For the players, the fully electric Macan Turbo in a Papaya Metallic livery, which will be on show at one end of the Centre Court during the tournament week, will be a quite special motivation. “The Porsche is the nicest winner’s trophy on the WTA Tour,” said the two-time Stuttgart winner Angelique Kerber once. “Everyone wants to take the car back home with them.”
Through its progressive design, characteristic Porsche performance, long-distance range and with real everyday usability, the Macan Turbo fulfils the highest requirements of Porsche customers. The numbers speak for top level e-performance: in combination with Launch Control, the Macan Turbo delivers up to 470 kW (639 PS). The power enables impressive driving performance on every terrain: the electric athlete accelerates from zero to 100 km/h in 3.3 seconds and its top speed is 260 km/h.
The Macan Turbo draws its energy from a high voltage battery in the underbody; the charging capacity is up to 270 kW at a suitably powerful fast-charging station. The combined range totals up to 590 kilometres.
Thanks to its sharper proportions and Porsche Design DNA, the Macan Turbo, which has all-wheel drive, has a striking, purposeful appearance. The famous Porsche proportions have been further developed and optimally adapted to the challenges of an electric vehicle. The design makes it clear: the Macan remains the sports car even in electric form. The shallow pitch of the bonnet and the strongly pronounced front wings gives it a dynamic appearance even when it’s stationary. The characteristic Porsche flyline forms a coherent whole with the shallow-raked rear window.
The Macan Turbo is a performance-oriented SUV with a high level of everyday practicality, high-quality equipment and a spacious configuration. Electrification has led to increased luggage space. The capacity behind the rear seat bench is up to 540 litres (cargo mode). In addition, there is the ‘frunk’, a second luggage compartment under the bonnet with a capacity of 84 litres. The interior is unmistakably Porsche: the width of the cockpit is emphasised by an integrated black panel. The sloping shape of the centre console heightens the impression of a low and performance-focused seating position in the vehicle.
The equipment in the new Macan enables a high degree of personalisation. Numerous possibilities therefore for the winner of the Porsche Tennis Grand Prix to transform the attractive main prize into her quite personal dream car.
