Porsche used to be known as the 911 company. The Cayenne put an end to that, and so did the Taycan, both of which have comprehensively out-sold the iconic 911 sports car in Australia this year.
But if you’re looking for the model that really matters to Porsche in the modern era, it’s this one, the just-updated Macan, which outsells its nearest sibling by a factor of two to one in this market.
So yes, it’s important to Porsche. Which is why a heap of work has been done here to make this updated version more powerful and tech-savvy. There are new engines, new equipment and more performance, as well as an updated new look.
Porsche has pushed up the prices, yet still left out one crucial safety item as part of the standard equipment list. Has the Stuttgart sports-car brand done enough with this facelifted SUV? Can it compete with the likes of the Audi Q5 and Sportback, Mercedes GLC and Coupe, and the BMW X3 and X4?
Our man Andrew Chesterton has all the info you need to know.

I've had more than a dozen Porsches including two Macan's, currently have a 2020. A phenomenal car. Kick ass styling and kick ass performance. It's my winter car.
5:30 first reviewer to hit the nail on the head. feels like a hot hatch. no one else got that. that is how i felt.
Recently picked up my S in the Uk. Changed from a Mercedes GLC43 AMG and find it a much better drive. Love it.
Which years amg model did u have .
Great review!!
Great review! Only thing I’d say is you can’t compare the pricing of a 2022 GTS to the price of the 2021 GTS because the 2022 version has replaced the turbo. In the US the price for the flagship model has decreased $5,000 from last year
One thing missing : reasonable price
Few things missing in Andres: a conscience, a heart, and a life.
It's really a beautiful car
The Macan S was always the best choice in terms of usable performance, looks (marginally different) and price (unreasonable high). Despite the Turbo is more powerful, in real life traction issues limit power exploitation two-third of the time (few exceptions in summer).
What I miss in in this facelifting ( to smooth the introduction of the new generation) are revised seats like in the Cayenne, current one are quite old-style and do not match with Porsche vision. Definitely a marketing choice to avoid jeopardization with the upcoming versions ...
Very good video. May I know what kind of blue was the Macan you tested please?
I think its the new Gentine Blue borrowed from the 911.
Why don’t you guys review the GTS.
Love my Mercedes but this will be my upgrade!
Is your test car fitted with air suspension? I wonder how firm the ride is without it?
The Macan I'm driving here is the S model, so no air suspension. The GTS has air suspension fitted as standard.
I have air suspension on my S. In Sport+ mode it's pretty firm. Too floaty for me in regular mode. Sport mode is acceptable, but I'm in lowered and S+ 99.9% of the time.
Keep saying it : go S in base spec. go GTS as soon as you want to feel special
No rear aeb, no heads up display, terrible voice control commands, poor safety integration and $3k option for basic safety options. I really want to like the Macan S and even buy one but Porsche are really taking us as fools with the lack of a safety rating and safety equipment.
As soon as you start adding options to the S, the GTS makes more sense and is only slightly dearer
The launch GTS where I live was advertised at nearly $170K aud the launch S came in at just under $140k that’s still a significant difference.
Both had really good options added like panorama roof.
@@MrHoogoorock my order in a decently Specced GTS is just over 153k.
😎👍🏽
The one thing It’s missing for me is a manual transmission option.
Why no turbo?
There is none.
Turbo will reappear with the all-new Macan in 2023-ish. Possibly as an EV.
@@cheeeesto aren't these bi turbo?
@@Drewww71 ah sorry. Yes the engine is bi-turbo, but there is no Turbo model this time around.
The crucial thing missing is that most people don't have that kind of money to buy one.
That’s all well and good, but Porsche is a sneaky mob. If you want ANY added extras that are basically standard in most luxury brands you pay - and you pay through the nose.
Case in point: I designed an S model with some basic additions I’d expect in a luxury car and the DAP was >$170,000.00…… that’s far, far too much for a mini SUV….
You must have ticked every single option incl paint to sample to get a Macan S up that high. I have a fair number of options on my S (PASM + Airsusp, 18way, torque vectoring, 20" etc) and it was half that.
Going through the configurator I could not get it above 130K. That includes options that you'd likely never put in an S, since they come included cheaper in a GTS.
@@macans5010 yeah but I’m talking Aussie dollars where we pay more for most things.
@@Ofthe7thSon And it's a 1.4x conversion rate from USD as well. I also assume you have a sales and registration tax above 8%.
@@macans5010 hey mate, yeah we have a luxury car tax.
Luxury car tax (LCT) is a tax on cars with a GST-inclusive value above the LCT threshold.
LCT is imposed at the rate of 33% on the amount above the luxury car threshold.
It sux big time…!!!
Every Aussie reviewers seem to say the same thing - the S is the sweet spot. I genuinely do not think that the base S without any option is the Macan to get - $100,000+ just for the badge. It’s like buying an A1 and tell everyone you drive an Audi 🤦🏻♂️
Add the options that most Porsche buyer would and the S is no longer as sweet a spot as the GTS in my opinion. GTS all the way or save up a little bit longer to get one.
I agree - once optioned the price isn't that far off and there are a few exclusive aesthetics you cannot get on the S either. I'd get the GTS over the S and fork out the extra $ hah. It's more I can't decide between a base Cayenne with some options vs. Macan GTS and how much space I can compromise T_T

Wow 😮 now I understand why used vehicles are so expensive now. The prices are insane and not worth it especially for the basic model. With options you then go to another level of insanity. Performance is not good either. While the ride quality is excellent the ICE has no business being there. Too dam slow for a Porsche. The Tesla model Y long range will zip of the line just as good for 20k less and spend an extra 2k and you will blow the doors of a gts macan. We now see who inflation ruins everything
The only thing missing is that it is not an EV.
Thank god for that.
@@jackayres1569 so you are not into EVs?
@@antonymcneillis no.
No android auto = Fail
poor interiors details
Nice reveiw there are poor reliability so super deep pockets are essential
Android Auto.
Just a VW really. Next.
2022, and no android auto standard? Slower than competupition, handling is on par with x3m and glc63s, so who buys macan? Wannabes?
I currently have a GLC63 and drove a GTS and X3M Comp, back to back. Have you driven a new GTS? It is a far better vehicle than the BMW or Benz, and it’s not even close.
