It is often difficult for those interested in purchasing their own Macan to determine which model is right for them. The fantastic Macan T is often overlooked as the middle ground option. For your convenience, we have outlined the five best features of the Macan T so you can understand more about where it sits in the Macan range.
Sitting in the middle of the coveted Macan range, the Porsche Macan T gives driving enthusiasts both exceptional comfort and impressive driving performance. With a turbocharged four-cylinder 2.0-litre engine, this transition from comfort to performance is seamless.
The engine sits longitudinally for better weight distribution and weighs 56kg lighter than its V6 counterpart in the Macan S. The engine positioning improves the Macan T’s handling through tight corners, enhancing the driving performance on country roads.
Like all Macan models, the Macan T features a marvellous seven-speed PDK gearbox. You can expect smooth and responsive gear changes that accentuate the sporty personality of the Macan T.
With Porsche’s Active Suspension Management system (PASM) as standard, when driving the Porsche Macan T you will experience truly magnificent ride quality and handling dynamics that all modern Porsche customers have come to expect.
Not only does PASM provide greater control through corners, it also lowers the ride height by an extra 15mm. Not only does this provide the Macan T with a sportier looking stance compared to the standard model, it creates a dynamic driving experience that makes the Macan T feel more like a hot hatch than a SUV.
The Macan T comes with a wide range of optional specifications fitted as standard. The Sports Chrono Package is one of these options, and comes complete with the Sports Chrono Clock mounted prominently in the middle of the car’s dash. The heated multifunction GT Sport wheel means you can choose your drive style from the steering wheel, a feature unique to the Sports Chrono Pack.
Additionally, the Macan T features main LED headlights which have Porsche’s Dynamic Lighting System (PDLS). This means that the Macan T’s headlights work both statically and dynamically, by adjusting the amount of light emitted depending on speed, and rotating the lights towards the apex of the bend when cornering for enhanced visibility in low light conditions.
The exterior aesthetics on the Macan T are certainly fit to match the model’s impressive performance. There are some distinctive features unique to the Macan T that make it easy to spot when out on the road. Agate Grey exterior highlights feature heavily on the Macan T’s exterior, and can be seen on the wing mirror caps, side blades, rear spoiler, front bumper, rear badge and exterior lettering.
Furthermore, an easy to spot a Macan T is its beautiful 20” alloy wheel design, finished in Dark Titanium, a feature that will be sure to catch everyones’ eye. The distinctive features continue throughout, with the Macan T’s sports tailpipes available in black. You can instantly recognise the Macan T and the tailpipes which enhance its playful capabilities.
The Macan T boasts an interior that is fit to match the model’s impressive performance and glorious exterior aesthetic. This begins with the electric front sports seats with 8-way adjustment, providing you with the most comfortable driving position. With the Porsche crest embedded in the headrests, subtle nods to the brand's sporting heritage are visible to those with a more inquisitive eye.
The upholstery is part-cloth, part-leather which creates a luxurious feel unique to the Macan T. The Agate Grey colour seen on the exterior is continued inside the car, with silver stitching used to craft the seats, headrests and steering wheel.
An instantly recognisable sporty SUV, packed full of the most up-to-date Porsche features. Why wouldn’t you give it a try? Book a test drive at Porsche Centre Bristol, Newport, Swindon or Tewkesbury today and you can experience the Macan T for yourself.
