Is the base Porsche Macan worth 50k?
Hey Guys, summer break is over insofar as the guys are back at schoo or should be!. In my case I am still in the South of France and the weather is simply gorgeous. High 20s and clear blue skies. We've almost finished the video on the GT3 Full Review except for one rather important item, not yet had the car at 9000rpm on camera. Not because our GT3 isn't run in yet, it is but because the roads around here are clogged for miles and the only real way to get around is by boat! We shall rectify this real soon.
Today we are going to talk about the Porsche Macan. Not the performance variants but the base model. This is a 2 litre in-line 4 engine giving a 0-62 time of 6.7 secs, a top speed of 146 and produces 252hp from an engine shared within the Audi group. Worth of the Porsche moniker, we shall see.
Pricing for the 4 cylinder Macan starts at just below the £46K mark and is simply badged ‘Macan’.
In terms of rivals, our BMW X3 does better in terms of space, but can’t match the Macan for driving dynamics or interior quality and all the X3s in this country are diesel of course. However we feel that the X3 just doesn't feel as quality an item as the Porsche. Porsche really have nailed their cars production from a quality viewpoint.
Possibly Jaguar's F-Pace provides the closest rival to the Macan though Land Rover's Velar also comes close and adds that extra level of comfort into the mix. The closest F-Pace at a price level a few thousand less than the four cylinder Macan is the 2.5t AWD and it differentiates itself by offering substantially more cabin space. Also the way the F-Pace drives really is on a par with the Macan though perhaps not as dynamically resolved or as polished as the Porsche to drive above nine tenths. On balance we still give our recommendation to the Porsche overall especially to the driver that values his driving experience.
Any downsides, the real world performance is only so so. Buy the S if you want performance and the lack of rear leg room is a problem if you regularly travel with four adults. But thats it, a true performance SUV.
With the revised Macan being launched at the Paris show in less than a months time now may well be the time to get yourself onto what is the current premium sports SUV champion.
Anyway thanks for watching and please make sure you subscribe now to see further videos when they are released and there will be quite a few coming!
