Thanks for posting that, but unfortunately it just rehashes what we already know. There’s no statement directly from Porsche that these will still debut in 2025. The author concludes on his own that they will, based on the fact that mules have been spotted “in recent months”.
I expected that there would’ve been a bit more fanfare around the EV Macan launch. What there was was insular (invites to the Porsche customer community to take a ride in one at an Experience Center). Otherwise it seems to have just ingloriously “shown up” in Porsche’s lineup.

About once a month I get an email from my SA asking if I want new car. I keep telling him I’ll be the first one to put done money on an electric 718 allocation.
