What Porsche makes

Porsche is a German sports car maker. Its international website presents a range that runs from the rear-engined 911 two-door sports car to the Panamera, a four-door saloon offered as a plug-in hybrid or with a petrol engine. Between them sit the Cayenne, a versatile SUV that can be had as an electric car, a hybrid or a petrol model, and the Macan, a compact SUV that is now sold as an electric model.

Where it sells and how owners use it

Porsche's site is published in many regional versions, and prices, ranges and equipment differ by market. Owners of the electric and plug-in hybrid cars use the My Porsche App and Porsche Connect to check the state of the battery, manage charging and warm or cool the cabin before a journey. For public charging, the Porsche Charging Service offers access to more than one million charging points in 28 countries, depending on the market. Plug and Charge is meant to remove manual steps at the charger.

Its electric line-up

Porsche groups its electrified cars under the name E-Performance. The battery-electric cars are the Taycan, which comes as a Sport Saloon, a Sport Turismo and a Cross Turismo, the Macan Electric family, and the Cayenne Electric. The plug-in hybrid cars include the Panamera E-Hybrid range, which pairs a twin-turbo V6 with an electric motor. The Taycan, Macan Electric and Cayenne Electric are all listed for the 2027 model year.
