Macan is Indonesian for €Tiger.€ In traditional Porsche proportions, the 2015 Macan is a beast like no other. Some Porsche lovers call it a CUV (Crossover Utility Vehicle). Wide-eyed consumers wanting the latest and greatest from one of the world’s most beloved sports car makers, call the Macan pure German power and fun! It’s ahead of schedule for market release and Porsche drivers are already itching to take a test drive.
A first drive in a Porsche Macan is comparable to the first experience with a Porsche altogether. It’s having found an infatuation for high-performance, high-revving, unique European craftsmanship all over again. This time, it’s with the knowledge and experience of a totally spellbound Porsche aficionado. That makes the 2015 Macan a stunning and desirable vehicle indeed!
The immediate impression of a first drive in a Porsche Macan is one of surprising comfort and intrigue. Your local Porsche dealer isn’t driving one because he or she sells them; there is genuine love for them as well. Porsches normally seat you inches off of the road and are front prominent. The Macan seats you like a sedan, but still puts you in position to feel the road, as well as, every slight shift in the engine. The Macan’s chassis are still Porsche-style and ultra-light, but they are configured to behave like a much heavier car. This model grabs the road like a tiger grabs its next meal. The traditional sloped hatch is replaced with a better balanced and more efficient contour which is still unmistakably €Porsche.€
After the first spin around the block, drivers will notice a much improved dual clutch system which flawlessly and smoothly transfers power. This is the best outcome of a turbocharged six cylinder 3.0 liter engine. If you are lucky enough to drive the Macan Turbo, you will experience truly remarkable seven-speed PDK gearbox performance and the extreme power of a force-fed 3.6 liter engine. These engines meet the strictest requirements for EU 6 consumption and emissions tests.
During a test run, drivers will notice ergonomic seating, an interior layout which reflects unmistakable Porsche design, digital and voice command control panels, and a nearly omniscient view of the road through carefully-designed windows. The Macan is definitely a powerful and sporty beast, but its a beast totally under the driver’s control.
If a first drive in the 2015 Macan takes place at night, certain exterior aesthetics will be noticeable. The body design is similar to competitive models, but still is absolutely unique on the market. This CUV is described by some people to be like certain Audi and Volkswagen models, but the comparison probably comes from the sheer disappointment of not having the opportunity to get behind the Macan’s steering wheel. All the sheet metal panel components are unique in the automobile world and catch passing light like no other. Speaking of lights, drivers of the Macan with notice the front standard Porsche headlight gear is replace with patented quad LED clusters and reflectors. Even from a distance, other drivers will know that there is a work of automotive genius approaching.
After countless years of wanting to get behind the wheel of a marvelous piece of German automotive engineering, now is the time to experience a Porsche which goes beyond the legend. Go to church and the mall in the minivan. Get work done on the weekends with the pickup. Discover the life you deserve in a 2015 Macan. Ask a Porsche dealer about how to start living!
