- I drove the simply epic all electric 630 horsepower Porsche Macan Turbo up a very wet hill climb at this year's Goodwood Festival of Speed. I was brave enough to launch it off the line and was blown away by it's performance.
For this special ride I was joined in the passenger seat my the Chief Designer of Alfa Romeo and got his take on this latest all electric offering from Porsche.

Love that you acknowledge the importance of the marshals (and the crowd in the piddling down rain)!
I love Itailians. He's nothing less than a ledgend and sits in the passenger seat like a humble car fan. Brilliant!!
Such a nice guy 👍
But Alejandro is not Italian but Spanish…!
@@TonyFabris-lb2mg Thanks for correcting. Still a cool chap!
What an honour to take Alejandro up the hill! Hope you had a great FoS this year, Pete. Amazing.
I sure did thank you 🙏🏻
Was at Goodwood at 6.30am yesterday with my 17 year old son and his camera.He took hundreds of photos.He is car crazy.We see you doing a piece on camera before you went out on a run.Fantastic day.
Ah that’s great. Hope you had a great time 👍
Singapore based Macan S owner here with Macan Turbo EV on order for Dec’ish delivery. More excited now!
Nice 👌
Cool passenger Ped! Seems a very approachable guy too.
He’s ace 👍
The rain looks so nice on the glass ceiling. 😌
👌
Great video. I like the Macan a lot, especially the interior. Porsche knows how to do it right and not to just shove an I-pad in the dashboard
Couldn't agree more!
So cool to pick up suck an awesome passenger. Can’t wait till next year’s GW video!
Guess it was Saturday afternoon. We were hopping between stands to try and keep dry for the short time it rained!
Fantastic couple of days. You're a lucky boy.
Nice car. It just needs to make some noise!
Thanks 👍
Mr Alfa seems a cool guy, clearly you have a great relationship with the brand Pete 👍🏻
He’s great 👍
Ped… it was a pleasure chatting to you. Would be good to catch up better sometime. James & Gina, USA. NH.
Ah mate. So lovely to meet you both 🥰
2 dogs and a wife.....was that the right order ???
😂😂😂
Ped now has two dogs he can see at the weekends and one ex-wife
I see you’re clearly not married 😂
Of course😂 as a married dog owner, I agree. As would my wife😂
Awesome! Alejandro Mesonero-Romanos is so cool!
He really is 👍
It sounds pretty good inside tbf
Love the FoS. Couldn't make it this year. Will be back next year.
Just Loving Your Vlog Mr. Petrol Ped, As Always Spot On ... 👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
Great run Pete. Cheers, John.
Thanks 👍
Looked a smooth drive Ped…nice one, not easy with a VIP on board too. 👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks 👍
Electric cars and all that water! !!
The uphill acceleration looked brutal
Yep 👍
What a great video, Alejandro is a super cool chap!
He sure is 👍
I enjoyed watching the video 😊
👍
EV,no thanks!
😂😂😂
Love the yellow colour & great video too.
Thanks 🙏🏻
That's probably the best pov in-car i've seen at Goodwood hill and i've seen most of them, thanks buddy.
You did well in those conditions, shame it's in a chumpy EV.
Wow, thanks!
Great run up the hill. Shame it was wet. Like the helmet. Personalised, smart.
Thanks. It’s a very treasured possession 👌
That’s a bit of a machine, still prefer the Taycan look but that would do very nicely. Your nocking it out the park with Alfa Electric keep it going to the passenger 😂 we need interesting sport driven electric by passionate designers and engineers.
The drive I have a feeling Porsche stability control earned its money on the run and of course a little bit of Ped talent. I’d have love to have seen the electric Cooper works that was in front on the way down.
Thanks 👍
Great passenger,cool dude…shame about the weather. Nice run though 👏👏
Thanks 👍
been a fan of the Porsche Macan since it was created, and as i am already pro ev...that just places the new model way up high on my dream list
👍
we see so many runs up the hill, but not many from inside the car. Good one!
