Overview
- Porsche said on a recent earnings call that it will stop building the gasoline Macan in summer 2026 and ramp final output to the limit.
- The company is stacking inventory at its Leipzig, Germany plant with a goal of keeping gas Macans on sale into 2027 in some regions.
- In the U.S., the gas Macan led Porsche’s Q1 2026 results with 10,130 sales versus 2,051 for the electric version, reflecting price sensitivity and thinner EV incentives.
- Europe has been without the gas Macan since mid-2024 because the decade-old model does not meet new GSR2 safety and cybersecurity rules.
- Porsche is targeting 2028 for a new gas-positioned successor, creating a likely multi‑year gap that raises revenue risk as profit after tax fell to €391 million in Q1 2026 from €518 million a year earlier.
