The 2020 Porsche Macan GTS small performance crossover slots under the Macan Turbo for performance without as high as a price.

Porsche's Macan Turbo returns for 2020 with a downsized engine and more power.

The Porsche Macan will be turned into an electric car when it undergoes a redesign early next decade. Porsche made the confirmation on Tuesday and also reiterated its stance that 50 percent of its lineup could be made up of cars running solely on electricity by as early as 2025...

The corners are blind. An oncoming car, bus, or bicyclist could await on the other side. Please don’t be a bus. The lane is narrow. The SUV I’m in takes up almost all of it. There is barely any shoulder, and sometimes a guardrail sits right on the lane line and threatens to add an...

Like the Cayenne before it, the Macan has been a huge hit for Porsche. It’s the marque’s most popular model, with more than 97,000 delivered in 2017 alone. Having been introduced for 2015, the Macan is now at the midway point in its life cycle, and to keep sales brimming Porsche has...

As capable as the Cayenne and Macan are, the Porsche SUVs will never get track-focused GT variants like their sports car siblings. That’s the word of Porsche engineer Andreas Preuninger, who leads development of the automaker’s GT sports cars like the 911 GT3 and Cayman GT4. Speaking...

Porsche’s Macan is currently the performance leader in the compact SUV segment. Whether you’re driving the base 4-cylinder model or the range-topping twin-turbocharged V-6 Turbo, we bet there’ll be a huge grin on your face. However, with fellow German firms BMW and Mercedes-Benz...

The 2017 Porsche Macan GTS is the compact SUV the automaker always set out to build, according to Porsche. Based on the Audi Q5, the Macan GTS is, in our opinion, the best handling crossover on the planet, but how does it get that way? Let's dissect how a sports car maker turns an SUV into a...

Porsche's strategy for old GTS models had been magnificent in its mission: Even if buyers couldn’t afford faster cars, there was still a race to empty whatever they had left in their wallets.

The Macan has been a roaring success for Porsche, with the small SUV rocketing to the top of the sales chart in only its first full year on the market. Porsche sold more than 80,000 Macans last year globally, enough to put it ahead of the automaker’s next best-seller, the Cayenne, which...

Porsche is expanding its Macan lineup for 2017 with the Goldilocks GTS, which was unveiled today at the 2015 Tokyo Motor Show. Porsche’s GTS models are aimed at buyers seeking something sportier than the S-badged cars but aren’t quite ready to hop into high-performance Turbo versions...

So, you think Porsche only makes sports cars? What, did you stop reading in 2003? That's when Porsche came out with its first SUV, the Cayenne. And without the Cayenne, we might not have today's 911s and Caymans and Boxsters. At all. Porsche's sold so many Cayennes, it's building a follow-up act, a...

The Chinese automotive landscape is one that is still in the early evolution stages, but it's growing strongly. Still, it's plagued a bit by a major problem that pops up albeit with less frequency than in years past. We're talking about design plagiarism, where a Chinese automaker simply copies an...

Chinese automakers are notorious for copying the designs of more established firms, and though there have been significant gains made in the areas of quality and unique design in China's nascent auto industry in recent years there are still a number of firms whose design teams appear to have a...

Like the Mercedes-Benz GLA45 AMG, the Porsche Macan is a new breed of crossover that more closely resembles the hot hatch than anything else. Call it a tall, fast wagon, we don’t really care. What it is is amazing. No, really, it is. As Marty Padgett wrote in our first drive review...

It’s been known for some time that a diesel-powered Macan would eventually be offered in the U.S., but now we have official confirmation from the German sports car manufacturer. Speaking with Automotive News (subscription required), Porsche Cars North America’s vice president of...

Porsche already has three plug-in hybrids in its lineup, the limited edition 918 Spyder as well as the Cayenne and Panamera S E-Hybrid models, but the sports car manufacturer won’t be stopping there. This is because Porsche sees vehicle electrification as a crucial element of its...

Porsche’s first four-cylinder production car since the 968 bowed out of the market in 1995 has arrived in the form of the 2015 Macan crossover. While the stylish sport ute is offered exclusively with turbocharged V-6 engines in the U.S. (Macan S, Macan Turbo and later Macan S Diesel)...

It's been ten years already, but if you still haven't absorbed the reality of a Porsche SUV, brace yourselves. There's a second one--and it's probably the best crossover SUV we've driven. Let us first-drive you into reality with the 2015 Porsche Macan Turbo, the vehicle that will cement Porsche's...