👍
Excellent video Ped. Very entertaining thank you 👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it
That was a high risk way to blag a drive in the 33 Stradale next year - sounds like it worked though! Very much looking forward to seeing that…
Worked out OK though 😜👍
There are now four variants of the Macan electric since days ago. They are as follows: Macan, Macan 4, Macan 4S, Macan Turbo. Each one is more powerful and with less range than the next down. I'm going to go for the "cheapest" model with the longest range. 5.7 seconds to 60 mph is plenty fast for me, as I'm buying for design, handling, quality and reliability reasons.
WhatCar? magazine in the UK conducted a large 16,000 car owner reliability survey for all car brands, and while Porsche was not near the top of the list overall as a brand (Lexus was number one overall; duh) the magazine specifically mentioned Porsche for the Macan was rated number one for reliability in the small SUV category. The survey was before the EV version existed, but that seems like a good sign to me.
And I want me some real leather seats and interior, thank you very much. There are 60 year old Porsche's out there with their original real leather seats, just as my leather (pig skin) New Balance trainers are over ten years old. If well maintained, real leather is a phenomenally durable and beautiful material. Porsche's are second to none in this area in terms of leather quality and fit and finish.
The true reason "vegan leather", otherwise known as plastic, is used by car companies is because it is far cheaper to source than good quality real leather. Car companies use this cheap less durable less nice material for optics and slogans, and for profit. Green washing. Real leather literally grows from a food source from the sun, and can be sourced regeneratively, if car companies actually cared about other factors (not just sourced responsibly, but regeneratively). A popular German car reviewer on RUclips ignorantly copy & pasted a pre-written response to me about how we are all bad people trying to end the world for wanting real leather seats and to eat meat. Unfortunately for him I am well versed in regenerative farming going on 15 years. It's amazing how confidently someone with a large audience can spout such nonsense. He visited one farm and thinks he knows what he's talking about.
For max real world range go for the base model, it will be about 350 miles in Summer. That's the model to get in my view. Never needing to use a public charger as I never drive more than 350 miles is my goal. Public charges are sometimes unreliable? Not an issue when the car gets more range than you drive. My goal is to never need to charge in daytime. Go home, plug in and the next day drive. That's it.
Very brave of you with your friend from Alpha in those wet conditions but I guess with your race licence you are trained for that.
Trained is a big word. Just aired on the side of caution 😂
Great driving.Well done.
Thank you 👍
Impressed with Alejandro who seems very approachable. You also look a bit alike!
He’s a top bloke 👍
Great video.
Not to sure on the design but the interior looks good great to see the head of design for Alfa Romeo doing some product research
Fantastic video
👍
Keeping good company for some top Alfa access!
Oh yes 👍
Well, next year, I definitely need to go to goodwood
You do 👍
Hopefully you had a great day and weekend 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
I sure did 🙏🏻
Looks alright
Is it?
But then you agreed with your "Hello mate", Porsche is rubbish 😁😁😁
Good to meet you just after you’d driven this up the hill. (The guy who’d had fallen down the stairs)
Great to see you too 👍
The price is the killer but in 2 years maybe 3 it will be much cheaper I'm sure
Don't think anybody will be buying 2-3 year old electric cars. Porsche can't sell new Taycans let alone used ones.
It'll be 50% cheaper with no miles on after a year or so, another stillborn EV unfortunately 😞
Awesome Pete 🎉
Thanks 👍
Am I the only one that thought it sounded boring and missing some big gear shifts and ignition cuts to add theatre and excitement? As the enthusiast you claim to be, this seems like gas lighting.
I'm not gas lighting...it's an electric car !!
When I saw the thumbnail, I thought it was the new Renault 5 😀
Very R5 lights 👍
Looking forward to the 33 Stadale up the hill... but... you were following a new MINI by the looks of it! How did that look like up the hill?!?
