It is entirely without surprise. 2 tons, electric, 250 miles real world range at best, fast in a straight line, lots of tech, looks like a big hatchback, useless off road.

Looks ok though, at least in base version. The turbo front bumper is hideous.

Looks like it ate the ICE Macan. And they didn't announce curb weight. It can tow 4400 lb. An ICE Macan is well over 4000 lb. Expect this to weigh an extra 750-1000 lb on top of that. And less storage space than a GTI, how practical.

Probably a preview of the Cayman's powertrain.
