Porsche Macan 2020-2023

The Porsche Macan is a good choice for people who want a high-performance SUV because it is both sporty and useful. It has some of Porsche’s most recognizable design elements, like a sleek and dynamic exterior with a sloping roofline and powerful proportions that give it a sporty look. The interior is made with high-quality materials and is designed with the driver in mind. This makes for a luxurious and cosy cabin. There are different powertrain choices for the Macan when it comes to how it drives. There are turbocharged four-cylinder engines and V6 engines, and the power outputs of the different trims change. The engines in the Macan are known for their quick acceleration and nimble handling, which make driving it fun.

The Macan also has high-tech features and technology. It comes with the Porsche Communication Management (PCM) system, which combines different features like navigation, music, and connectivity. The infotainment system is usually shown on a touchscreen, which makes it easy to use and gives you access to different car settings. Also, the Macan often comes with advanced safety features like adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, and automatic emergency braking to make the driver and passengers safer.

Macan concept

Take the everyday out of every day.
Macan concept.

Those who prefer to blaze a trail of their own don’t need to follow the lead of others. We’re thinking specifically about cars known as compact SUVs, characterized by five doors, five seats, all-wheel drive— and, of course, a higher sitting position. But aren’t they lacking a certain something?
Something that adds a little life, lets us enjoy a more intimate relationship with the road and delivers great driving pleasure. A concept that boasts plenty of space for hobbies, leisure and sport. But no room for compromise. Compact, concentrated and intensive, but still powerful. Practical, but never ordinary
It is by these standards that we created the Macan, and saw it emerge with four distinct guises. Each one a sports car. Each one unmistakable in its own segment. Each one a genuine Porsche—from design and driving dynamics to equipment specification. From our dynamic entrylevel model to the ultra sporty S variant and the striking GTS model to the Turbo, which sets performance standards in its vehicle class.
All Macan models were developed, tested and built in keeping with the Porsche philosophy. That’s where we take sporty style and performance from the racetrack and inject them into everyday driving. We make the Macan as efficient as possible—and of course, comfortable.
No efforts were spared. Our engineers achieved their development objective: the first sports car among compact SUVs.
The Macan—built for an intensive life in which the thirst for experience and thrills are ever present, and in which new challenges are a permanent driving force. Built for a life that refuses to be cut-short by conventions and feels all the more authentic for it. Direct and intimate.
A sports car that gives us what we’re looking for, even in our everyday life: that feeling of being alive.
The Porsche Macan. Life, intensified.

Design

We could etch character in stone. But we prefer more dynamic forms of expression.

Exterior design.

