Let us remind you that the first-generation petrol Macan remains in production and in the coming years in most markets will be sold in parallel with the new electric brother, but the petrol Macan will leave the European market this spring due to tightened EU cybersecurity rules, which it does not comply with. That is, soon only the new electric Macan will remain in Europe.

The new Macan does not have any special prefix such as EV or Electric, that is, it will be problematic to distinguish a gasoline crossover from an electric one by nameplates. But it is obvious that the electric Macan looks plumper compared to its predecessor, the dimensions have grown in all directions, and the wheelbase has increased by 86 mm to 2893 mm. The overall length of the electric crossover is 4784 mm, width — 1938 mm, height — 1622 mm. Standard wheels are 22-inch.

The front of the new Macan has a two-story “optics”: daytime running lights are located on the upper floor, and the main LED headlights with optional matrix filling are located on the lower floor. The body is carefully designed from an aerodynamic point of view; there are movable flaps in the front and bottom that open when necessary for more efficient cooling of the power plant. A retractable spoiler is installed in the tailgate. The claimed aerodynamic drag coefficient cx of the new crossover is 0.25.
