The new Porsche Macan is the car that turns Porsche into an SUV-maker. Yup, with demand for the Macan already outstripping supply, Porsche will soon make more Macan and Cayenne SUVs than Caymans, Boxster, 911s and 918s put together. What can those 50,000 Macan buyers look forward to – sports car DNA, or just a pricier Audi Q5 wearing a designer suit?
To find out, CAR dispatched Chris Chilton to Germany to test the new Porsche Macan Turbo on the racetrack and the road. It boasts a mouth-watering spec: a twin-turbo 394bhp V6, a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, all-wheel drive, and optional ceramic brakes – on an SUV! Does that lot add up to the best SUV we’ve ever driven? Find out right here.