What makes a Porsche a Porsche? The fact that it is instantly recognizable, some would answer. Others might say it’s the face that stands out from the crowd. Our engineers would say that it’s the Porsche DNA.
It’s what gives every Porsche its own unmistakable character, and makes the Macan what it is, too. An extraordinary sports car.
That’s also proven by the most recent addition to the family: the new 4C Macan. This latest model lines up on the starting grid looking muscular, sharp and imposing. Bi-Xenon™ headlights in black and tinted LED taillights catch the eye, attracting every gaze. And the Sport exhaust system catches the ear, emitting a particularly intense and resonant sound.
The SportDesign package, fitted as standard, underscores the sporty impression further still. The rear fascia painted in black is a case in point, standard for GTS (optional for all other Macan models). The side skirts also lend a dynamic appearance. Another standard feature: the hi-gloss black exterior package. It ensures an even more commanding presence. And adds accents of its own.
Accents are also added by the new Turbo exterior package1 . Only available on the Macan Turbo, it’s made for anyone who demands nothing less than exclusivity from life. The exclusive 21-inch 911 Turbo Design wheels—highly polished on the outside, black (high-gloss) paint finish on the inside—feature wheel centers with full-color Porsche Crest. And the LED headlights, including Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS Plus), catch the eye both day and night.
SportDesign exterior mirrors, air-intake grilles painted in black (high-gloss) and side blades in black (high-gloss) also create stunning design accents.
The face of every model in the Macan range displays the dominant sporty genes of their hereditary line. Markers include the characteristic headlights recessed in the hood. The large, imposing air intakes of the front fascia are just waiting to inhale life. Every single second.
The hood stretches through to the wheel arches. This lends the front a broad and powerful presence and reminds us of the legendary Porsche 917, which won countless victories in the early 1970s— including at 24 Hours of Le Mans, where it held the distance record for 39 years.
The side profile is typically Porsche. From this angle, every muscle appears flexed—like a predator ready to pounce.
The roof line slopes distinctively down towards the rear, drawing the customary sports car contour that promises excellent aerodynamics. Our designers call it the Porsche flyline.
A visual highlight of the Macan is the side blades. Not only do they set a sporty accent, their design pays homage to the 918 Spyder. They make the proportions of the doors appear narrower and the flanks seem much sleeker and sportier. Side blades are available with a paint finish in matte black (Macan GTS only), Lava Black, in the exterior color of the vehicle or—for a particularly exclusive statement—in Carbon Fiber. A black (high-gloss) finish is reserved exclusively for the Turbo exterior package
In sizes of up to 21 inches, the wheels of the Macan are equally eye-catching. The particular Macan model that you see before you is recognizable by its brake calipers: black on the Macan, silver-­ colored on the Macan S and red on the GTS and Turbo. Typically Porsche.

The classic Porsche sports car design reveals itself at the rear: slender at the top, widening into broad shoulders above the rear wheels—a tribute to the 911. The styling of the rear hatch gives the rear end a particularly harmonious form. For convenience, the rear hatch on all Macan models is equipped with an automatic powerlift function. The slimline LED taillights have three-dimensional proportions, which gives them an extraordinary appearance of depth— and captures your attention. The overall effect is to make the Macan look low, wide, and thus intimate with the road— like any genuine Porsche. After all, a muscle-toned body is meant to be admired from the rear as well as the front.

Of course, our engineers took great care to ensure that the interior of the Macan is just as intensive with sports car sensations.

True beauty is more than just skin deep.

Interior design.

As a creator of sports cars, we know that driver and car must form a single entity. As such, you do not simply sit in the Macan—the ergonomic architecture integrates you into the vehicle. The three-­ dimensional arrangement of the controls lends the interior a cockpit-style layout. In typical Macan fashion, the sporty front seats convey a sense of height above the road but a firm connection with it.

This feeling can be experienced in an even more exclusive way—with the new Turbo interior package1 , available only for the Macan Turbo and in a choice of two contrasting colors: Rhodium Silver and Garnet Red. Eye-catching through and through, the black full-leather interior features Alcantara® on the seat centers, center console and door armrests.

The front and outer rear seat belts, the tachometer, the deviated stitching and the “Turbo” logo embroidered on the headrests are finished in the contrasting color. So it goes to show once again: the Macan Turbo not only looks outstanding on the road—it is the epitome of exceptional exclusivity.

Profound sportiness is a question of inner attitude, and this is answered emphatically by the new GTS interior package—reserved exclusively for the Macan GTS. Stitching and seat belts, the tachometer and the “GTS” logo in Carmine Red or Rhodium Silver lend the interior an even more dynamic tone. In addition, selected items upholstered, as standard, in Alcantara® highlight only too clearly the sporty genes that the Macan GTS has inherited.

The instrument panel, with its cluster of three dials, is always in view—just like in a classic sports car. In the center: the tachometer. To the right: the 4.8-inch color screen. This displays a range of useful information as well as a host of new functions introduced with the latest version of Porsche Communication Management (PCM) system.

Thanks to the ascending center console—a typical feature of a sports car—you don’t have very far to reach from the steering wheel to the PDK gear selector and most important vehicle functions. The ignition switch, as ever, is closest to the door—typically Porsche.
