How does the Macan EV 4 compare to the upcoming Audi Q6 e-Tron for 2025?

The Macan EV adopts Porsche's design language with signature design elements like the four-point headlights

The Q6 e-tron, like a typical modern Audi, looks sharp and sporty, thanks to the sleek LED headlights and the rear lightbar that features OLED tech

The Porsche Macan EV is a clear departure from the gas-powered models, taking inspiration from the Porsche Taycan

The Audi Q6 e-tron comes in both Coupe and traditional SUV body-styles

The Porsche Macan EV, on the other hand, is available only as a coupe, making it look sportier than the gas-powered model

Inside, the Porsche Macan EV gets standard leather upholstery, heated front seats, a 12.6-inch driver's display, and a 10.9-inch touchscreen infotainment display as standard

In case of the Q6 e-tron, the cabin features a squared-off steering wheel, an 11.9-inch driver's display, and a 14.5-inch infotainment display, which are OLED displays

Powertrain-wise, the Porsche Macan 4 packs dual-motors, cranking 402 hp and 479 lb-ft of torque

The Audi Q6 e-tron Quattro features the same dual-motor setup, but cranks an impressive 456 hp

Both the Macan 4 and the Q6 e-tron Quattro underpins the same 100 kWh battery pack that supports 270 kW DC fast charging

The Porsche 928 never replaced the 911 but it almost led to a sedan way before the Panamera

It was a four-door Porsche 928 study that, eventally, led to the 989 sedan concept

The 989's design was inspired by the 911, but featured an FR layout

An all-new, 80-degree V-98 was developed that would have destroyed the BMW M5 and Mercedes 500E, at the time

Due to financial trouble and the 928's decline in sales, we did not get a 4-door Porsche sedan until the 2009 Panamera

Meanwhile, Porsche's 4-door SUV was successfull enough to save the company from bankruptsy

The future of the Panamera could be similar to that of the 989

In 2024, Porsche discontinued the Panamera Sport Turismo

While Panamera sales are on the decline, the Taycan continues to be a popular performance EV

Porsche may have another EV sedan in the making

In 2015, Porsche introduced the Pajun Concept, which was intiially meant to be a hybrid

The Pajun was initially delayed until 2019, but it may come out in the next few years, following other new Porsche EVs

The Porsche Macan electric is one of the most highly anticipated EVs

Set to hit dealerships later this month, can you charge the Macan EV at a Tesla Supercharger?

The 2024 Macan Electric currently uses the CCS charging port

So for now, a NACS adapter is currently required to charge the Macan Electric at Tesla Superchargers

Porsche is transitioning to the NACS charging standard

Future models of the Macan Electric will likely include the NACS plug, which will enable charging at Tesla Superchargers

The Macan Electric, like the Taycanm is designed with advanced charging capabilities, leveraging an 800-volt architecture

Level 3 (DC fast charging) can charge the Macan Electric from 10 to 80% in approximately 21 minutes

Tesla's next-generation V3 and V4 Superchargers offer even faster charging speeds. Swipe up to read more.

The 718 Cayman is the most affordable Porsche sports car you can buy brand new, but how does it compare to the BMW M2?

The new BMW M2 is the entry level coupe of the full-fat M cars

The 718 Cayman looks like a typical Porsche sports car

The M2 brings a controversial design with more boxier appeal than the model it replaces

The 718 Cayman features smaller 18-inch alloy wheels, bi-xenon headlights, and sports exhaust at the rear

The BMW M2 gets 19-inch front and 20-inch rear alloy wheels, full-LED lights, and quad-exhaust tips at the rear

Inside, the 718 Cayman starts to show its age. But most importantly, majority of the interior is made of plastic

Comparatively, the BMW M2 feels more luxurious, thanks to the standard leather upholstery, and those massive curved displays on the dashboard

As for performance, the 718 Cayman gets a 2.0-liter turbo flat-four which is good for 300 hp and 280 lb-ft of torque

It drives the rear wheels via a 7-speed PDK gearbox by default

THE BMW M2 is powered by a 3.0-liter twin-turbo straight-six which cranks 453 hp and 406 lb-ft of torque

It drives the rear wheels via a six-speed manual gearbox

Porsche's head of design recognizes the need for a smaller 911

The 912 could be the solution, but there is a catch

The original Porsche 912 was a four-cylinder 911, produced between 1965-1969 and 1975-1976

Early 912s were powered by the Porsche 356, 1.6-liter boxer engine

Models produced in 1975 and 1976 were dubbed the 912E, and were powered by a Volkswagen 2.0-liter engine

A revived Porsche 912 would make more sense as an EV

A four-cylinder, 911-like sports car would not be well-received by Porsche fans

And a scaled-down 911 will be an impossible fit for the wide boxer engine

Porsche is preparing to launch a few more EV models

If a 912 is among them, it would share hardware with the 718 EV

It has been over a year since the Ford Mustang GTD debuted, and only now we're getting to know the actual power figures of this race-spec Mustang

Ford has disclosed that the Mustang GTD produces 815 hp and 664 lb-ft of torque!

The Mustang GTD sports the same 5.2-liter supercharged V8 from the latest Shelby GT500 with a dry-sump lubrication and a 7,650 RPM redline

Ford even quoted the top speed rating of the Mustang GTD, which is a whopping 202 mph!

Like the 911 GT3 RS, the Mustang GTD features a drag reduction system or DRS, helping it to achieve those high speeds

Ford even commented that the Mustang GTD's horsepower per liter is better than the Porsche 911 GT3 RS, and the carmaker is correct!

If you calculate the Mustang GTD's 815 hp and 5.2-liter displacement, the result is 156.7 hp per liter

As for the Porsche 911 GT3 RS, its 4.0-liter engine displacement and 518 hp turns out to be 129.5 hp per liter

While we know that the Mustang GTD is unlike any other Mustang and is very lightweight, we don't have the exact figures, yet

However, we think it will be slightly on the heavier side compared to the Porsche 911 GT3 RS, thanks to its bigger size and a heavier powertrain unit

Porsche launched the 911 S/T in 2023 to celebrate the 911's 60th anniversary

The S/T is a lightweight model with a naturally-aspirated 4.0-liter 518 horsepower engine from a 911 GT3 RS

Weighing just 3,056 pounds, the S/T is paired with a six-speed manual transmission

Reddit user, HackeSpitze901, recently shared their insights on the S/T after two months of ownership and 1,800 miles on the clock

The S/T offers a significantly improved ride quality compared to the stiffer 992 GT3

The absence of rear-wheel steering contributes to a more organic driving experience

The S/T reworked six-speed manual transmission with shorter gear ratios makes for an engaging drive

The S/T's 4.0L flat-six engine is finely tuned for mid-range responsiveness and high-rpm performance

The S/T's steering, while good, lacks the feedback and precision of older hydraulic systems

The 911 S/T is limited to just 1963 examples and costs $290,000
