REVIEW: The Porsche Macan T has arrived to squeeze in between the base Macan and the V6-powered Macan S. We find out if it's worth considering
, which probably isn’t what a Porsche owner wants to hear. It’s a good engine, no doubt, refined and responsive enough and a good match for the seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox, yet the engine is hardly raucous in the hatchback and it certainly isn’t in this larger, heavier SUV. It’s an impossibility, but Porsche should try the’s engine if it really wanted to go down the strong and characterful hot-hatch engine route...
It has been a while since I drove a four-cylinder Macan, admittedly, yet my test route didn’t reveal a substantial difference between the standard car and the T, and it’s all largely as I remember it. The steering in particular retains lots of feel and feedback, while the ride-and-handling balance is well judged for a car of this type to involve you in the drive rather than excite you by it.
Whisper it, but this seemingly ever-young and ever-popular car is also starting to feel a little old. That’s because it is: the ‘second-generation’ Macan of 2018 was really only a substantial refresh of the 2014 original, and this shared architecture wasn’t fresh out of the box then, either. The cabin architecture and design in particular feel quite staid, T or not with T, and Android Auto inexplicably remains absent.
The T costs just £1000 less than the V6-powered Macan S, a night-and-day upgrade in terms of power, performance and the way that it involves and excites you as a driver. It would be far better offered as an optional package on the base Macan, bundling together some of the desirable bits that would else be options, likeAs it is, the inevitable ‘just pay the extra grand and buy the Macan S’ statements will be fired the way of the Macan T, and fairly so.
