Porsche India has dropped some big news featuring the petrol-powered Macan S and GTS, which are planned to be officially off the market. They have been removed from the brand’s website, signaling the end of the legendary era! But, if you want one, there are still a few chances to snag one from dealers. Let’s break it down!
In India, Porsche has ditched the Macan S and GTS petrol variants for EVS, following a global shift towards greener technology. The Macan S, priced at ₹1.45 crore, and the GTS, at ₹1.53 crore (ex-showroom), were powered by a 2.9-litre V6 turbo engine. The S pumped out 375 horsepower, while the GTS roared with 434 horsepower. These SUVS were all about speed and style, but now, they’re history.
If you’re still craving a petrol Macan, the base model is your only option. It’s got a 2.0-litre turbo engine with 261 horsepower and costs ₹96.05 lakh (ex-showroom). Not as wild, but still a Porsche!
Porsche is going green, folks! The company stopped selling petrol Macans in the EU last year and plans to phase them out globally by 2026. In India, they’re pushing the Macan Electric lineup, which includes the Macan Electric (₹1.21 crore), Macan 4s Electric (₹1.39 crore), and Macan Turbo Electric (₹1.69 crore). These EVS offer crazy performance, like the Turbo’s 630 horsepower with Overboost, and up to 641 km of range. It’s clear Porsche is betting big on electric power.
Can’t let go of the petrol vibe? Some dealers still have Macan S and GTS units in stock. But you gotta act fast—these are the last ones! Once they’re gone, it’s EVs or the base petrol Macan for you.
Oh, and heads-up: Porsche has hiked prices across its lineup in India. The 911 now costs ₹2.11 crore to ₹2.84 crore (up by ₹9-12 lakh), while the Cayenne and Cayenne Coupe are pricier by ₹5-10 lakh. Even the Taycan and Panamera saw jumps up to ₹16 lakh. So, if you’re eyeing a Porsche, brace for a heftier bill.
The Macan is Porsche’s compact SUV star, blending sports-car thrills with SUV practicality. With petrol variants fading, the electric Macan is stealing the spotlight. It’s a bold move toward a sustainable future, but it means saying bye to that classic V6 growl.
Want a piece of Porsche history? Hit up those dealers before the petrol Macan S and GTS vanish for good!
