TEN (TRANSPORT EVOLVED NEWS) EPISODE 470: PORSCHE'S NEWEST RIDE

EV Channels Review

Transport Evolved News covers the highly anticipated reveal of the 2025 Porsche Macan EV. The new model is built on Porsche's 800v PPE platform, offering two initial variants: the Macan 4 and the Macan Turbo. Both feature dual-motor all-wheel drive, with the Macan 4 delivering up to 381 miles (613 km) of WLTP range and the Macan Turbo boasting 470 kW and a 3.3-second 0-60 mph time. The review notes Tesla's Q4 earnings miss and a subsequent stock drop, Aptera's battery partnership details, and the slow rollout of FSD v12.1.2. It also touches on regulatory discussions for e-bikes in NYC, disappointing emissions data from Europe, and early range reports for the Tesla Cybertruck, which appear significantly lower than advertised. The segment highlights government initiatives for solar land use and EV charging incentives, as well as industry news from Apple, BYD, Canoo, Cadillac, Ford, GM, Jeep, Kia, Lucid, MAN, Maserati, Stellantis, and Volkswagen.
