Porsche is expanding the Macan Electric model range with the 2026 Macan GTS. With up to 563 horsepower with Overboost, a limited-slip rear differential and a sport-tuned air suspension with lower ride height, the Macan GTS aims to offer the most agility and cornering prowess of any Macan model, company officials stated in a press release. As is customary for GTS models, the fifth variant of the Macan Electric family is distinguished by unique styling elements and black accents.
With this new model, Macan Electric will carry the GTS designation for the first time, which was introduced with the 904 Carrera GTS in 1963. Porsche says this is justified by its exceptional performance: the sprint from 0-60 mph in just 3.6 seconds, the quarter mile in 12 seconds and a top track speed of 155 mph.
Power & Performance of the 2026 Macan GTS
The Macan GTS shares its rear electric motor with the Macan Turbo, which is the largest and most powerful motor of the range with a rotor diameter of 230 mm, an active length of 210 mm and utilizing a highly efficient 900-amp pulse inverter made with silicon carbide (SiC) transistors. This helps the GTS generate 509 hp, noted the release.
When using Launch Control from a standing start, the GTS makes up to 563 hp in Overboost, while maximum torque peaks at 704 pound-feet. Like the Macan Turbo, the transmission features a ratio of 9:1 and is rated for higher loads. The 100-kWh high-voltage battery can be charged from 10%-80% in as little as 21 minutes under ideal conditions with a suitable fast charger, reaching up to 270 kW in the process, officials said.
The Macan GTS is fitted with the Sport Chrono Package as standard, which has been enhanced with the Track Endurance Mode that was introduced on the Taycan. This mode prepares the Macan for a particularly dynamic driving style. When activated, it cools down the battery to delay potential power reduction due to battery heat, also known as thermal derating. The result is a noticeable increase in the duration of high-performance driving.
The 2026 Macan GTS Features Sport-Tuned Air Suspension With GTS-Specific Calibration
The new Macan GTS applies its power to the road by combining rear-biased weight distribution, a low center of gravity and intelligent power distribution. In addition to the all-wheel drive system with a quick-reacting electric Porsche Traction Management (ePTM) system, Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV Plus) is fitted as standard.
To optimize traction and agility, the system utilizes an electronically controlled, limited-slip differential for the rear axle. The PTV Plus system is mounted directly behind the rear motor and contributes to a rear-biased 48/52% front/rear weight distribution for the GTS.
Additionally, the Macan GTS has the lowest center of gravity of any model in the lineup. The air suspension with load-leveling and Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) has been optimized in detail. On top of the GTS-specific calibration of dampers and roll bars, the lower ride height contributes to a particularly high level of agility and cornering capability. Optional rear-axle steering is available as well, offering the potential to increase performance further, the company said.
The Macan GTS also features two model-specific sound profiles of the Porsche Electric Sport Sound (PESS) when “Sport” or “Sport Plus” drive mode is activated, acoustically underscoring its dynamic ambitions.
Pricing & Availability of the 2026 Macan GTS
The 2026 Macan GTS can be ordered immediately and has an MSRP of $103,000. The first vehicles are expected to arrive at U.S. Porsche Centers in spring 2026.
