New Porsche Macan S tested: Fast SUV drives like a hot hatch

AutoExec Summary
Porsche’s Macan SUV, introduced in 2014, has become the brand’s best-selling model in Australia. The 2019 model has been updated with design details from the Panamera sedan and Cayenne SUV, and features a new 10.9-inch touchscreen and improved sound insulation. The V6-powered S version is priced just under $100,000, but additional options and servicing costs can add up. The Macan S is powered by a 3.0-litre V6 turbo, producing 260kW/480Nm, with a 0-100km/h time of 5.1 seconds. The next-generation Macan will be electric-only. The Macan S is praised for its dynamic performance but criticized for its lack of standard features and expensive options.
