2025 Porsche Macan 4S Electric Vs. 2025 Porsche Macan GTS
Two Macans, two different underpinnings, two separate fanbases; which compact Porsche crossover would you choose if you have a sub-90k budget?
For under 90k, should you choose the all-electric Macan 4S or the gas-powered Macan GTS?
Porsche debuted the Macan EV at the beginning of 2024, without discontinuing the gas-powered Macan
The Macan has been around since 2014 and has received several updates since then
Porsche plans to sell the Macan ICE alongside the Macan EV until 2026. After that, the gas Macan will be phased out
By taking a look at the new Macan Electric will give you jacked-up Taycan vibes, thanks to the similarly shaped LED headlights
The Macan GTS is the sportiest gas-powered Macan you can buy. It's larger 21-inch wheels and quad exhaust tips add to its appeal
The Macan 4S Electric features an adaptive air suspension, 14.7-inch brake rotors at the front and 13.8-inch rotors at the rear
The Macan GTS also packs an adaptive air suspension. But it features larger 15.3-inch brake rotors at the front and 14-inch rotors at the rear
On the inside, the Macan 4S Electric gets Porsche's latest cabin tech, including a 12.6-inch driver information display, and a 10.9-inch infotainment display
In case of the Macan GTS, it has an old-school touch, thanks to an analog-digital instrument cluster, and a 10.9-inch touchscreen display running Porsche's older operating system
Performance-wise, the Macan 4S Electric sports dual e-motors, pumping out a total of 509 hp and 604 lb-ft of torque
The electric motors are powered by a 100 kWh battery pack which also offers about 288 miles on a single charge
The Macan GTS sports a trusty 2.9-liter twin-turbo V6, cranking 434 hp and 405 lb-ft of torque
Its 7-speed PDK automatic drives all four wheels
Porsche claims that the Macan 4S Electric can zoom to 60 mph in 3.9 seconds and can achieve a top speed of 149 mph
The Macan GTS is expected to clock 60 mph from a standstill in 4.3 seconds, but is rated at a higher 169 mph top speed
