The 2020 Porsche Macan is a proper performance SUV, and for us, the GTS is the pick of the range.
Porsche’s mid-sized SUV has been given more fire in the belly to meet the challenge of rivals from Mercedes-AMG, BMW, Jaguar and Alfa Romeo.
Porsche’s sportiest Macan, the GTS, now fits a ‘Turbo-lite’ engine. Is the revised mid-ranger the new sweet spot of the range?
The long-running benchmark for performance SUVs has been given a nip and tuck – can it retain its place at the top?
While the laws of physics dictate heavy and tall sporty SUVs will never imitate a true sports car, several manufacturers have proven that driving enjoyment can indeed be derived from this vehicle type. BMW was one of the first with its 2009 X5 M – and the third-generation version is among our finalists here...
Few brands elicit the sort of starry-eyed thoughts that come about at the mention of Stuttgart's beloved Porsche. Given an opportunity to tour the iconic manufacturer's museum and production facility, we couldn't possibly say no.
The GTS is the new mid-level entrant to the line up of Porsche's hyper-successful sports SUV. With more power and more kit, is the GTS the one to pick?
http://www.caradvice.com.au/308887/?yt_desc - Read our comparioson of the Macan, SQ5 and X4 here. CarAdvice.com.au pits the Audi SQ5 TDI against the new Porsche Macan S Diesel to see if it can retain its crown as the drag race champion.
The Macan Turbo and X3 M may wear practical SUV bodies, but are infused with the sports car DNA that made legends of the Porsche and BMW brands. So, which is the most worthy of the performance badges they wear?
Porsche's facelifted Macan S brings a freshened look, performance bump and infotainment lift. But can it beat out the mainstay BMW X3 M40i for blending practicality and sportiness?
You could pitch an XJR against a Panamera, or an F-Type against a Boxster or Cayman. Yet the absolute domination of SUVs in today’s sales numbers suggests the most relevant Jaguar versus Porsche comparison pits the F-Pace against the Macan. Many automotive purists would prefer neither existed, believing them to be a slight on two brands with impeccable sporting pedigrees...
A fully-electric 2023 Porsche Macan SUV is undergoing testing in Germany, the company has revealed. Porsche released images of the battery-powered Macan being driven at its development facility in Weissach, Germany, which will share its underpinnings with the Audi Q6 E-Tron, due in late 2022...
The upcoming Audi Q6 E-Tron will be developed alongside an electric Porsche Macan, Audi CEO Markus Duessman has confirmed.

Details have emerged out of Europe of the Volkswagen Group's planned electric vehicle (EV) onslaught over the next two years.

Porsche’s next-generation electric Macan SUV is due in Australian showrooms in 2022 – following its European debut in 2021. Although the above image is a computer illustration – by KDesign AG – of how the new model might look (borrowing the front-end styling theme from the Porsche Taycan), the electric Macan will be built and sold alongside existing petrol variants, giving buyers a choice between petrol and electric power for the foreseeable future...
We have had our base-model Macan (or Macan as I will refer to it) for around 12 months. The first thing I learnt when looking at this car is that Porsche don’t need to pay a marketing department – the owners and enthusiasts more than sort that out! Just check out on forums and reviews to see the passion and the push to spend up big...
Definitely the best in class performance for putting a smile on your face. Having been a Land Rover owner for past 20 years & still enjoy driving my Discovery HSE which is superior as a 4 x 4 and excellent to carry 7 people or lots of cargo, if one is looking for a great day to day mid-size SUV with 'Best in Class' on road performance with attitude, then the Macan Turbo is the ultimate drivers car...
