You aren’t usually so quick to brake.
Brakes.
At Porsche, we also set ourselves high
standards for braking performance. So it
goes without saying that our brake
systems are super-sized and adapted to
the high power output of the engine.
At the front, the Macan models are
equipped with six-piston aluminium
monobloc fixed brake calipers. The brake
discs are internally vented for consistently
high braking power, even during
continuous use.
To cope with the performance capabilit y
of the Macan models, the brake discs
fit ted to the front axle are up to 360 mm
in diameter. The brake calipers of the Macan S Diesel
and Macan S are silver- coloured. On the
Macan Turbo – red.
Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake
(PCCB).
As an option, you can have your Macan
equipped with the track-proven Porsche
Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB).
The cross- drilled ceramic brake discs
have a diameter of 396 mm at the front
axle and a thickness of 38 mm. At the
rear, they are 370 mm in diameter and
30 mm thick.
Their low thermal expansion prevents
deformation under heavy braking.
Furthermore, the ceramic brake discs are
totally resistant to corrosion and offer more favourable noise-damping
properties.
The key advantage is that the brake
discs are approximately 50
% lighter than
standard discs of similar design and size.
Enhanced performance and fuel economy
are not the only noticeable benefits:
above all, it represents a major reduction
in unsprung and rotating masses. The
results are improved handling, bet ter
roadholding and increased ride comfort.
Optional for all Macan models.
Porsche Stability Management (PSM).
PSM is an electronic control system that
maintains stability – and increases
driving safet y – even at the limits of
sporty performance. Sensors continuously monitor driving
direction, speed, yaw velocit y and lateral
acceleration. PSM
actively intervenes to
stabilise the vehicle when necessary by
strategically applying the brakes at
individual wheels. That ’s not all. If the
driver suddenly releases the accelerator
pedal, PSM primes the brake system for
a higher state of readiness. Maximum
braking power is therefore achieved
much sooner. The integral anti-lock
braking system (ABS) is optimised for
short braking distances.
Standard in all Macan models.
