However, the existing model with its gasoline powertrains will stick around for a while.<\/p>\n<p>That poses an issue in terms of naming as it wouldn&#8217;t be such a great idea to have two completely different Macan models, one with ICE and another with EV propulsion. Porsche is worried there could be some confusion among customers, hence why it is believed the zero-emissions variant will adopt an entirely different moniker. That would create a clear distinction between the two crossovers while the two will peacefully coexist for a number of years before the gasoline-fueled Macan will be dropped.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6696\" src=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Porsche-Macan-EV-teaser-7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2520\" height=\"1418\" srcset=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Porsche-Macan-EV-teaser-7.jpg 2520w, https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Porsche-Macan-EV-teaser-7-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/evglobe.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Porsche-Macan-EV-teaser-7-2048x1152.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2520px) 100vw, 2520px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>Motor Trend<\/em> has it on good authority the all-electric &#8220;to avoid potential customer confusion caused by having different vehicles with the same moniker occupying showrooms.&#8221; Porsche has hinted about coming out with an <a href=\"https:\/\/evglobe.com\/2021\/03\/24\/porsche-panamera-electric-version-considered\/\">electric version of the Panamera<\/a> to slot above the Taycan, and if that happens, logic tells us it too will bear a different name to separate the EV version from the ICE model.<\/p>\n<p>Getting back to the completely silent Macan, it will ride on the Premium Platform Electric (PPE) developed by Porsche and Audi.
