The New Porsche Macan Once Again Redefines The Compact Suv Segment With Its Enhanced Driving Dynamics And Equipment.

Urban Thriller

When technology, engineering and inspiration come together, they create something outstanding. In fact, the resulting product can exceed expectations and overcome scepticism.

Nobody thought that an SUV could combine the virtues of a practical, spacious vehicle and ignite the senses like a sports car at the same time.

Yet the new Porsche Macan, infused with the spirit of the legendary 911, has delivered just that.

It has set new benchmarks in driving dynamics, design, and driving pleasure. Now this paradigm-defining engineering paragon has been updated to continue redefining its genre.

Take, for example, the new powertrains that launch the sporty Macan and the blistering Macan S from rest to 100km/h in 6.5 seconds and 5.1 seconds respectively with Sport Chrono Package.

The beating heart of the Macan S is a new 3-litre V6 that delivers 354hp and a top speed of 254km/h. Its twin-scroll turbocharger is mounted centrally in the “V”, shortening exhaust gas paths and delivering swift responses.
