We could etch character in stone.
But we prefer more dynamic forms of expression.
Exterior design.
What makes a Porsche a Porsche? The
fact that it is instantly recognisable, some
would answer. Others might say it ’s the
face that stands out from the crowd.
Our engineers would say that it ’s the
Porsche DNA.
We’re referring to a design language that
has survived and described 65 years of
sports car evolution, whether in the wind
tunnel, on the racetrack, in minds or in
hearts. It gives every Porsche its own
unmistakable character. And our
development of it goes on.
The face alone of the Macan lays bare
the dominant sport y genes of its hereditary
line. The characteristic headlights are
integrated into the bonnet. The large,
imposing air intakes of the front apron are
just waiting to inhale life. Every single
second. The bonnet stretches through to the
wheel arches. This lends the front a
broad and powerful presence and
reminds us of the legendary Porsche 917,
which won countless victories in the
early 1970s – including at 24 Hours of
Le Mans, where it held the distance
record for 39 years.
The side profile is t ypically Porsche.
From this angle, every muscle appears
flexed – like a predator ready to pounce.
The roof line slopes distinctively down
towards the rear, drawing the customary
sports car contour that promises
excellent aerodynamics. Our designers
call it the Porsche flyline.
A visual highlight of the Macan is the
sideblades. Not only do they set a sport y
accent, their design pays homage to the
918 Spyder. They make the proportions
of the doors appear narrower and the
flanks seem much sleeker and sportier.
Sideblades are available with a Lava
Black paint finish, in the exterior colour
of the vehicle or – for a particularly
exclusive statement – in carbon.
In sizes of up to 21 inches, the wheels of
the Macan are equally eye- catching. The
particular Macan model that you see
before you is recognisable by its brake
calipers: silver- coloured on the S variants
and red on the Turbo. Typically Porsche.

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 if you take life as it comes, you can still be prepared.
Safety.
Bi-Xenon main headlights including
Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS).
The Bi-Xenon main headlights feature
automatic and dynamic range control,
which provides uniform illumination of the
road whether dipped or main beam is
selected. The dynamic cornering light
function swivels the headlights towards
the inside of a bend based on the
steering angle and road speed. The
static cornering lights activate the
auxiliary headlights in order to illuminate
more of the road at tight bends and
turns. Put simply, a greater part of the
road ahead is illuminated the moment
you enter a bend. In addition, PDLS adjusts the range of
the dipped beams at higher speeds. An
adverse weather function reduces the
effect of reflection phenomena in poor
visibility conditions.
Standard in the Macan
Turbo. Optional for
all other Macan models.
Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus
(P D L S+).
Optional PDLS+ offers t wo additional
functions. The dynamic main beam
feature adapts the headlight range to
oncoming traffic and to traffic in front.
Whenever you approach an intersection,
the Intersection Assistant activates the
static cornering lights on the left and right to widen the light cone. This
provides better illumination in the area
immediately around the vehicle, and you
see what ’s going on around you all the
sooner.
Optional for all Macan models.
Daytime running lights.
Daytime running lights are standard on all
models. On cars with halogen headlights,
this function is implemented by the inner
headlight. On cars with Bi-Xenon main
headlights, the stunning light source is
four LED spotlights in each headlight. The
benefit is clear. If other road users can
see you bet ter, day time driving becomes
a safer experience.
Taillights.
The three-dimensional design of the LED
taillights pays homage to the 918 Spyder
super sports car and lends an impressive
appearance of depth. At the same time,
they are especially responsive and
powerful – and that means added safet y.
In the event of panic braking, the
adaptive LED brake lights begin to
pulsate, alerting following traffic more
quickly to a critical situation. The third
brake light is integrated into the roof
spoiler.

