I fitted these a few months ago and they're fine, early to say how long they'll last but the P zeros did about 23 k miles.

Are they available in N-rated for the Macan?
Not sure TBH. Pretty sure they will depending on size.
I am pretty confident that when Porsche if ever updates the Latitude Sport 3 N approval for the Macan it will be for Michelins Pilot Sport SUV abut it has not happened yet and not the 4S which is a car tyre
The Latitude Sport 3 has been updated to N2, I'm just about to swop my 21" Continentals for a set. The Continentals win many awards, but I found the fronts wore twice as quick as the rears only 13K out of them.

What are the rules with the N rated tyres. Mine are P Zeros N0's. If I ever put other N series tyres on the car wouldn't that invalidate the warranty?

How can it negate my warranty, it has identical specifications to the N0 and approved by Porsche. N2 is just the latest generation and I would hope an improvement over the N0.

Just had a complete new set fitted, max tread depth 8mm on front and 7.5 mm on rear. That's for a 21" rim and cost £1200 ( but cash back offer with Michelin £100) will bring that down to £1100

Just put in a call to your OPC for your warranty peace of mind, if in doubt.

I don't have any doubts at all, I checked tyre measurements on currant Cayennes but they don't correspond with Macan so it seems that the tyres (N2) are exclusive to the Macan. It would appear that all the latest GTI's are coming out from the factory with Pirelli P Zero's so no chance of comparing with my MY2020 Turbo, but I will always prefer Michelin and date of manufacture on my new set are all in the current year 2023 and French made, very pleased so far.
