Porsche is delaying the launch of its all-new Macan SUV EV until 2024 due to software development delays and bugs,
The launch was originally set for next year.
The delay is a massive blow for the EV that was to be the first to use the Volkswagen Group’s all-new premium EV platform, dubbed Premium Platform Electric (PPE).
Since early last year, Porsche has been testing Macan EV prototypes. The company revealed that it will be powered by 800-Volt architecture and would have a longer range than current EV SUVs.
By 2025, the firm wants to have half of its vehicles electrified, which would include hybrid and electric vehicles. Fourteen percent of the company’s sales last year were EVs.
A joint development between Audi and Porsche, the PPE architecture is said to be hamstrung by the E3 1.2 software platform, developed by Volkswagen’s Berlin-based software spin-off, Cariad.
