Same maker, two sizes. The Macan Electric is the smaller, cheaper electric Porsche SUV, from $80,300 for the rear-drive base model to $112,700 for the Turbo; the Cayenne Electric starts at $109,000 and runs to $168,000 for the Turbo Coupe, adding a larger body, a Coupe option and up to 1,139 hp. Porsche's range estimates overlap, 290 to 332 miles across the Macan lineup and 298 to 339 across the Cayenne's, and neither has an EPA rating for its 2027 cars. The Cayenne quotes a quicker 10-80% charge, 16 minutes against 21, and has a native NACS port. Pick the Macan for price and a smaller footprint; pick the Cayenne for space, with 27.6 cubic feet behind the rear seats against 17, and shorter charging stops.
Price and lineup
The 2027 Macan Electric runs from $80,300 (Macan Electric, rear-wheel drive) through the Macan 4 ($84,000), 4S ($89,900) and GTS ($105,300) to the Turbo ($112,700). The Cayenne Electric comes as an SUV or a Coupe in Electric, S and Turbo versions, from $109,000 to $168,000 before Porsche's $2,350 delivery fee, and every one is all-wheel drive. The base Cayenne Electric costs $3,700 less than the Macan Turbo.
Range, performance and space
Both carry Porsche's range estimates rather than EPA ratings for their 2027 cars: 290 to 332 miles across the Macan lineup, with the base Macan Electric going furthest, and 298 to 339 across the Cayenne lineup, with the Cayenne Coupe Electric going furthest. The Cayenne Turbo Electric reaches 60 mph in 2.4 seconds against 3.1 for the Macan Turbo; at the entry level the Cayenne Electric needs 4.5 seconds and the rear-drive Macan Electric 5.4. Cargo space behind the rear seats is 27.6 cubic feet in the Cayenne SUV and 18.9 in the Cayenne Coupe, against 17 in the Macan.
Charging
Porsche quotes 10-80% in about 16 minutes for the Cayenne Electric, at up to 390 kW; our table lists 21 minutes for the Macan. The Cayenne has a native NACS port with a standard CCS DC adapter. Our NACS data covers the Macan Electric through the 2026 model year, when it had a CCS1 port and Porsche included a NACS DC adapter; we haven't confirmed the 2027 Macan's port. At home, Porsche quotes 13 hours for a full Cayenne charge on its standard 9.6 kW onboard charger, or 6.5 hours with the optional 19.2 kW unit; our table lists about 9 to 11 hours on Level 2 for the Macan.
