Porsche is launching a revised Macan SUV with increased performance, a sharper design and a new operating concept. All three available versions come with significantly more power than their predecessors.
The Macan GTS’s 2.9-litre V6 bi-turbo engine now delivers 324 kW, an increase of 44 kW and accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.3 seconds with the now standard Sport Chrono package. Its top speed is 272 km/h.
The Macan S is now also equipped with a 2.9-litre V6 bi-turbo engine that produces 20 kW more power than before, with 280 kW. Its zero to 100 km/h in 4.6 seconds with the optional Sport Chrono package. Top speed now 259 km/h.
A newly developed, turbo-petrol four-cylinder engine with 195 kW is used in the entry point model in the Macan range. Its figures are zero to 100 km/h in 6.2 seconds with the optional Sport Chrono package, and reaches a top speed of 232 km/h.
All engines are coupled to the seven-speed Porsche PDK dual-clutch transmission and the Porsche Traction Management all-wheel-drive system.
A new, shorter, transmission selector lever is fitted. The Macan adopts the new multifunction and GT Sport steering wheels from the 911.
The chassis has been optimised further and we are told the Macan now responds with even more sensitivity and more directly to the driving situation and road conditions, giving the driver even better feedback via the steering wheel.
Porsche Macan GTS with the sport air suspension, which lowers the body by 10 millimetres and is now standard.
The optional GTS Sport package further increases the dynamic potential of the car, with 21-inch GT design wheels with performance tyres and Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus.
