Porsche Macan EV: These "spy" images confirm their test results

El Porsche Macan was model that consolidated the SUV offer of the German house. If with the Cayenne they gave a blow of effect and silenced mouths, with him the hegemony of him was confirmed. The problem is that the SUV segment is the first to succumb to “charms” of electrification and the Volkswagen Group doesn't want the Macan to miss a step. So, as we announced some time ago, the new one will host this technology in its range.

To shape the Porsche Macan EV the engineers from Stuttgart have been working for a while. As we already knew, it is developed on the new EPP platform that during the last years they have been designing. In fact, it will be the first model of the German consortium to be built on these "foundations". Now, to announce its arrival, the brand's marketing managers have published a series of "spy" photos of your validation tests.

The Porsche Macan EV has a clear objective: to be the sportiest model in the segment

If we take a look at the Spy pictures released by Porsche we can see several test mules. His "clothing" is a more or less dense camouflage layer, so talking about the possible design that the next generation of the Macan EV can wear is wasting time. Of course, everything indicates that the front, optical and some more design elements will be inspired by the strokes that the spectacular Taycan recently premiered.

The importance of the published material has to do with the technology revolving around the next Porsche Macan EV. Yes, because those responsible for the model want it to be a reference in its segment. To do this, together with the validation tests on roads open to traffic, they have carried out hundreds of hours of digital simulations. Not surprisingly, it still has millions of test miles to go, both in real life and virtually.

The next Porsche Macan will be fully electric

All this herculean effort will serve to adjust technical elements such as the 800 volt load or the reliability of the powertrain in adverse weather conditions. Amen of the weight containment necessary for its driving dynamics to be at a high level. In addition, we cannot forget that together with the Macan EV they will arrive internal combustion versions, so all of them still have to complete their technical verification process.

According to statements by Michael Steiner, executive member of the Board of Porsche…

"The endurance tests in closed test facilities and public roads under real-life conditions they remain indispensable to ensure that the vehicle's structure, operational stability and reliability of hardware, software and all functions meet our high quality standards."

You will have to arm yourself with patience, because his arrival is scheduled for the year 2023. However, spy photographers and the occasional indiscreet leak will cheer us up.