It was Charlie Cooper in the car he drove at the N24…it was on slicks 😮😂
Pete that’s a great video 🎉
Good video, nice partnership, they could be brothers. I went Saturday and got wet in the late afternoon. FOS needed more Italian flare this year. Didn't see enough Alfa's going up the hill, where were the QF's and the like? AR Stradale 33 was in a glass box, that was the only Alfa stand I could find. AR Junior in Electric Ave, less said about that the better, didn't look Italian to me, more French styling than Italian and where did they get the name JUNIOR from? Built in Poland? No Milano, so call it Polano, not Junior?? The quietest Goodwood I've been to, car noise wise. Heard a lot of electric, WEEE WEEE WEEE WEEE. Welcome to the future. Bit boring isn't it!!? FOS still a great, great day out for car and motorsport lovers. I've walked the hill (higher and steeper that it looks) with my dog but would love to drive up it one day in an ICE Alfa. Nice driving Pedro given the weather conditions and the cargo.
Peter…well done for trying hard in difficult conditions and with such a quick car. To have such an important passenger was so good and next time, I hope you get they keys to a Stradale…still maybe the best looking car of all at the Festival!
I saw the Macan EV but noticed one thing…no rear window wiper which see seems a little strange given the shape and wet weather..I hope it is in the options list!
I saw a comment made earlier on…you will remember which…your reply was perfect…nobody will listen to such words who has the slightest understanding of how the future looks. I don’t hate EV’s but there are plenty of petrol and diesel engines that have been throughly awful and deserve to go! My lowly PHEV is actually at its best in EV mode and has all the “ character” you can use plus a huge dose of refinement. When new batteries arrive in 2026 with Toyota Lexus ( I had a good talk to them at FoS) there will be a huge change and range, weight and degradation will become a thing of the past. I hope I’m still here to drive one!! Well done for dealing with that idiot though !😃
Now…back to the sunshine of Cornwall…YES…we have some today!! Richard😃😃😃😃😃
Hello mate
It looks to have a similar size interior to the ID3 ?
Evening all! Hope everyone is doing well and have a great week.
You too!
Good driving
Strange no engine sound.
That was great one, how did you convince Porsche to allow the passanger? And you booked a ride for next year to boot
I asked really nicely 👍
Think that was around 4.5 seconds to 60....impressive considering the very wet conditions...!!.
Yeah it was torrential 😮
Cheers guys
try Ioniq 5N
Yeah need to do that 👍
@@PetrolPed 641hp for less price
Thanks Ped, for using the phrase ‘in the metal’. I find it really irritating when presenters say ‘in the flesh’. Sounds so incongruous. A Turbo EV? 🤷♂️ I’m getting old. Great video.
Turbo is a trim level at Porsche now. Same in the Taycan 👍
Doesn't the flesh refer to the beholder, not the beholden?
First! Having slight misgivings about electric Porsche’s.
It’s one of the few that will do Electric right. Performance with quality and style.
Im guessing 2400kg since the petrol is 2000kg
2480 👍
@@PetrolPed jeepers very green 😆
That sounded horrid
Would do my swede in.
2 dogs & a wife Hilarious
I’m hugely tempted to replace my Cayenne S with one of these. But my 2011 Evoque had a passenger screen that the driver couldn’t view so that’s hardly innovative!
I remember seeing that in a Range Rover. Proprietary tech from JLR at the time 👍
What part of this EV has a Turbo??
It doesn’t. Turbo is a trim level in the Porsche range 👍
the part on which Porsche is a money crowd pleaser and not a sports care manufacturer.
Nice EV , but why the silly name, 'Turbo!?'
Same as with Taycan. Turbo is a trim level now with Porsche 👍
@@PetrolPed I suppose it's better than Executive 😄
Alfa boss ?
Looks like a GTA version of Macan, disappoint...
Well as cool passengers go ......
👍
It’s a not so bad 😂
If they put an engine in this they'd sell loads 😉
Why is it called a turbo?
Because its the fast version which is the brand value for Porsche big time
‘Turbo’ refers to the spec level, not the hardware fitted.
Most Porsche models have turbo’s now, so they would be all called ‘turbo’
Turbo is a trim level for Porsche. It goes S, GTS, Turbo, Turbo S 👍
Such a silly question. Do you not know how brand recognition works.
Macan Turbo EV - no way ever will I buy an EV! Especially a Porsche EV what a waste of money!
🌽⚽️
No money for it?
