2015 PORSCHE MACAN change time

Transmission50 | Dynamics
The love of the road
inspires some remarkably intense relationships.

Transmission.
Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK).
7-speed PDK, fit ted as standard in the
Macan models and featuring both a
manual and an automatic mode, offers
extremely fast gear changes with no
interruption in the flow of power – as well
as excellent driving dynamics and a high
degree of efficiency.
The principle of PDK is that, whenever a
particular gear is engaged, the next gear
is already preselected. As a result, gear
changes take place within milliseconds.
Automatic mode is optimised for fuel
economy. This means that PDK is able to
offer not only a sport y, agile driving feel,
but also increased efficiency. Would you rather change gear manually?

You can do this using the t wo gearshift
paddles on the multifunction sports
steering wheel, fit ted as standard, or
using the PDK gear selector.
In conjunction with the optional Sport
Chrono Package, the shift times of PDK
become even shorter, the gear changes
even sportier. Additional gearshift
strategies are also available – for
uncompromising driving pleasure.
Porsche Traction Management (PTM).
The tremendous dynamic performance
of the Macan is thanks in part to the
Porsche Traction Management (PTM)
active all-wheel drive system. It comprises an electronic and map-controlled

multi-plate clutch, the automatic brake
differential (ABD) and anti-slip regulation
(ASR). The electronically controlled multi-
plate clutch regulates the distribution of
drive force bet ween the rear axle and
the front axle. Driving conditions are
constantly monitored to enable a precise
and lightning-quick response to a variet y
of situations.
Sensors continuously check, among
other variables, the rotation speeds of all
four wheels, the longitudinal and lateral
acceleration of the vehicle, and the
steering angle. If, for example, the rear
wheels threaten to spin under
acceleration, a greater proportion of drive force is distributed to the front by a
more powerful engagement of the multi-
plate clutch. In addition, ASR reduces
wheel slip. In corners, the drive force
sent to the front wheels is regulated for
optimum lateral stability.
In short, PTM transfers the incredible
sportiness of the Macan to the road.
Behind the wheel, you can feel what it ’s
like to be driving a genuine sports car:
traction, driving safety, outstanding
steering behaviour, superior handling
and, of course, the excellent dynamics
t ypical of any Porsche.

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.

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?

2 emissions and efficiency class, please refer to pages 126–127.

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.

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.
