It’s a very rounded combination – an SUV that gives nothing away to an exec saloon in terms of performance and driving experience

Business Car Manager Verdict

The Macan Diesel S is a car of multiple talents, adding refinement and 40+mpg economy to the Porsche USPs of desirability, high performance and a keen driving experience.

Add in elegant styling and the high end finish to the Macan’s well-made interior and it’s not difficult to see why Porsche has already sold out of UK cars for this year. 

In our opinion, if you’re in the lucky position of ordering a Porsche Macan, we believe it is worth the wait as it’s the best sporty compact SUV on sale.
