2015 PORSCHE MACAN display

Macan design22 | Life, intensified
True beauty is more than just skin deep.

Interior design.
As a creator of sports cars, we know
that driver and car must form a single
entit y. As such, you do not simply sit in
the Macan – the ergonomic architecture
integrates you into the vehicle. The three-
dimensional arrangement of the controls
lends the interior a cockpit-st yle layout.
In t ypical Macan fashion, the sport y front
seats convey a sense of height above the
road without any loss of intimacy with it.
The essentials are seen at a glance.
The instrument panel has a three-tube
design. Three tubes – just like in a
classic sports car. Also in view is the centrally positioned rev counter. To the
right is the 4.8-inch colour screen, which,
among other things, displays information
from the on-board computer.

Thanks to the ascending centre console
– a t ypical feature of a sports car – you
don’t have very far to reach from the
steering wheel to the PDK gear selector
and most important vehicle functions.
The ignition lock, as ever, is on the left
– typically Porsche.

Macan S34 | Life, intensified
Pace car for the senses.

Macan S.
The ‘S’ principle has long been a tradition
as far as Porsche cars are concerned.
It represents an especially sport y inter -
pretation of a particular idea. It ’s a
promise of spine-tingling thrills and spills
– and omits any thing superfluous to the
spirit of sporty driving.
High performance, on the other hand,
is something that the Macan S would
never do without. Its 3.0-litre twin-turbo
V6 engine generates 250 kW (340 hp)
and helps it to sprint from 0 to 100 km/ h
in only 5.4 seconds. Top speed is
254 km/ h. Figures to raise the hairs on
the neck of any sports car enthusiast. The Macan S is equipped with 18-inch
Macan S wheels. Its brake calipers are
silver-coloured. This high-performance
athlete is also recognisable by the
‘Macan S’ logo on the rear hatch – and
on the door sill guards in aluminium.
Inside, the sport y theme is epitomised by
the rev counter with silver- coloured dial
face. The CDR Plus audio system
integrated as standard features a high-
resolution 7-inch colour touchscreen
offering intuitive ease of use.
The sport y spirit can be intensified even
further with a range of options such as
the Sport Chrono Package. It includes the SPORT PLUS but ton, one press of
which tunes the engine for an even
sharper response. The chassis and
transmission also adapt their se-tup to
SPORT PLUS mode. The package
additionally comprises a stopwatch and
the Launch Control function for the
fastest possible acceleration from a
standing start, e.g. on a racetrack.
Another option is Porsche
Communication Management (PCM). In
this model, it is supplemented by a
performance display showing lap times
and other essential driving stats.

encounter with intensity.

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.

The wheel was invented 5,000 years ago.
Seems only now it’s hitting the big time.
Mixed tyres.
As with any genuine sports car, the
Macan is equipped with wider t yres at
the rear – just like the 911. The visual
impact is not the only effect: the larger
footprint at the rear improves both
stabilit y and traction and also enhances
agilit y for intensified contact with the
road.
Wheels.
For the wheels, too, every thing revolves
around sport y performance – and st yle.
Accordingly, the Macan serves up some
impressive numbers: the wheels look
exceptionally large, with optional sizes up
to 21 inches.
What they all have in common is their
aluminium construction, which saves weight and increases agilit y. That ’s
particularly true of the forged 21-inch
wheels.
The Macan S and Macan S Diesel

are equipped, as standard, with 18-inch
Macan S wheels. The Macan Turbo is
fit ted with 19-inch Macan Turbo wheels

as standard.
Ty r e s .
All t yres have been optimised for driving
performance, handling, rolling resistance
and weight. The rubber compound, tread
pat tern and the carcass architecture have
been designed for the least rolling
resistance possible in order to reduce
fuel consumption.
Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPM).
Tyre Pressure Monitoring sends warnings
to the on-board computer’s display
screen in the event of low t yre pressure
or a gradual or sudden loss of pressure.
The multifunction display in the
instrument cluster gives you a quick and
convenient way to check your t yre
pressures.

The use of exquisite materials such as
leather brings exclusivit y to ordinary life.
The standard specification includes a
leather steering wheel rim and seat
centres in Alcantara – in the Macan Turbo,
the adaptive Sports seats with 18-way
adjustment are completely upholstered
in leather. On request, you can refine
even more interior features of your
Macan with leather, wood, carbon or
aluminium.
