Thank you, Dave for your review. Great one.. Am impressed to see that ‘T’ provides the agility & driving dynamics, does that goes for original spec T to be for enthusiast & fun daily drive.. or do you think having PVT + Air Suspension (expensive a must for T. Please let me know your thoughts.. Thank you. KR
Thank you! The tweaks to the Macan T do give it an edge, though having tried the standard suspension and the optional air setup, I'd stick with the regular steel springs and maybe spend the money on something else. ^Dave
It really boils down to what engine you'd prefer. The V6 has a lot more character, whereas the 2.0 lacks sound and performance, but it does have slightly better handling due to a lighter engine being in the front. Best to look at the T as being a better version of the base Macan rather than an alternative to the S. ^Dave
With the incoming electric version, it’s getting really hard to justify the Macan price here in Ireland, as reflected in the almost zero sales of late. There’s a couple of demos in Porsche Dublin with 2-3,000kms for €113k and €117k respectively - a few grand shy of an e-hybrid Cayenne. When the EV arrives, there’ll be few who lament the demise of the 2.0L Macan I think
The taxation doesn't help here, but Ireland is a tiny market in the global picture. In places like China, the 2.0-litre is the biggest selling version, accounting for 90% of Macan sales. Porsche has sold 680,000 Macans since 2014. ^DH
The EV range is going to be horrible especially in cold weather states. The Porsche dealers around here in the Midwest USA can’t keep the Macan in stock. I had to order my Macan.
Nick Murray hasn't driven one so he's not got any idea what the T is about ask someone who's got both Gts Gen 3 & T part from the power difference the T is a mini Gts when it comes to handling also the power on T is more than enough for the local roads.
I don’t Know why Porsche wasted there time with another model of a gas Macan there literally wasting there money because the lineup in 2023 will only be electrick. BTW i still like the Macan T a lot i just think that they might have wasted there time thats all because they are going to get rid of this cars build in like a year right?
The electric Macan will be shown later this year, for production in 2023, but there's still a huge number of markets that want gasoline Macan models. Creating the T version wasn't a hugely expensive thing to do either, so it makes sense for Porsche to do so. The Macan accounts for 29% of all Porsche sales.
@@CompletecarIe Yeah i agree there is still a lot of people that want gasoline but will it help them though to create another Macan, because isn’t the Macan S only 3000 dollars more? In US at least. Also like will it have more people by the macan? Also my mistake i did not know that it is not that expensive to create i just assumed it was.
The Macan ICE makes a lot of money for Porsche and it is a hot seller. Also the EV won’t be around for another year or so. Also the EV will price above the GTS over 100 grand.
