My 2020 Macan S

It’s definitely worth the extra money if performance, handling, and quality of assembly matters. It’s an absolute pleasure to sit in and drive, surrounded by a expertly engineered and configured cockpit of gauges, physical switches and knobs.The new high resolution 10.2” touch screen is responsive and intuitive to use, and comes with a complement of physical buttons as well. Surprisingly, the Model S 3.0 L V6 is more fuel efficient that I expected. Yes, how you drive will affect mileage greatly. However, it’s fairly easy to get about 25 mpg driving at a steady 70-75. The engine exhaust note is rather muted, I regret not getting the sport exhaust. The premium plus package is a great choice and a good starting point. If you choose the 20/21 inch wheels also get the PASM or air suspension. I have 19 inch wheels the the standard steel springs are just fine.

I owned the Macan S before buying the base model (to save a few dollars). The additional power is noticeable, but the base is still a great car. If power is a concern, opt for the S trim or higher. Also, rear legroom is tight and cargo space isn't the best, but it's perfect for my needs. The initial model when the Macan launched had some kinks in the PCM (Porsche's infotainment system), but the newer models are vastly improved. I looked at most of the Macan's direct competitors, but felt the Macan is still the best in its class.

Excellent vehicle but not perfect

I bought my 2022 Macan S after a 6 month wait after ordering. I paid MSRP for $92K and change before tax. I have never owned a car that received so many compliments. Of course being a Porsche will get you that but my main compliment is for its Miami Blue color with 21” Spyder wheels. Performance wise my Macan leaves no wants. That engine mated with the PDK transmission and the suspension with PASM makes it more of a sports car than a compact SUV. The Sport Chrono package in Sport Plus turns it into a beast. A GTS spec’d out the same as my S would have only cost me $6K more (with a couple of free options) but it would have only given me .3 sec faster to 60 mph and I was told would have had a rougher ride. Just for the GTS badge in the back. The S is the sweet spot in this model line. My negatives are few. The standard speedometer and tach dials (dark gray) have a small hood over them that casts a shadow making the dials darker to read than they should be. At night with them lit it’s no problem but in daytime it lacks in my opinion. I wish I had paid for lighter colored dials. Sometimes with the key fob in my pocket the engine will not start and a warning display sign states that the car is not reading the fob. When I move the fob around inside my pants pocket the car will eventually start. Sometimes I have to move the fob 2-3 times. The 360 degree camera is a very nice feature but the back up camera view is not a direct view and a little curvy. I don’t like that. It takes some getting used to. If you pay extra for the Porsche crest on the headrests (like I did) they don’t show very well on dark upholstery. The (haptic) buttons I really dislike like everyone else does. You have to take your eyes off of the road to activate them. I wish they would have left the real buttons from the 2021 and before models.

Without an upgrade on the power seats adjustment is limited. At this price I would expect a fully adjustable power seat on the driver’s side
