The new Macan is also characterised by a high level of everyday practicality, high-quality equipment and family-friendly spaciousness. Electrification has significantly increased the versatility of Porsche’s B-segment SUV. The luggage compartment volume of the entry-level Macan – a vehicle that is 4,784 mm long, 1,938 mm wide and 1,622 mm – has increased to up to 540 litres. When the rear bench seat is folded down, the volume is 1,348 litres. Luggage space is also available under the bonnet: with 84 litres, the frunk offers sufficient space for small luggage or, for example, the charging equipment. The frunk can be conveniently opened with a hand gesture. The automatic tailgate can be opened and closed with a foot gesture.
The Macan can also be optionally equipped with a towbar system, which can be unlocked electrically. Thanks to the maximum towing capacity of 2,000 kg and a towbar load of up to 80 kg, depending on the market, bigger towing jobs or installing a bicycle rack are no problem.
Sporty seating position and (new in the Macan) massage seat
The driver and front passenger sit up to 28 mm lower in the all-electric Macan compared to the previous model. Heated eight-way comfort seats are fitted as standard in the Macan, Macan 4 and Macan 4S, while adaptive 18-way sports seats and 14-way comfort seats are available for the Macan Turbo. Seat ventilation and a massage function are available as options. As standard, there is more storage space and there are more stowage options in the first row of seats than before, plus two USB-C quick-charging ports in the storage compartment in the centre console, as well as a 12-volt plug socket. A cooled smartphone tray enables wireless charging with 15 watts of charging power. In the rear of the Macan, passengers can sit comfortably on the 40:20:40 split rear bench seat with optional seat heating. The rear-seat position, which is lower than in the predecessor model, also offers people above 1.80 m tall sufficient headroom when sitting in the rear seats. The significantly increased wheelbase of 2,893 mm offers greater legroom for rear passengers. Two USB-C fast charging ports are also available in the rear.
New air-quality system protects health
The new air-quality system in the Macan offers occupants protection against particulate matter and pollutants from the air outside the car. The proven cabin air filter and GPS recirculation function are fitted as standard. The latter recognises tunnel entrances based on predictive navigation data and activates the recirculation function automatically ahead of time. This prevents odours and exhaust fumes from reaching the passenger compartment in the first place.
The sensor of the optional air quality system continuously measures the PM2.5 particulate matter pollution in the outside air and vehicle interior and displays the values in the PCM. The automatic recirculation mode, which is activated when limit values are exceeded, and the multiple recirculation runs through the fine dust filter clean the interior air and keep out polluted ambient air. The ioniser removes many germs and pollutants from the air in the automatic climate control before it flows into the vehicle’s interior. Allergy sufferers in particular benefit from the significantly more pleasant interior climate and improved air quality.
Surround sound with up to 1,470 watts
In addition to the Sound Package Plus with 10 speakers and 150 watts of total power as standard in the Macan, Macan 4 and Macan 4S, the now even more powerful sound systems from BOSE® and Burmester® ensure a first-class sound experience. With 14 speakers including a separate subwoofer, 14 amplifier channels and a total output of 710 watts, the BOSE® Surround Sound System offers powerful and dynamic sound in every seat. The Macan Turbo comes with the BOSE® system as standard. As the subwoofer is installed under the load compartment floor, the luggage compartment capacity of the top model in cargo mode is between 480 and 1,288 l.
The optional Burmester® 3D High-End Surround Sound System has 21 speakers with a two-way centre system and a 400-watt active subwoofer. The system delivers a total output of 1,470 watts. In addition to the familiar ‘Symmetrical’ listening setting, the Burmester® sound system also features the new driver-oriented ‘Driver’ configuration. This increases both the bass precision and the fidelity of voice and instrument playback for the driver. For the BOSE® and Burmester® systems, there is also the new Eco-Mode sound setting, in which the rear speakers and the subwoofer are not included in the playback. Depending on the volume and style of music, this can save energy.
