For fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and efficiency class, please refer to pages 126–127.
Fitted as standard, 7-speed Porsche
Doppelkupplung (PDK) lets you experience
motorspor t-st yle gear changes, which
take place in milliseconds and with no
interruption in the flow of power. The
system also features a coasting mode,
which reduces fuel consumption and
emissions where the driving situation
allows. To this end, the auto start /stop
function, intelligent thermal management
and many more efficiency-enhancing
measures make a decisive contribution.
The steel spring suspension, fit ted as
standard, helps to provide the driving
precision and performance t ypical of any
Porsche. As an option (standard in the
Macan Turbo), it can be upgraded to
include optional Porsche Active
Suspension Management (PASM). At the
push of a but ton, the shock absorbers
respond even more precisely to the
current driving st yle. An air suspension is
available for even greater dynamic
performance and a high level of ride
comfort. With this suspension, the Macan
sits 15 mm lower. The three-position
ride-height adjustment capability enables you to adapt it optimally to the driving
situation.
Optional Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus
(PT V Plus) lets you feel the Macan
principle in every corner – and in a
particularly intense way. Operating in
conjunction with an electronically
controlled rear differential lock, the
system works by varying the torque
distribution to the rear wheels and
thereby significantly further improves
handling and steering precision. It also
increases the agilit y of the car when it
attacks the corner.
Naturally, active safet y also follows the
Macan principle – and, in doing so, fulfils
the requirements of a sports car.
Integrated as standard, Porsche Stability
Management (PSM) helps to ensure
stabilit y at the limits of sport y
performance. Typically Porsche, the
brakes set standards for deceleration.
Optional driver assistance systems
relieve your workload so that you can
have more fun. Adaptive cruise control including Porsche Active Safe (PAS)
regulates the speed of your vehicle in
line with the speed of the vehicle in
front. Lane Change Assist monitors your
blind spots, while Lane Keeping Assist
monitors your car’s distance to divider
line markings on the road.
Intensive living can also be measured in
bits and by tes, with Porsche Car
Connect for instance. Available as an
option, our comprehensive packages of
remote and PV TS (Porsche Vehicle
Tracking System) services provide you
with all the important information about
your Macan – not only when you’re
behind the wheel. Other digital
functionalities of the Macan include the
abilit y to log into social net works or
search for a Point of Interest and then
select it directly as your navigation
destination. Being highly net worked –
that, too, can be the principle of a
s p o r t s c a r.
So you see: for us, staying true to one’s
principles is essential. The principle of
power above all.

Macan S Diesel38 | Life, intensified
The new allure of a long-distance relationship.

Macan S Diesel.
Whoever actually said that intense
moments had to be so fleeting?
The Macan S Diesel provides a lasting
endorphin rush on long journeys.
On principle, we build every Porsche to
be as efficient as possible. This is
particularly true in the case of the
Macan S Diesel. The engine is a 3.0 -litre
V6 turbo diesel capable of delivering
190 kW (258 hp). Maximum torque is a
beefy 580 Nm. 0 to 100 km/ h takes
6.3 seconds. Impressive for a diesel.
Impressive for a sports car: relatively low
fuel consumption and emissions for such
power. That ’s partly down to the SCR system
(selective catalytic reduction). In
conjunction with a diesel particulate

filter, it provides an environmentally
friendly exhaust gas recirculation
solution.
The Macan S Diesel is identifiable by the
exterior ‘diesel’ logos on the front left
and right – and by the 18-inch Macan S
wheels and silver- coloured brake
calipers.
Interior features, including two-zone
automatic climate control, as well as the
high degree of storage flexibilit y are the ideal prerequisites for long drives. With
options such as an electrically extending
towbar system or roof rails, you can
ensure that the Macan S Diesel is even
better prepared.
The Macan S Diesel. Heart-pounding fun
that lasts the distance.

Even a life of moderation can be lived with intensity.

