Good, you like your Taycan, a nice car.
But to dislike Macan EV without having driven makes no sense. In fact, motor journalists who have test driven Macan EV like it better than the ICE Macan.
There is a market for SUVs, Macan and Cayenne have been Porsche's best-selling for a reason.

Do you sell Macan EVs ? The point is the 2.5 tons,

i really like the Macan design and size (my Taycan is too wide for old europe roads) but i wonder if a too heavy car, despite smaller, can defy the physic of gravity, so.looking around to replace my Taycsn with whoever offer a sporty mid size SUV


Maybe Porsche is risking the guinea pig.ticket and a 2028/30 half weight battery Macan, was a better strategic decision?

If they asked here it was an easy and free consultancy, ready years ago, are they too old or what?

I guess I sell Cayenne as well, as I mentioned that too.

I suppose, the best way to find whether it defies the physic of gravity is to test drive it. And the many reviews of motor journalists I have seen, don't seem to find an issue, and as I said they claim it's better than the ICE.
In any case, my reservation is for Macan 4. I think it's about 75 kg less than the turbo.

Exactly. Many of the automedia reviewers found it worked well on the narrow, curvy, southern France curvy roads.

There were critical comments by many but not one about its cornering ability on narrow winding roads.
