Variants:

The 2021 Porsche Macan is available in three trims – Macan, Macan S, and Macan GTS.

Market introduction:

The Macan facelift was launched in India on 12 November, 2021.

Engine and specifications:

The Macan is powered by two petrol powertrains. The standard Macan is plonked by a 2.0-litre turbocharged unit that puts out 261bhp and 400Nm of torque. Going up the ladder, the Macan S 2.9-litre twin-turbo V6 puts out a potent 375bhp and 520Nm of torque while the top-spec Macan GTS dishes out a prodigious 434bhp and 550Nm of torque. The transmission duties are handled by a seven-speed DCT unit.

Exterior design:

Design-wise, the Macan gets a slightly revised front apron with wider air intakes and a new front spoiler. Moving to the side, the alloy wheels can be had in seven different designs. The Macan GTS sits on 21-inch alloy wheels while other trims are fitted with smaller 19-inch and 20-inch alloy wheels. The posterior gets the black diffuser that is now extended upwards for a stylish and sporty look. Complementing the quad exhaust tips are LED tail lamps that get the signature horizontal stripe running across the boot. 

Interior and features:

Inside the cabin, the Macan gets the signature analogue clock at the top of the dashboard while the instrument cluster dials get a revised layout. Other highlights include electrically adjustable seats, a 10.9-inch touchscreen infotainment system, air suspension, adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, and park assist with active parking support.