Hi Ped
Another great event from GRRC, and it would appear you enjoyed yourself despite the rain! Have to say your video was superb well done. It would appear that Porsche has made a very good EV again with the Macan, however whilst I am not against change & progress, I strongly believe that manufacturers have been forced to adopt the charge towards electrification too quickly and it will end in pain and even greater financial losses. You mentioned the Taycan, no doubt a terrific car, but look at the depreciation, horrendous, and the number of cars on the second hand market not selling. A more balanced approach with a longer time frame, and a bit on open honesty regarding the true cost of Net Zero would have been welcomed but I fear it is too late.😥😥😥
Just no emotion.
Plenty of other stuff though 👍
Turbo, pffft. Shame on you Porsche
VW have shares with x-pen
🤔How can you link ‘’Turbo”with an Electric EV?😂
Porsche Taycan has been doing it since 2019. Turbo is a trim level at Porsche now all but the GT cars are turbo charged !
Sounds so boring though. No soul
As the MacMaster has said many times his Taycan drives brilliantly but never consider buying one as the depreciation is mental, the range never good and a very soulless experience
You’re actually quoting the MacMaster, somebody so desperate for views that he once made a video alluding to having cancer when he actually didn’t?
😅😅😅 duplicate copy of Lamborghini urush😂😂
Only better looking and electric 🧐
Electric 🤮. Porsche ruined the Macan
😂
Fastest EV in the world destroyed after 2000HP overwhelms race driver
The Electric Viking
yet another EV propaganda; when it is not Alpine, it is Porsche; when it is not Porsche, it is Audi; when the views are low, money from Vauxhall/Opel are good enough as well.
ffs, if I wanted EV content, I would watch EV content; I know that Porsche, among others, are getting desperate but, what that has to do with us, the enthusiasts?, why are you force feeding us EV content that no one asked for?, do you really think everyone is braindead and you will enlighten us with your EV info, being paid at the same time by the big money making apparatus and we wouldn't get it?, mostly all of us are adults and we know how things work.
Your comment is a perfect demonstration that you clearly don’t know how things work. Simple answer for you…don’t watch 🤷♂️
It’s not propaganda it is just a new car to market and reviewing them is a large part of what I do. I is just a fact that most new cars are now electric thanks to EU legislation and NOT something being driven by the manufacturers. Now go and read up on the subject before embarrassing yourself with such an idiotic comment again 🙄
@@PetrolPedthat's your assumption; I can very easily say that due to industry in which I work, I know and understand much more than you do about EVs..but, that doesn't mean I should blindly agree with what you and others EV paid propagandists say.
The fact of the matter is, Porsche has only two real Porsche platforms, the rest of them being rebadged VW group products.
Encouraged by the company car sales of the Taycan, they thought they can get away with and push EV on all fronts; I really really do hope the situation will turn and it will bite them in the 'behind', Lotus style, the difference being Porsche is s bigger company with a better developed product range and thus, they have a higher inertia(and safety margin) from market reaction.
The desperation part is coming from the gazillions invested in EV product lines because, if EV Macan and Boxter/Cayman fail to penetrate and be successful on the market(especially EV Macan), they will be in a big big trouble. They could have spared themselves from all this trouble by not being so greedy and maintaining a focus on core Porsche values and focusing less on rebadged VW products and more on actual sports cars, like Ferrari has done and none of this "obligatory EV product range" would have happened; their own greed got them in this situation and we, the enthusiasts, shouldn't support this in any way shape or form;
and you could rest easy, I didn't watch your EV paid propaganda, I am just here to try and counter balance it; if we, the enthusiasts, don't stood up for real sports cars, who will?, guys like you, surely not as for you, an automatic boxter is all the sports car you need...which is really saying something. You're an enthusiast in the same way my beagle is a savage tiger.
And I am no young punk or some old guy...I am a 40 year old enthusiast; if you are not one, and you surely aren't(the EV and SUV preference say as much, in conjunction with real unpleasant grimace and lack of enthusiasm in your voice in cars like the manual Emira), stop pretending and stop with the misleading; it is embarrassing and you should be ashamed of what you are doing to the automotive audience.
