Porsche's "T" formula is well established, and works with mixed results, depending on how important a powerful engine is to the overall experience. In the Macan range, the engine is effective at all price points, but never the star of the show. So the new Macan T, by pairing the base-model engine, a turbo-four cylinder shared with the Volkswagen GTI, with top-spec chassis and handling options, is quite promising. It's quicker than the numbers would indicate, extremely lithe on its feet, with plenty of grip and feedback, and offers a truly luxurious experience for a reasonable amount of money.
Porsche Cars, North America provided the vehicle, insurance, and a tank of fuel for this review.

Update: I spoke to the Camao driver via IG. The driver apologized profusely. He had received some extremely bad news that morning and wasn't in the right headspace to be driving. He's also learned some bad VERY habits from other people that drive the canyons at night (I.E. crossing yellow touge style). I was empathetic (to the news he'd received) but told him to stop driving dangerously, do some track or Auto-X days, and learn responsible canyon driving so that he can enjoy this hobby for decades to come. - Zack

TST has always emphasized responsibility on public roads. I remember Matt was in a Maserati and accidently overcooked a turn, taking him into the other lane just a smidge. Nobody else on the road saw it but Matt was so apologetic and remorseful that he was going hard enough to be near that edge of grip.

@@corbinsmith50 Corbin, you're certainly correct as far as your comment went. "Out west," on the Sonoma County coast, north of SF, one crash like we almost witnessed would bring very heavy CHP monitoring for some length of time. They have no sense of humor over that sort of behavior. A very good friend of our family is a retired CHP Officer after 30 years service. He and I have occasionally talked about incidents he's had to clean up. I've driven on a commercial license for 50+ years and we've both seen too many scenes we really would like to be able to "un-see."

As a Porsche Factory Tech, I can tell you the 4 cylinder is far more reliable, and I have way more fun in the 4 cylinder with the sport suspension than I do in the 6 cylinder S with the base suspension. The 4 cylinder also has less turbo lag is is more economical to run/service over its life time. If you have to have the 6 cylinder, get the GTS.

Sounds like a compelling second hand option! I started out with a Macan S, which was loaded for my first Macan. It was a second hand car supplied by the OPC. It was excellent, then moved to a Turbo, also loaded. I still have the Turbo and it has been great; a lot of power put down well. As wife wife drives the Macan I am thinking a T would be an excellent replacement!

@JM-zs5hp 2 года назад

I think this would be a great time for you guys to put out an informational video on how to drive the canyons responsibly. Having lived in CO and UT, I can say that cutting lanes is the norm in Utah. Colorado drivers are mostly respectful and stay in their lane. I live 200 yards from the mouth of a canyon in Utah and we have close calls with people cutting their lane on a daily basis. Usually in pickups or "muscle cars".

In my experience, if one is buying a four cylinder Macan, the engine is not a pivotal criterion to the buying decision and hence other factors outweigh the engine choice. “Motorsport theater” as Matt might say is not an element one should expect from this model. The excellent seats, creature comforts and the handling are all there across the model line up.

Good judgement call on that Camaro. He could have been drunk or on drugs or both. It would make me sick to spend Porsche money and have a nit wit like that crash into me, provided that I survived the crash. That Porsche looked and sounded good even with the 4 cylinder engine. I think the lighter weight of the 4 cylinder makes a positive difference in handling. The t option is wise if you can save 15% rather than ordering options separately. Good review as always.

Yes it's a real Porsche... I'm looking forward to the Macan EV ⚡🤘

Sorry when I heard it only make 261hp I was like " my stage 1 mk5 gti MAKES THAT!" it really doesnt seem like a good deal at all from that standpoint. I would like to know how good it would be as a daily which is possibly the point of having the 2l turbo?

12:40 The 718 base engine definitely makes more power than this, but slightly less torque. With the car being way lighter idk how you can feel like this is more powerful.

I would love to see a flat 4 in this.

The Macan T is doing the sports car thing of making you pay more for less. But the Macan isn't a sports car. Just get the S for the relaxed engine and the tuning potential and the smoothness.

I wonder why they didn’t pull the engine from the Boxster?

Upgraded suspension, and an easily tunable engine? I like it.

I have a ‘17 S and love the car. Except for the engine and the TCC oil leak. Almost want the 4cyl for the better reliability than the 6cyl engine. Idk if Porsche ironed out all the issues with their sixes even now

Macan Turbo and S models are nice lil suv....until it's time to replace the belt, that price will be a huge sock to most, and make sure you do your PDK clutch fluid flush every 4 yrs or 40K (which ever comes first).

You could always tune it pretty easy to get an e888 over 400hp 👀

Skip to 5:20 for the Camaro

Too many self proclaimed enthusiastic drivers feel more comfortable than they should behind the wheel. It’s tons of solid metal rolling forward very quickly on a set of rubber disks with a relatively small and fragile contact patch. The fun turns into tears in the blink of an eye.

Which model is better the turbo or the gts

@cadriver2570 2 года назад

I bought an S model and I've got buyer's remorse. Without raging acceleration on par with the the M40i a crossover like this is pretty boring, even with good handling. The car isn't really whisper quiet at speed, but you still can't hear the engine note in sport mode like in the BMWs. At low speed it's all turbo whistle/hiss, which again BMW controls a lot better so you can hear that glorious inline 6. Not to mention the brake squeal.
