Combined with the newly tuned PDK dual-clutch transmission and the optional Sport Chrono package, the Macan GTS sprints from zero to 100 km/h in 4.7 seconds. That makes it three tenths faster than before.
The top speed is 261 km/h. The maximum torque of 520 Newton meters (plus 20 Nm) is available from 1750 to 5000 rpm.
Adaptive air suspension as an option
The Gran Turismo Sport's suspension has been lowered by 15 millimeters and, in conjunction with the specially tuned Porsche Active Suspension Management damper control system, allows even more lateral dynamics. Adaptive air suspension with a further ten millimeters of lowering is available as an option.
Optionally, the deceleration values can be further improved by means of a Porsche Surface Coated Brake with tungsten carbide coating or a ceramic brake (PCCB). The brake calipers are red.
Specifically tuned exhaust system
The Porsche Macan GTS features a specifically tuned sports exhaust system and the Sport Design package with new front and rear fascia and distinctive side sills. The front apron and nose section feature the typical GTS black-painted elements.
The diffuser and the tailpipes of the exhaust system are painted dark. They are complemented by trim strips in high-gloss black. The LED main headlights and taillights are also darkened.
Leather interior and Bose system
The interior is characterized by Alcantara and brushed aluminum. The multifunction sports steering wheel with steering wheel rim in smooth leather and shift paddles is standard equipment, as are GTS sports seats with eight-way adjustment.
Leather upholstery in crimson or chalk, a Bose sound system and smartphone storage with inductive charging are other features.
The standard equipment also includes adaptive cruise control including traffic jam assist, park assist with rear-view camera and surround view, and an ionizer.
The new Macan GTS is available to order now. Prices in Switzerland start from 103 00 Swiss francs in country-specific equipment.