Environment70 | Instinct
Fuel system.
In the petrol models, even the emissions
of the fuel system itself are minimised
for the protection of the environment.
Evaporative emissions are significantly
reduced by the returnless supply system.
Vapour-carrying lines are made from
multi-layered plastic, while a high- capacit y
active carbon filter and the fuel tank also
feature a multi-layered construction in
order to make every thing as impermeable
as possible.
Noise reduction.
The characteristic Porsche sound may
drive our passion, but acoustics is yet
another area in which we continuously
strive for optimisation.
Stiff components and light weight,
temperature-stable materials minimise
play bet ween parts and therefore
mechanical noise. Voluminous silencers
and air induction systems reduce noise
levels further – and that ’s over the
course of the entire service life. In collaboration with t yre manufacturers,
we are managing to reduce the rolling
noise of t yres, while aerodynamic
refinements keep wind noise as low as
possible. What ’s left? The Porsche sound,
pure and simple.
Servicing.
Long-life and hard-wearing materials
reduce maintenance items to a minimum.
At the time of an oil filter change, for
example, only the recycling-friendly
paper insert needs to be exchanged and
not the entire housing.
Moving parts are adjusted automatically,
e.g. by hydraulic valve clearance
compensation.
The use of individual ignition coils in
petrol engines makes the entire ignition
system, except for the spark plugs, wear-
and maintenance-free. Advantage for
you? If it doesn’t need replacing, it
doesn’t need to be disposed of. Not only
does this support the responsible
handling of resources and a caring
at titude towards the environment, it
saves you time and money.
The maintenance intervals of the Macan
models nevertheless depend on various
factors, including the local fuel grade.
For exact information, please refer to the
price list published in your country or
consult your Porsche Centre.
Materials and recycling.
A Porsche is a source of long-lasting
pleasure for our customers and a
refreshing change for their environment.
This Porsche principle can be summed
up in one word: sustainability.
Here’s just one example: the exhaust
system of the Macan models is made
from extremely corrosion-resistant
stainless steel – and purposefully
manufactured on the principles of
lightweight construction. In addition, our cars are free from CFCs and parts
manufactured with the use of CFCs. In
all, they are over 95
% recoverable.
Naturally, all statutory recycling
requirements are fulfilled. The labelling of
materials facilitates future sorting for
excellent recycling.
On the subject of recycling, there is
plent y of time before it is even needed.
Two -thirds of all Porsche cars ever built
are still being driven today. What bet ter
way to conserve resources?

Assistance systems96 | MultitaskingAssistance systemsMultitasking | 97
Adaptive cruise control
Eyes open without the running commentary –
if only every passenger were like that.
Assistance systems.
Adaptive cruise control including
Porsche Active Safe (PAS).
This system regulates the speed of your
vehicle in line with the speed of the
vehicle in front and brakes your vehicle
automatically – if necessary, even down
to a halt. As soon as the road ahead
clears, your vehicle will accelerate back
up to the cruising speed originally set.
Selectable cruising speeds range from
30 to 210 km/ h. If required, your car can
even brake itself to a complete stop
behind the vehicle in front in situations
such as congested traffic. To pull away
again, all it takes is for the driver to give
a brief start command using the control
lever or accelerator pedal.
Integrated Porsche Active Safe (PAS) is
designed to detect whether you are
approaching the vehicle in front too
quickly. In this event, you will be
prompted to take the necessary action by an audible and visual warning as well
as a jolt of the brakes. The system may
even boost brake pressure as the
situation demands, even to the point of
the maximum braking force that the
system is able to provide.
Optional for all Macan models.
Lane Change Assist.
Lane Change Assist monitors the areas
to the rear of the vehicle and the blind
spots on either side. Bet ween 30 and
250 km/ h, the system issues a visual
warning signal in the exterior mirrors
whenever a vehicle rapidly approaches
your vehicle from
behind or enters one of
your blind spots. In this way, Lane
Change Assist improves comfort and
safet y, particularly on motorways.
However, the system does not actively
intervene to control the vehicle and can
be deactivated at any time.
Optional for all Macan models.
Lane Keeping Assist.
Lane Keeping Assist uses a camera
installed in the front end to detect divider
line markings on the road. If the car
threatens to cross one of the lines, the
system steers the vehicle back into
the
centre of the lane. This correction is
accompanied by a soft steering pulse. Of
course, you are able to override the
system at any time.
The function may be deactivated in
specific conditions, e.g. bad weather.
Optional for all Macan models.
Lane Departure Warning.
A camera inside the rear-view mirror ca -
sing monitors the road surface in front of
the vehicle. When activated, the system
will sound a warning tone whenever you
steer towards a divider line marking and
threaten to leave the current lane without
indicating.

Fortunately, intensity allows for further expansion.
Panoramic roof system.
The panoramic roof system is a good
square metre in size and comprises
t wo large glass panels. Even when
closed, it lives up to its name, let ting you
enjoy a generous panoramic view – but
keeping you well protected from the
elements at the same time. In addition,
the front portion slides open or tilts to a
raised position. A roll-up blind shields you
from strong sunlight.
Optional for all Macan models.
Roof rails.
These high-quality roof rails are available
in aluminium or with a black painted
finish. They blend harmoniously into the
vehicle’s dynamic design. Roof rails are a
prerequisite for installation of the
optional roof transport system and are
available as a factory-fit ted option only.
Optional for all Macan models.
Roof transport system.
In conjunction with the optional roof rails,
this set of lockable roof bars is
compatible with all Porsche roof
attachment modules. The load-bearing
parts in aluminium are designed to carry
a maximum load of 100 kg. A range of
aftermarket attachment modules is
available from Porsche Tequipment.
Optional for all Macan models.
Towbar system.
The ball head of this electrically
extending towbar system disappears
under the rear at the push of a but ton
when out of use. A 13-pole socket is also
included. The towbar is approved for a
substantial braked trailer load of 2,400 kg
and 750 kg for unbraked trailers. A
noseweight of 96 kg is supported. As
standard, the vehicle comes ready-
equipped with all the necessary
preparations.
Optional for all Macan models.
