There's really no comparison. The Model 3 is fast sure, but it feels like an appliance. No noise, no vibrations, no gear selector, barren interior. A totally sterile experience. The Macan S on the other hand makes great noises, has tight steering with sufficient road feel, and a proper shifter.

EVs are great appliances for the masses, but as a car enthusiast I'm not convinced.
Macan S is much more expensive than a Model 3. We have a Model Y at home and agree that it's a completely different driving experience. My wife for one loves the Model Y. I like the clean interior styling. Reminds me of the original iPhone compared to the smartphones from Nokia at the time.

We used to have a Cayenne S that my wife traded in for her MY and I doubt she is ever going back to a non EV. So different markets and buyers...I am seriously considering my next to be a well optioned iX.
