The Porsche brand is synonymous with luxurious, high-performance sports cars, and the German automaker brings these renowned qualities to the compact crossover format in the 2024 Macan. Available in four trim levels, all offering impressive levels of power, the Macan makes an ideal choice for Porsche lovers looking for a combination of daily drivability and essential sports appeal.
Sleek and Sporty Design
The Macan proves that not all compact crossovers need to follow the generic design blueprint that dominates the 2024 SUV market. The exterior features characteristic Porsche flourishes like the sloping roofline, forward-curving hood, and confidently raised rear on a practical, five-door SUV body to create the perfect blend of excitement and utility.
Choice of High-End Powertrains
Beyond looks, the key feature you'd expect from any Porsche is stunning performance, and the Macan offers three engine options to deliver the power you need. At the lower levels, a 2.0-L turbo engine makes 261 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque to deliver sprightly acceleration and controlled handling. Moving up the range, a 2.9-L V6 twin-turbo brings 375 horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque, resulting in a 0-100 km/h time of just 4.8 sec. In the highest GTS trim, the V6 engine is retuned to push the output up to 434 horsepower and 405 lb-ft of torque, creating searing performance with a 0-100 km/h time of 4.5 sec and a track-ready top speed of 272 km/h. Whichever trim you choose, expect impeccable handling from the standard combination of all-wheel drive and a seven-speed automatic transmission with manual shift mode.