Engine.
Auto start/stop function.
To improve fuel economy, the auto start/
stop function switches off the engine
when you are coming to a stop at traffic
lights, for example.
Standard in all Macan models.
VarioCam.
In all Macan models with petrol engine,
the intake and exhaust camshafts are
each equipped with a fully variable vane-
cell controller for stepless timing
adjustments. This helps to deliver high
specific power and high torque – even at
low engine speeds – and, above all,
reduced fuel consumption and low
emissions.
Standard in the Macan Turbo and Macan S.
VarioCam Plus.
With their twin-turbo V6 engine, the
Macan Turbo and Macan S are additionally
equipped with VarioCam Plus. This system

switches the lift of the intake valves,
resulting in instant acceleration and
smooth engine running performance.
Standard in the Macan Turbo and Macan S.
Coasting.
The coasting function enables you to
save even more fuel where the situation
allows. The engine is decoupled from
the transmission, which avoids the
deceleration caused by engine braking.
In this way, the vehicle makes optimum
use of its own momentum and is able to
coast for longer distances. This has real
benefits for fuel consumption without any
impact on comfort or sporty performance.
Standard in all Macan models.
For fuel consumption, CO
2 emissions and efficiency class, please refer to pages 126–127.

Engine46 | Dynamics
Direct fuel injection (DFI).
With millisecond precision, DFI injects
fuel at up to 200 bar directly into the
combustion chamber by means of

electromagnetically actuated injection
valves. The spray and cone angles have
been optimised for torque, power output,
fuel consumption and emissions by
enabling a homogeneous distribution of
the air/fuel mixture and, therefore,
effective combustion. DFI improves the
internal cooling of the combustion
chamber by having the mixture prepared
directly in the cylinder. This allows for a
higher compression ratio, which helps to
deliver greater power output at the same
time as enhanced engine efficiency.
Common-rail diesel injection system.
In the Macan S Diesel, fuel is directly
injected by a common-rail injection
system. The injection pressure of up to
2,000 bar ensures effective mixture
formation and enhanced dynamic
performance. Piezo-controlled injectors
enable a flexible injection process with multiple injections taking place per
stroke and delivering fuel in the exact
amounts required for smooth
combustion.
Thermal management.
Engine cooling is prevented during the
initial stages of a cold start so that the
engine reaches its optimum operating
temperature faster. This means it can
begin working at high efficiency sooner,
thereby consuming less fuel.
Active aerodynamics.
The radiator grille shut ter opens the
cooling air flaps only as needed.
Whenever the cooling requirement is low,
such as on relaxed drives, the radiator
grille shut ter closes. Aerodynamics are
improved, which helps to improve fuel
economy. If, for example, a sport y
driving st yle is adopted and the demand
for power increases, the cooling air flaps
will open and let in the necessary amount
of cooling air for increased driving
performance.
O il supp ly.
The integrated dry-sump lubrication of the
V6 petrol engines guarantees a reliable
supply of oil in all driving situations. The
oil reservoir is located directly inside the
engine, which saves on space and weight.

An electronically controlled oil pump
provides the correct amount of oil as and
when needed. Optimised for sport y
driving, it ensures optimum engine
lubrication even in extreme situations.
For fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and efficiency class, please refer to pages 126–127.

Exhaust turbocharging.
The V6 t win-turbo engines are equipped
with t wo turbochargers arranged in
parallel – one for each cylinder bank.
Intake air is compressed and then fed to
the engine via the respective charge-air
cooler. This cooling process achieves
t wo things: high cylinder charge and low
component temperatures.
Electrical system recuperation.
To enhance efficiency, the electrical
system in the Macan models is recharged
on demand during engine overrun
phases. Fuel consumption is thereby
reduced, while the full power output of
the engine is made available for
acceleration phases. You won’t notice
any thing of the process itself, except for
the results: optimum power and torque
with lower fuel consumption and CO
2
emissions.
SPORT button.
The SPORT but ton, which is fit ted as
standard, enables you to select a set-up
that favours either comfort or sport y
performance. At the push of a but ton,
the electronic engine management
system switches the engine mapping to
offer an even sharper response and
engine dynamics that are more direct.
SCR system.
The SCR system (selective cataly tic
reduction) in the Macan S Diesel works in
conjunction with a diesel particulate filter
and AdBlue
® technology to provide an
environmentally friendly exhaust gas
recirculation solution and a significant
reduction in nitrogen oxide emissions.
AdBlue
® is a replenishable liquid added
to a separate tank.
Sports tailpipes.
Sports tailpipes are available for your
Macan on request. The t win dual-tube
tailpipes are specially designed and
feature a highly polished chrome-plated
stainless steel finish, also available in
chrome-plated black. A sporty statement
that is visually unmistakable.

