Porsche Macan! Arguably best compact SUV! (Walkaround Review)
2020 Porsche Macan (Review)
Crossovers typically prioritize everyday usability over all else, so the idea of a performance SUV might seem like an oxymoron. However, that hasn't stopped automakers from experimenting with hot small crossovers over the last decade. The 2020 Porsche Macan is perhaps the most successful of these sport-utility vehicles. When you consider its controlled ride, excellent seats, and choice of several powerful engines, it's hard to see the Macan as anything but one of the most well-rounded small SUVs available today.
For power, the standard Macan relies on a turbocharged four-cylinder engine. It's punchy enough for most buyers, but we think the V6 engine, which comes in the Macan S and more powerful Turbo, is worth getting. It gives the Macan the blinding speed you expect of a Porsche. The Turbo, which took a one-year hiatus for 2019, is now back and pumping out 434 horsepower, a 34-hp increase compared to the 2018 model.
Just be prepared to drop some serious coin since the Macan is significantly more expensive than its rivals. And the price only skyrockets from there once you start perusing Porsche's famous options list, which includes everything from a 16-speaker Burmester premium audio system to leather-wrapped sun visors. The Macan is also a little tight inside, so you'll find less rear legroom and cargo space than in more utilitarian competitors.
The good news is that you have some prime alternatives should you find the Macan not quite to your liking. BMW has rolled out its new high-performance X3 M and X4 M models this year, and Mercedes has updated its well-rounded GLC. But the core appeal of the Macan is that every version is sporty and fun to drive. If you want a small crossover SUV that's a lot like a sports car, the Macan is the way to go.
Porsche Macan models
The 2020 Porsche Macan is a five-seat small luxury SUV available in four trim levels: base, S, Turbo and GTS. All come standard with all-wheel drive and a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission.
The base model starts with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (248 horsepower, 273 lb-ft of torque), 18-inch wheels, front and rear parking sensors, a lane departure warning system, LED headlights, automatic wipers, heated mirrors, three-zone automatic climate control, partial leather and simulated suede upholstery, a 40/20/40-split folding rear seat, and a cargo cover.
Electronic features include a 10.9-inch touchscreen interface, web-based navigation, a Wi-Fi hotspot, four USB-C ports (two front, two rear), and a 10-speaker sound system with satellite and internet radio.
The Macan S is equipped similarly, with the notable exception of a turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 engine (348 hp, 354 lb-ft), 19-inch wheels, more powerful brakes, different exterior trim, and dual twin-pipe exhaust ports.
Performance-minded buyers should check out the GTS (late availability). It has a slightly smaller turbocharged 2.9-liter V6 good for 375 hp and 383 lb-ft of torque. An adaptive air suspension is standard, as are 20-inch wheels, a sport exhaust, and a variety of GTS-specific styling enhancements.
Still not enough for you? The Turbo ups the ante with a modified version of the 2.9-liter V6 (434 hp, 406 lb-ft of torque). Some features that are optional on the other trims are also present, such as a simulated suede headliner, a 14-speaker Bose audio system, Porsche Surface Coated Brakes (rotors are covered with a tungsten-carbide surface that reduces brake dust), and Porsche Active Suspension Management (adaptive dampers).
Options abound for all trims — bundled in packages and offered as stand-alone features. Highlights include the Premium package, which adds adaptive headlights, auto-dimming rearview and side mirrors, heated front and rear seats, Apple CarPlay, and the Bose audio system. A step further is the Premium Package Plus, which brings a panoramic sunroof, keyless entry and ignition, and ventilated front sport seats. The Sport Chrono package includes an analog stopwatch, launch control, and driver-selectable modes that optimize suspension and transmission settings.
Along with a dizzying array of interior and exterior trim upgrades, stand-alone options worth checking out include an adaptive air suspension, adaptive sport seats, an electronically locking rear differential, a premium 16-speaker Burmester audio system, lane keeping assist and adaptive cruise control.
