Drove this car yesterday, just an amazing car, it's not just a sports car, it's a practical vehicle as well for your everyday life. 10/10. The pad's shift response is just instant.
I've had 12 older Porsche 911s, but that was 13 years ago. I just learned that the Macan Diesel is available with the PDK Transmission, this sounds extremely interesting. I never thought I would own another Porsche, but this may change things! I need to find a used one to Test Drive. I'll need some Towing capability however.
+GluboGrine Die "Sport"-Taste ist Standard. Für die "Sport Plus"-Taste braucht man das etwa 1100 Euro teure Sport Chrono Paket. Dann bekommt man auch die Uhr auf dem Armaturenbrett.
+William Smith Puh...hard to say. The petrol one sounds a lot better and has a more sporty character, definitely is quicker. But if you just want a car for long trips with style and you don't care as much about performance, the diesel is a very good choice as it doesn't sound like a diesel.
Great post. You covered a lot. Nice car. Is the Macan similar in size to the Audi Q5 and/or the VW Touareg? I never considered the Macan. I love it! Don't know much about it though. I'm 6' 2" and the Audi Q5 (before 2013) feels tight for me. I've been waiting for a German auto maker to bring out a strong diesel SUV (more than 450 ft. lbs of torque). The BMW X5 has that twin turbo diesel in Europe, but it's not coming here. The Europeans seem to get the the higher torque diesel motors. The Touareg 3.0L is a bit weak and is well over $60k here in US. The VW has well-known issues with quality and their diesel in my opinion, should be much stronger for that price point. The Q5 diesel has similar power numbers to the Touareg. I waited for a while for the 2015 BMW X5 Diesel to come out in the US and they decided to cut the power for US bound vehicles. It has a bigger interior than the well-made Q5, but similar to the Q5, it has it's irritating iDrive (without touch screen) like the Audi's horrible MMI. I've used both interfaces and from your video, the Macan has a MUCH more user-friendly, touch-screen interface with reliable buttons! (Good demo!). That's important for me. I just won't consider the Q5 at this time (Audi's new Q7 is not here yet), because their MMI is impossible to use quickly. I hate it. I love Audis but they won't compromise. Their quality is impeccable but they are ruled by technocrats. I'm a power junkie and I've owned a big, modern diesel Chevy Duramax pick-up in the past while I lived in the cold mid-west. The Duramax is a very powerful and trouble-free motor. Diesel is unmatched. I want an SUV with big torque reminiscent of the last generation Touareg V10 diesel that had over 500 ft. lbs of torque. Why did they stop making that amazing motor? After seeing this video, I believe Porsche has risen to the occasion and produced a solid diesel SUV paired with an intuitive interface and Porche's seemingly potent DNA. I am shocked at the performance but not surprised it is a Porsche. From this video, perhaps Porsche will lead this segment and will prompt me to check it out. I am going to see this SUV at the Porsche dealer. Thanks for the post!
dzlfnatk Appreciate your feedback! Yes, the Macan is "based" on the Q5 therefore has a similar size. I will also be presenting the 2015 BMW X5 (M50d) in a Drive & Sound video within the next days and that's also a great car. But overall, the Porsche is better and worth its money!!!
Nein, in diesem Fahrzeug nicht. Was bedeutet, dass er im Innenraum wie ein normaler (laufruhiger) 6-Zylinder klingt, von außen allerdings im Sport-Plus Modus sehr bassig, da sich scheinbar eine Klappe in der Abgasanlage öffnet, für einen Diesel schon ziemlich cool.
Istanbul-1453 Ja, die Serienmäßige Anlage für den Diesel S, es gibt ja noch eine optionale Sportabgasanlage die dem des Benziners ähneln soll. Ob das dann gut klingt weiß ich (noch) nicht.
+may1787 We have a Macan, my father is on his second Evoque. The Evoque is a nice car, but nowhere near the power or agility of the Macan. The Macan is also quieter in the cabin. Drive them both and pick the one you prefer.
hdidane00 no incorrect. The car is 30% Audi Q5 and 70% Porsche parts. Rumour is they spend £1billion on developing and would have been easier to build from scratch and that is what they will do with the 2020 new model coming in to production. Late this year 2018 or 2019 they will have a facelift
ich bin mega enttäuscht von Porsche, antatt einen Motor zu nehmen der des Namens würdig ist, beispielsweise den aus dem SQ5 mit 313 PS (von Porsche aber gerne auch gepimpt) nutzt man wieder das alte Aggregat.... Sorry aber so ist der für mich nciht kaufbar! Ziert halt ab Februar ein SQ5 von MTM (MTM Chip 313 PS ..>360 PS) die Gerage.
Diesels do not work well here in Colorado or in places where it gets really cold... Heck.. In North Dakota, they even have to plug in Gas Cars it gets so cold there.. Yikes !!
we buy diesel because we can not afford fuel and its porsche... IF u can not afford the fuel buy smaller car and cheaper petrol engine and get sound... but no people take credit bank and paying everymonth 1200 dollars and to have for fuel bill.. and they don't even have for food... I have diesel because i have no money for fuel. Not because of fuel economy. When i had money before i had petrol. SImple. U buy petrol porsche if u are rich.. Where is the logic to spend 200.000 grand and to have diesel ? Really logical.

