JOEL FEDER DECEMBER 9, 2024

This year’s finalists for Motor Authority Best Car To Buy 2025 proves the electric age is upon us: only one finalist has a tailpipe.

Starting with nearly 25 new or significantly updated luxury and performance vehicles, we whittled down the list of 2025 nominees to just six contenders. We then tested the finalists both on the street and the track back-to-back, discussed, argued, and took a straw poll to hash out the winner.

Porsche Macan EV
Porsche’s bestselling nameplate now has an electric variant. The Macan EV sticks to the script that works for the automaker, but while it looks evolutionary, it’s underpinned by the automaker’s next-gen PPE platform. We said it “eases the electric transition” thanks to the evolutionary design. But it also delivers on the Porsche’s signature handling prowess despite weighing over 5,000 pounds. The Turbo model, which in fact does not have turbos, is powerful, instantly familiar, and track-ready.

I mean, the Macan is an amazing car and the Turbo is *fantastic*. It deserves all the praises - the few launch glitches (though frustrating) will be taken care of.

Issue with the link though, it points to a Jeep article. This is the correct one.

Sorry. Very strange for repeatedly works for me. Yet, just tried this from the beginning of their site:

If it fails from now on, for sure it is their site’s problem — for I see a typo in their link.

Works fine now thanks. Reading the shortlist the Macan looks a shoe in to win. Mind you I’ve never heard of Acura and we don’t get that or Rivian in UK.

And the winner is...

Macan lost by not much and reigns supreme on the track.
Totally valid arguments for the Ioniq 5 N, both in terms of performance and value.
