Porsche reveals 433bhp Macan Turbo Performance Package
Faster Porsche Macan Turbo Performance Package takes fast SUVs to a new level
Porsche has introduced a new Performance Package for the Macan Turbo. The powertrain upgrade boosts power from the 3.6-litre twin-turbo V6 from 394bhp to 433bhp, while torque rises by 50Nm to 600Nm.
Equipped with the Performance Package, Porsche claims the Macan Turbo can hit 62mph from a standstill in 4.4 seconds – 0.4 seconds faster than a standard Macan Turbo - and hit a top speed of 169mph, which is a 4mph increase. Depending on tyre size, Porsche claims combined fuel consumption of up to 30.1mpg.
The Performance Package also brings a newly developed and more powerful braking system to the Macan, its front discs are 30mm larger in diameter, while lowered suspension and controlled sports chassis also feature. Porsche also throws in the sports exhaust and Sport Chrono Pack as standard with the Performance Package.
The vast options list incudes 21-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights with Porsche Dynamic Lighting System, leather and Alcantara interior trim and carbon fibre detailing. Air suspension with a self-leveling function can also be added, which lowers the Macan by a further 10mm.
Priced from £68,073 a Macan Turbo equipped with the Performance Package costs around £5,500 more than a standard Turbo model. The car is on sale now with first deliveries will take place towards the end of the year.
