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.

At the rear, the classic Porsche sports
car design reveals itself: slender at the
top, widening into broad shoulders above
the rear wheels – a homage to the 911.
The st yling of the rear hatch gives the
rear end a particularly harmonious look.
For convenience, the rear hatch on all
Macan models is equipped with an
automatic powerlift function. The narrow
LED taillights have three-dimensional
proportions, which gives them an
extraordinary appearance of depth – and
captures your at tention. The overall
effect is to make the Macan look low,
wide and thus intimate with the road –
like any genuine Porsche. After all, a
muscle-toned body is meant to be
admired from the rear as well as the
front.
Of course, our engineers took great care
to ensure that the interior of the Macan is
just as intense with sports car
sensations.

Porsche Car Connect (PCC).
With our smartphone app, you can
access a range of data relating to
your car and control certain functions
remotely – any time, any place.
The app shows you where you parked
your car as well as your current location
so that you can quickly find the shortest
route back to your Porsche.
Open or closed? The app also gives you
real-time status information on the
doors, windows, bonnet and luggage
compartment. You can even lock your
vehicle remotely or fold the exterior
mirrors.
Your smartphone also gives you direct
access to what really mat ters: driving
stats. These include trip distance,
average speed, driving time in hours and
minutes or average fuel consumption. Of course, you are always kept informed
of mileage and fuel level as well.
A particularly practical function is the
abilit y to make a breakdown call at any
time from any location. In the event of an
accident, an emergency call is initiated
automatically so that assistance can be
swiftly arranged. The system also lets
you check the status of the alarm
system. As for securit y, the Porsche
Vehicle Tracking System (PV TS) enables
the remote location of a stolen vehicle
across most of Europe. PV TS Plus is
available as an option. It includes further
securit y measures, such as an additional
driver authentication key.
Porsche Car Connect (PCC) – state of the
art and up to date in more ways than one.
Optional for all Macan models.

As soon as you touch the door handle,
Porsche Entry & Drive checks the
encrypted access code on the key in
your pocket. Once the key is validated,
the door unlocks. The engine can then be
started and switched off using the
ignition key in the normal way.
To lock the vehicle, you simply touch the
sensor on the outside of the door handle.
Porsche Entry & Drive then locks the
vehicle and simultaneously activates the
engine immobiliser.
Optional for all Macan models.
Anti-theft protection.
All Macan models are equipped with an
engine immobiliser. It works in response
to an automatic exchange of data
bet ween the key and vehicle electronics.
On correct identification, the engine start
will be authorised by the engine
electronics.
Every Macan model is also protected by
an alarm system. On request, this can be
upgraded to include ultrasonic interior
surveillance. The security system
monitors all four doors, the bonnet, the
entire rear hatch, the interior, the ignition
and any trailer that you have hitched to
the car.
