Porsche has announced updates for the Macan Electric 2026 model year. The crossover has received additional features - from automatic parking to an integrated gaming platform.

One of the most unusual innovations is the AirConsole service. It is integrated into the Porsche App Center and turns the crossover into a mobile gaming lounge: passengers can use smartphones as controllers and launch games directly on the central multimedia display. While the car is in motion, entertainment is only available on the front passenger’s screen - a special filter prevents the driver from seeing it. Available games include UNO, "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" and other casual games.

The list of innovations includes a digital key compatible with iPhone, Android, and Apple Watch. Thanks to NFC, Bluetooth, and Ultra-Wideband, you can unlock and start the car without taking the gadget out of your pocket. Access to the Macan Electric can be shared with seven people, limiting or completely granting them driving rights.

Among the new assistants is the Trained Parking function. The crossover "remembers" a maneuver over a distance of up to 50 meters and can later repeat it independently, for example, when entering a tight garage. The Reversing Assist works similarly: the system reproduces the last 50 meters of travel in reverse if you need to get out of a dead end or a difficult parking spot.

The Voice Pilot voice assistant now operates based on artificial intelligence and understands more complex, contextual requests. The Porsche Charging Planner has also been improved: now you can set priority charging station networks.

Practicality has not been forgotten - the towing capacity of the Macan 4, 4S, and Turbo has been increased to 2495 kg, which is 499 kg more than the previous figure. Now the crossover is confidently able to tow trailers, boats, and other equipment.
