The adage of "if it ain't broken; don't fix it" surely applies to the Macan.
With the headlong rush into BEVs, Porsche are right to hold off any major change to the Macan [their biggest selling model?] until the future of motive power is clearly defined. With the FL Macan Porsche are playing it safe for sure as the totally new model will probably not emerge until the mid-20s for this reason.

The light facelift / changes is exactly what Porsche always do, no-one should be surprised by that.
The limited options in engines and specs is almost certainly WLTP driven, so that is unusual, but a one off.

Just seen a shot of the new Taycan dash......(maybe!)
Looks to be along the lines of the Audi MMI (which we quite like!)

+1. And what first struck me is, unlike some recent entries, we have a visually ergonomic shape that corresponds with the human vision span - like widescreen cinema.

PR update from Porsche.
Nothing new but perhaps some clues as to Connect and Assistance options.

+1. But it needs bigger wheels than those in the photo! Both Mamba & Miami are welcome additions to the colour choice.Semerka wrote: ↑Thu Aug 30, 2018 10:47 amThat's a gorgeous colour, would be seriously tempted if I was in the market for a new Macan.Dandock wrote: ↑Thu Aug 30, 2018 10:12 am PR update from Porsche.
