About the Porsche Macan
Crafted with the same inspired power that’s made Porsche an icon across the globe, the dynamic Macan offers a bold combination of practicality and prestige. Immediately recognizable as a Porsche, the Macan is differentiated by its bold styling along with a sophisticated presence on the road. Underneath the hood lies your choice of turbocharged engines including a potent 4-cylinder or muscular V6, paired with the legendary Porsche Traction Management (PTM) all-wheel drive system. Meticulously designed to place essential functions within arm’s reach of the driver, the luxurious interior of the Macan features premium materials along with cutting-edge driver assistance innovations. The ultimate option for drivers leading active lifestyles, the Porsche Macan is perfectly suited for both downtown boulevards and twisting mountain passes. No other luxury vehicle lets you enjoy the thrills of a sports car along with the proven practicality of a compact SUV like the Macan.
What’s New for 2025
Changes to the Porsche Macan are mostly minor for the 2025 model year. The previously optional Porsche Surface Coated Brakes that were offered on all Macan trims are now restricted only to range-topping Macan GTS variants for 2025. In other news, Porsche has restructured the exterior color choices into four new categories – Contrasts, Shades, Dreams, and Legends. Aside from those updates, the Porsche Macan is back for the new model year almost entirely unchanged from the prior year.
What the Critics Say
“Quickness is important in a crossover with sporting intentions, but we wouldn’t be nearly as impressed with the Macan if it weren’t for its all-around competence on the road. It feels remarkably like a sports sedan. The ride is wonderfully smooth and carefully controlled, and it’s rare for a jolt from the pavement to make itself known to the driver.” — Car and Driver
“The Porsche Macan is a compact SUV with performance that lives up to the crest on its hood. The dream of the SUV that drives like a sports car is alive in the Macan in much the same way that it is in the bigger Cayenne. The difference is the Macan has a smaller footprint and less weight, making it more agile.” — Kelley Blue Book
