The vehicle was driven until it died, and it went above the EPA claim by 2 miles even though it had the larger (and less efficient) 22-inch wheels.
The Porsche Macan Turbo Electric achieved 290 miles of constant 70 mph highway driving before it died. It exceeded its EPA-claimed range of 288 miles even though it sported 22-inch wheels, the largest available. The vehicle needed to be pushed for the last few feet so that it could reach the charger. Porsche’s EPA range estimate for the base Macan 4 is 308 miles, which drops to 288 miles for the hot 630-horsepower Macan Turbo model.
So it exceeded the EPA rating, albeit by just two miles, and did it with the optional 22-inch wheels—bigger and less aerodynamically efficient wheels lower range. The official range quote for the Macan Turbo is with smaller 20-inch wheels that improve efficiency and range. This result suggests that the more efficient Macan 4 should have no trouble achieving its claimed range, probably nudging 330 miles with the base 20-inch wheels driven under the same conditions as the Turbo in this test.
