Tesla Model Y
2025 Porsche Macan Electric Vs. 2025 Tesla Model Y Juniper
Here's how Tesla's Model Y refresh stacks up against Porsche's sporty all-electric Macan
With the intent of soon bidding farewell to the internal combustion engine that once defined it, Porsche finally dragged its best-selling Macan into the electric age last year. But if things don’t go to plan, I have a feeling that the gas-powered variant which is set to be discontinued in 2026, may stick around. The recent shift in market dynamics, not favoring EVs much has warranted Porsche to realign its EV strategy with rumors of some models that were destined to be electric even to take the hybrid route, or even better an ICE retrofit. Meanwhile, Tesla’s super-popular and newly unveiled Model Y, now under the "Juniper" moniker, is all set to continue to assert its dominance in the electric crossover market, already racking up 50,000 orders within the very first day.
