Porsche’s top-selling vehicle is going electric. The Porsche Macan EV was recently spotted with minimal camouflage, giving us our closest look yet at the brand’s first electric SUV.

The luxury automaker is looking to upgrade the charging experience for Porsche EV drivers with exclusive “premium” amenities. The Porsche Charging Lounge comes complete with snacks and soft drinks, digital media, and even a smart mirror to get a workout in while on the road.

Despite sales of its sole electric sports car falling in the first half of the year, Porsche is standing by its EV sales target for 2023. The automaker is warning supply chain disruptions could remain an issue for EV growth.

Porsche will stay in Formula E for at least two more years than its original five-year commitment, extending through the 2025-2026 season. The news comes on the eve of Formula E’s ninth season finale, a doubleheader of two races happening this weekend in London.

Porsche’s electric sports car just set a record. The Porsche Taycan traveled from Thailand to Singapore (a 1,146-mile trip) in under 30 hours, making it the fastest all-electric vehicle to do so.

As Porsche moves toward an electric future, the automaker aims to deliver the same margins with its EVs, if not more, than its ICE models. Porsche’s production manager Albrecht Reimold says the Taycan and Macan EVs are “on the right track” to achieve a comparable margin with its combustion engine models.

At its 30th anniversary at the Goodwood Festival of Speed (FOS), Porsche unveiled its Vision 357 Speedster concept. The all-electric retro-looking speedster is a sister model to the Porsche Vision 357, “a nod to the first Porsche model line.”

Although Porsche posted gains in every sales region during the first half of the year, the company’s report had a glaring hole in it. Sales of its sole electric vehicle, the Porsche Taycan, fell 5% year-over-year despite the stronger performance. Should Porsche be worried?

Porsche is taking its EV drive tech beyond the roads (and land altogether) in a new partnership with renowned Australian yacht builder, Frauscher Shipyard. The premium German automaker is developing an electric sports boat that will be equipped with the upcoming Porsche Macan EVs drive tech. It’s expected to go on sale next year.

As Porsche looks to eventually transition into an all-electric sports car brand, it is establishing a new software-centric division at its Nardò Technical Center proving ground in Italy. The automaker and its technical center will utilize the nearby talent pool of software experts and engineers to hail in a new era of digitalization that will enable highly automated driving and other functions in future EVs.

Perhaps it was a coincidence that Porsche unveiled its Mission X concept electric vehicle a mere week after Tesla’s Model S Plaid with Track Package took the electric Nurburgring crown from the Taycan. The first bullet point in the Mission X press release was:

“Be the fastest road-legal vehicle around the Nürburgring Nordschleife”

Or perhaps not. But now we’re getting a better look at the concept and can make our own assumptions on whether or not this thing, or some variant of it, will make it to production.

Porsche has unveiled the Mission X, a new electric hypercar concept, which the automaker says could be the fastest road-legal vehicle ever to do a lap around the famous Nürburgring racetrack… if it goes into series production.

Porsche is back again with a pair of new high-end electric bicycles. It’s not the company’s first attempt at e-bikes, but they may be some of their most expensive yet.

Electric vehicle conversion specialist Everrati has returned with yet another all-electric version of a celebrated Porsche 911 model. The company is now selling a new zero-emissions classic inspired by the Porsche 911 ST. It may not be a directly built upon existing ST models, but this conversion captures the essence of the limited run racing vehicle that inspired it, and delivers far greater performance.

Porsche revealed today a new collaboration with former Tesla partner Mobileye to produce premium Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) for future models.

After deliveries of its sole electric vehicle fell in the first quarter, Porsche says Taycan production is due for a “very steep ramp-up.”

German automakers, known for their luxury and performance, hold different views on the use of e-fuels. While Mercedes-Benz CEO says it will favor “technically superior” EVs over ICE vehicles powered by e-fuels, Audi’s CEO says the synthetic fuels will play a major role within the Volkswagen Group’s plans, including Porsche.

During its annual press conference earlier today, Porsche AG is reporting four new financial records for 2022 following a successful IPO last fall. With record revenues for the previous year, Porsche now looks ahead toward its goal of delivering 80% electrification throughout its entire vehicle lineup by 2030 and has updated the public on what and when we will see new EV models, including a bespoke SUV prototype.

Two iconic brands synonymous with design and function, Airstream and Porsche, teamed up to build a camping trailer concept that’s sure to quench your wanderlust with a modern, aerodynamic design and lighter weight that’s optimized for EV towing. And perhaps the best part – you can store it right in your garage.

The 2025 Porsche Boxster and Macan EVs were spotted during winter testing at the Arctic Circle for the first time. Check out the video below.
