Quite the opposite
Not how I read it. They say there are faster and cheaper options and its felling its age and the haptic buttons aren’t great. Not saying I agree with them but I would say that review was damning with faint praise

Another review that isn’t exactly glowing with praise. I has a “been here before” vibe to it.

Don't like the look of this change......

Not a roof rail on any of these tested Macans.
Note how very dark the interior shots are without the benefit of a panoramic roof on any of them.

They seem to like torque vectoring which a lot on here say is a waste of time!! Certainly, they are not keen on interior and make the point others now equal the performance which was probably not true when the original Turbo PP came out. However, they give it 4.5 out of 5 probably because cars like BMW X4M do not ride or handle anything like half as well.

He says "S" now a sweet spot of range, again likes the ride handling above its more spacious and cheaper but steeper depreciating competitors. Certainly, though tested or Porsche supplied with an "S" with all the extras, air, torque vectoring and sports chrono plus 21 wheels