I have a GTS
This is what you want for a car review. 😎👍🏼

To be honest, with diesel engine isn't true PDK as with petrol engines, it's something like modified S-tronic from Audi
Nice video, I'm drooling all over this car!!!
the guy driving this car is a very good driver because he wears gloves when driving
The full Drive & Sound!
Is it with PSE ON ?
Yes
such a good car it eats the compact suv segment
Love the sound
Amazing car.
Love the driving gloves!
A present from his boyfriend
PDK is awesome
Wow, this Porsche SUV sure drives ten times better than a Toyota Landcruiser.
That's like comparing a two completely different purpose cars, don't be silly Sir.
WOW!! String backed " driving " gloves ?? A blast from the past ( circa 1965 :-)) )
Very nice car
Sounds really nice
Hallo.
Noch immer ein schones und super auto!
Zind 0 auf 100 und 100 - 200 km/h GPS gemessen mit racelogic?
sind die verschiedenen modi (sport tasten usw) extra zu bezahlen oder in der standardausführung enthalten?
+GluboGrine Die "Sport"-Taste ist Standard. Für die "Sport Plus"-Taste braucht man das etwa 1100 Euro teure Sport Chrono Paket. Dann bekommt man auch die Uhr auf dem Armaturenbrett.
Great reviews!! Would you buy the S diesel over the S petrol variant? Both have there pros and cons but still left undecided about the two.?

Diesel in my opinion, torque benefits, also surely people are not looking for ultimate sport in a car this size
Wait this is the engine also powered the Volkswagen amarok !?
yes xddd
wie immer ein tolles Video ! Aber der Preis für ein einigermassen normal ausgestatteten Macan ist schlichtweg unverschämt.
Naja, Rolex Preise sind auch unverschämt, aber Qualität und Luxus hat seinen Preis 👻
Nice vidéo !!!
Very nice vid thx ! Did u experience (sometimes) a sound of clucking in the trunk while you go over bumps or unstable surface on the road ?
Thanks! No, I can't remember hearing that sound.
Which will be good choice in Germany Macan S diesel or S petrol?
ijaz ahamed Petrol
How it will feel driving the macan with 18inch instead of the 21 inch wheel? Comfort-grib-speed
amarok v6?
Great post. You covered a lot. Nice car.

why they can't invent something so that the diesel car pipe sounds better than crap?
good job. we want a review of 2014 Volkswagen Phaeton
Good idea dude:-)
Bellissima auto l auto che darebbe tanta bella felicità Claudio
Excuse me! What the name of cameras you use for this video? Quality is great!
Sony HDR 650 and GoPro Hero 3+
Thank you!
Automann-TV Where Can i Get those GLOVES?
Super Video wie immer :)
Wird der Sound durch einen Soundgenerator unterstützt?
Nein, in diesem Fahrzeug nicht. Was bedeutet, dass er im Innenraum wie ein normaler (laufruhiger) 6-Zylinder klingt, von außen allerdings im Sport-Plus Modus sehr bassig, da sich scheinbar eine Klappe in der Abgasanlage öffnet, für einen Diesel schon ziemlich cool.
+Automann-TV Aber verbaut ist keine Sportabgasanlage oder? Also die originale meine ich.
Istanbul-1453 Ja, die Serienmäßige Anlage für den Diesel S, es gibt ja noch eine optionale Sportabgasanlage die dem des Benziners ähneln soll. Ob das dann gut klingt weiß ich (noch) nicht.
what was that? 1:05 :)
A motorbike
1:40 COOL!
When you consider it is a disel
Nice
Guys please help me which can should I buy!!!? Porsche Macan Turbo/S 2016 or Land Rover Evoque 2016 model. !!? Advice would be appreciated....
may1787 Totally different vehicles, price and quality/performance-wise. The Macan surely is two classes above!
+may1787 We have a Macan, my father is on his second Evoque. The Evoque is a nice car, but nowhere near the power or agility of the Macan. The Macan is also quieter in the cabin. Drive them both and pick the one you prefer.
@@jutahbagels5805 How is the realibility of the Evoque? I have the Macan S and love it and my bro wants to get an Evoque
may 177 ts out of the quesion... Porsche ofcourse!!!!!
Which country is this???
힝힝힝 It's Germany
LoL Mäkänikz thank you ~^^
What an audi
Schönes Video und tolles Auto.
Bei 200km/h geht ihm dann aber doch etwas die Luft aus.
Ich glaube ich würde ihn chippen
@ 0.39 secs that engine sounds very rattly - not what I'd expect from Porsche. I presume it's because it's a diesel.
the only thing porsche in the power train is the PDK everything else is VW

der Q5 sieht aber Kacke aus,hol dir lieber den Macan und lass ihn für kleines Geld chippen , geht locker über 300PS

Hübsche Handschuhe.
i have to get
Faltó una imagen de la parte de la palanca de cambio y los botones del lado derecho ... una lástima
Y de la velocidad máxima en la autopista...
This exterior still beautiful but the interior is getting so old ! Too bad that Porsche stoped doing Diesel engine :(
Why it can't be just a 911 sedan...why ?
So slow i dont know but this car needs minimum 300 hp.
leather gloves for porsche diesel with audi engine...😂😂
A Porsche with a Diesel engine… shouldn’t be allowed! Shame on you Porsche!!!
sounds like a lawn mower
Sounds like a disesel what did you expect
It actually doesn't make any sound lol
because its electric vehicle dumbass
+Michael Andreas its diesel not electric
I think it sounds excellent for a diesel

Embarrassing gloves