Optional for all Macan models.
Sports exhaust system.
The optional sports exhaust system
delivers an even more resonant sound.
The chromium-plated sports tailpipes –
available in a choice of silver colour or
black – are a treat for both the eyes and
the ears.
Optional for all Macan models.

OFF-ROAD button.
Would you like to try roads that aren’t
actually there? A but ton on the centre
console sets your Macan to OFF-ROAD
mode. All relevant systems switch to a
traction- optimised program for off-road
terrain. The optional air suspension
including PASM automatically adjusts to
Terrain Level. In addition, optional
Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV Plus)
and Porsche Stability Management (PSM)
– integrated as standard – optimally
adapt their set-up for off-road use,
delivering improved driveability and
safety.
PTM, which is also fit ted as standard,
provides a fully variable distribution of
drive force bet ween the front and rear axles – up to 100
% if necessary. This
delivers a crucial increase in traction and
driving safety.
Standard in all Macan models.
Porsche Hill Control (PHC).
A but ton on the centre console enables
you to activate Porsche Hill Control
(PHC), which keeps your speed constant
on downhill gradients. You can set any
speed bet ween 3 and 30 km/ h.
Standard in all Macan models.
Steering.
The steering has been engineered for
sporty and immediate handling. The
tuning of the electromechanical steering
system is what makes the Macan models
so extraordinarily agile. It also contributes to low fuel
consumption. As there is no hydraulic
system constantly drawing power, energy
is consumed only when the steering is
turned.
Power steering Plus.
Optional Power steering Plus is a speed-
sensitive power steering system. At high
speeds, the steering firms up and
responds with greater precision, while
steering comfort remains outstanding. At
low speeds, the steering ratio adjusts for
easy manoeuvring and parking.
On the odd occasion,

even a Porsche doesn’t seem out of place.

Life can’t be truly intense without some twists and turns.
Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus
(PTV Plus).
Sports car makers adore corners. With
our technologies, we are forever fanning
the flames of the relationship. PT V Plus
is an optional system for enhancing both
driving dynamics and stability.
Operating in conjunction with an
electronically regulated rear differential
lock, it works by varying the torque
distribution to the rear wheels. When the
car is driven into a corner, moderate
brake pressure is applied to the inside
rear wheel as the situation demands.
Consequently, a greater amount of drive
force is distributed to the outside rear
wheel, inducing an additional rotational
pulse (yaw movement) around the
vehicle’s vertical axis. The effect is a
direct and sport y steering action. And
considerable driving pleasure at every
t wist and turn. At low and medium vehicle speeds, PT V
Plus significantly increases agilit y and
steering precision. At high speeds on the
straight, and in fast corners where the
wheels threaten to spin, the electronically
controlled rear differential lock provides
added driving stability. Stability is also
improved on road surfaces with varying
grip as well as in the wet and snow.
Optional for all Macan models.
Sport Chrono Package.
The Sport Chrono Package adds a
stopwatch with an analogue and a digital
display to the cockpit. The performance
display in PCM lets you view a range of
driving stats, including your total driving
time, current lap distance and lap times
recorded so far. The lateral and
longitudinal forces acting on the vehicle
are illustrated by the G -Force graphic on
the colour screen in the instrument
c l u s t e r.The centre console also comes equipped
with the SPORT PLUS but ton, which is
used to activate SPORT PLUS mode. In
this mode, the engine becomes even
more responsive and the rev limiter is
adjusted to a harder set ting. Porsche
Traction Management (PTM) is now tuned
for even sportier performance. For cars
with Porsche Active Suspension
Management (PASM), SPORT PLUS mode
results in harder damping and more
direct steering. In addition, the trigger
threshold for PSM is raised for increased
longitudinal and lateral dynamics. The
shift times of PDK, fit ted as standard,
become even shorter, the gear changes
even sportier. The optional air suspension
automatically drops to Low Level. Launch
Control is primed to deliver optimum
acceleration from a standing start.

Optional for all Macan models.
