Verdict
At RM498,800, the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque saves RM76,200 and is 4,371 mm long, yet its 591-litre boot beats the Porsche Macan Electric’s 540 litres. Its 200 hp/320 Nm turbo petrol drivetrain and all-wheel drive suit buyers who want a conventional 67-litre fuel tank, but its 8.6-second 0-100 km/h time trails the Porsche’s 5.7 seconds. The RM575,000 Macan Electric brings 355 hp, 563 Nm, a 100-kWh battery and 641 km range, plus 270-kW DC charging. Its eight-year/160,000-km warranty is also longer.
Pick the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque if you want the lower purchase price, all-wheel drive and the larger 591-litre boot.
Pick the Porsche Macan Electric if faster 5.7-second acceleration, 641 km EV range and an eight-year warranty matter more than the RM76,200 premium.
