2015 PORSCHE MACAN height

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 principle28 | Life, intensified
For fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and efficiency class, please refer to pages 126–127.
Fitted as standard, 7-speed Porsche
Doppelkupplung (PDK) lets you experience
motorspor t-st yle gear changes, which
take place in milliseconds and with no
interruption in the flow of power. The
system also features a coasting mode,
which reduces fuel consumption and
emissions where the driving situation
allows. To this end, the auto start /stop
function, intelligent thermal management
and many more efficiency-enhancing
measures make a decisive contribution.
The steel spring suspension, fit ted as
standard, helps to provide the driving
precision and performance t ypical of any
Porsche. As an option (standard in the
Macan Turbo), it can be upgraded to
include optional Porsche Active
Suspension Management (PASM). At the
push of a but ton, the shock absorbers
respond even more precisely to the
current driving st yle. An air suspension is
available for even greater dynamic
performance and a high level of ride
comfort. With this suspension, the Macan
sits 15 mm lower. The three-position
ride-height adjustment capability enables you to adapt it optimally to the driving
situation.
Optional Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus
(PT V Plus) lets you feel the Macan
principle in every corner – and in a
particularly intense way. Operating in
conjunction with an electronically
controlled rear differential lock, the
system works by varying the torque
distribution to the rear wheels and
thereby significantly further improves
handling and steering precision. It also
increases the agilit y of the car when it
attacks the corner.
Naturally, active safet y also follows the
Macan principle – and, in doing so, fulfils
the requirements of a sports car.
Integrated as standard, Porsche Stability
Management (PSM) helps to ensure
stabilit y at the limits of sport y
performance. Typically Porsche, the
brakes set standards for deceleration.
Optional driver assistance systems
relieve your workload so that you can
have more fun. Adaptive cruise control including Porsche Active Safe (PAS)
regulates the speed of your vehicle in
line with the speed of the vehicle in
front. Lane Change Assist monitors your
blind spots, while Lane Keeping Assist
monitors your car’s distance to divider
line markings on the road.
Intensive living can also be measured in
bits and by tes, with Porsche Car
Connect for instance. Available as an
option, our comprehensive packages of
remote and PV TS (Porsche Vehicle
Tracking System) services provide you
with all the important information about
your Macan – not only when you’re
behind the wheel. Other digital
functionalities of the Macan include the
abilit y to log into social net works or
search for a Point of Interest and then
select it directly as your navigation
destination. Being highly net worked –
that, too, can be the principle of a
s p o r t s c a r.
So you see: for us, staying true to one’s
principles is essential. The principle of
power above all.

Weight saving.
Those who enjoy life are bound to
be more light-hearted than others.
The axles of the Macan models are
characterised by purposeful lightweight
construction with the use of lighter,
more stable materials. The results are
excellent driving dynamics, a high degree
of comfort and low fuel consumption.
Suspension tuning.
The suspension is tuned for sport y per -
formance by default – t ypically Porsche.
With a series of optional systems ranging
from uncompromisingly sporty to sporty-
comfortable, you can adapt the suspen -
sion tuning of the Macan perfectly to
your needs.
Air suspension.
For a high level of comfort and
tremendous dynamic performance, you
have the option of an air suspension
including PASM. With this set-up, the car
is 15 mm lower than with the steel spring
suspension. The effect? Improved
aerodynamics. The self-levelling function
helps to keep the ride height constant.
A ride-height adjustment capability
enables you to switch the ground
clearance to three levels: Terrain Level,
Normal Level and Low Level. At Terrain
Level, the car is 40 mm above Normal
Level; at Low Level, 10 mm below it.
Loading Level is especially practical:
from Normal Level, the rear end of the
body lowers 40 mm to make it easier
to load the car. This function is operated
by means of a but ton in the luggage
compartment.
Optional for all Macan models.
Steel spring suspension.
The steel spring suspension is
standard in all Macan models. Not only
does
it fulfil exacting requirements
for performance and driving pleasure,
it contributes to enhanced driving
dynamics, lower fuel consumption and
increased ride comfort.
The steel spring suspension in the
Macan Turbo is additionally equipped
with Porsche Active Suspension
Management (PASM).
Porsche Active Suspension
Management (PASM).
PASM is an electronic damping control
system. It actively and continuously
adjusts damping force based on current
road conditions and driving st yle. When a car is driven off-road or
assertively in a manner that demands
hard acceleration and braking, the forces
acting on the car will normally induce
perceptible body movements. PASM
intervenes in these situations to reduce
them. You can select from three modes:
‘Comfort ’, ‘SPORT’ and ‘SPORT PLUS’.
PASM is permanently active, adapting
automatically to the current driving
situation with the aim of increasing
driving stability and comfort.
Standard in Macan
Turbo. Optional for all
other Macan models.
How should such intensity be brought to the road?
Our engineers have some specific ideas.

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
