Red, Slate Grey Neo or Lugano Blue. There is also a GTS logo that is added to the steering wheel and instrument cluster. This, though, only comes integrated in the carbon fibre interior trim.
With the world going electric, it is an interesting option to have, and Porsche are capitalising on their EV portfolio’s growth. Porsche Macan is a much more affordable option from the brand than the Cayenne and has always been a popular option for the brand since its launch.
