Macan EV will use batteries from China’s CATL

[JayGT4]

Now, we are learning where Porsche is getting the batteries. According to a new report from Mobile China, Porsche’s new electric Macan will use batteries from leading Chinese battery supplier CATL.

With Volkswagen using CATL’s batteries for its ID series, it makes sense that Porsche is taking a similar route.

CATL also supplies Tesla, Ford, Hyundai, Toyota, Volvo, BMW, and others. The battery giant dominates the industry with a 37.4% share of the market through November 2023.

Remember that the Macan’s battery modules are replaceable. They can be swapped out for solid state in the future, it’s my guess, and my thinking.
