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.

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?

How does the Porsche sound fare in the
rock, pop and classical categories?
CDR Plus audio system.
The CDR Plus audio system is equipped
with a high-resolution 7-inch colour
touchscreen, giving you quick and easy
access to the most important functions
and menus.
The system has 11 loudspeakers and
delivers a total output of 235 wat ts. An
analogue t win tuner ensures an extensive
selection of radio broadcasts.
A CD/ DVD drive supports audio playback
of MP3 files and audio/video DVDs, while
a USB connection enables various iPod
®
and iPhone
® models to be connected.
MP3 players and USB memory sticks
containing MP3 tracks can also be
plugged in and audio played over the in- car system. The touchscreen is
capable of displaying album cover art.
Connected USB devices can be
controlled directly from CDR Plus or the
multifunction buttons on the steering
wheel. An AUX interface enables you to
connect additional external audio
sources, in which case functions are
controlled directly from the external
device.
An integrated six- disc CD autochanger
and mobile phone preparation for
connecting to Bluetooth
® mobile phones
that support the Handsfree Profile (HFP)
are available as an option.
Standard in the Macan S and
Macan S Diesel.
BOSE® Surround Sound System.
The BOSE® Surround Sound System is
compatible with Porsche Communication
Management (PCM) as well as the CDR
Plus audio system.
The system has been optimally tuned for
the models in the Macan range. A total of
14 loudspeakers, including an active
subwoofer and centre speaker, and nine
amplifier channels with a total output of
545 wat ts deliver an impressive sound
experience.
In combination with Porsche
Communication Management (PCM), the
BOSE
® Surround Sound System enables
audio playback of DVDs and is thus able
to make full use of the impressive sound spectrum of 5.1 digital recordings. Of
course, you can still play other audio
sources, such as CDs or MP3 players, in
stereo or, at the push of a but ton, in one
of the available virtual surround modes.
Noise compensation technology uses a
microphone to continuously measure the
ambient noise inside the vehicle and
adapts music playback automatically so
that a consistent sound is maintained at
all times.
Standard in the Macan
Turbo. Optional for
all other Macan models.

Luggage compartment.
The large luggage compartment of the
Macan models is prepared for a wide
variet y of uses and boasts a capacit y of
500 litres. A storage compartment to the
side offers additional space.
The rear bench seat folds down with a
ratio of 40 : 20 : 40. With the seats fully
folded, the available capacity increases
to 1,500 litres.
To protect against sunlight and offer
additional privacy, the luggage
compartment is equipped with a removable luggage compartment cover.
The optional ski bag can also be
removed. It can be used for carrying ski
equipment outside the vehicle or simply
taken out for cleaning. Practical and
hygienic in equal measure.
For loading convenience, the optional air
suspension enables you to lower the rear
end of the vehicle using a but ton in the
luggage compartment.
The rear hatch features a heated and
tinted glass panel. The hatch opens

The loadspace management system
enables you to partition the luggage
compartment to suit your needs. Items
are held in place by a rail system with
slide-adjustable telescopic rod, a strap
roller and four variable lashing eyelets.
The reversible mat protects against dirt
and helps to prevent luggage
