Tested: 2022 Porsche Macan S inherits 375 horsepower:
. Inside, the button-filled center console has been swapped out for a new flush, haptic panel that requires a firm touch. Though not as tactile as its predecessor's metallic switches and toggles, the surface does help simplify the interior. However, the plastic panel will inevitably be smudged with fingerprints—bring wipes.
The view from the driver's seat is classic Porsche, with a large, centrally positioned analog tachometer with a speedometer next to it, just like you'd find in a 50-year-old 911. In the center console, there's Porsche's latest 10.9-inch multimedia touchscreen equipped with now-standard wireless Apple CarPlay.LOWS: Still somewhat small for a compact SUV, updated interior inundated with touch-sensitive controls.
There's virtually nothing dull about how the Macan S drives. The steering enjoys an intuitive connection between the driver's palms and the road surface below. Acceleration from the twin-turbo V-6 is brisk, turbo lag is minimal, and it snarls pleasingly. A strong shove is available throughout the rev range, as 383 lb-ft of torque are available from 1850 to 5000 rpm.
A top-of-the-line GTS starts at $81,250, which makes the Macan S's base price of $66,750 relatively attractive; a modest-for-Porsche list of options upped our example's tally to $73,040. And while the new Macan S is $5200 more than last year's model, don't forget about the increase in standard equipment and the 27 extra horsepower. The Macan S might be a middle child, but drive one and it'll get your attention.
