    Porsche Confirm There Will Be Petrol Variants For Next Macan

    Yesterday we wrote that the next Porsche Macan would be an electric affair but the German sportscar marque confirmed they plans to retain petrol versions too.

    In an official statment to carsales, Porsche wanted to make it clear that both electric and combustion engine offerings will be available come the next-generation Macan.

    “Our mission is clear: we want to drive into the future without emissions and play a technologically pioneering role.

    “At the same time, we will remain flexible for a transitional period because the world regions will develop very differently with respect to electromobility.

    “We will therefore initially continue to offer Macan models with combustion engine in parallel to the fully-electric variant.”

    This all makes sense to be honest as shifting the Macan to a pure EV would have been quite the precedent. To date, no mainstream brand has relaunched an established internal combustion engine model as a pure EV.

    • Aston Martin calls it the 'fastest luxury SUV in the world' and 'the supercar of SUVs' but is the DBX707 worth all this hype?

It is the fastest and most powerful SUV you can currently buy (order) in SA so there is that but the reality today is that the 707 will have to dice with the Urus, the Bentayga Speed, and the Cayenne Turbo GT for hearts, minds, and wallets.

Aston estimates 65% of DBX sales going forward will be this 697 hp (520 kW) and 900Nm variant and after driving it, this might be an underestimate. If the regular DBX is in your price range, then you can almost certainly afford a DBX707.

It can hit 100 km/h in 3.3s and go to a ridiculous 310 km/h so, of course, it is properly quick but it is just as impressive when the roads get twistier and it instils an enormous amount of confidence in the driver.

If you fancy snapping up this contender for the Super SUV king title, you are going to need at least R5m making it significantly more expensive than the Lambo and Porsche counterparts but you will be driving something a lot more rare which could be the reason you hand your money to Aston Martin.

What do you all think?
