Мануал по porsche macan

Those who prefer to blaze a trail of their own don’t need to follow the lead of others. We’re thinking specifically about cars known as compact SUVs, characterized by five doors, five seats, all-wheel drive— and, of course, a higher sitting position. But aren’t they lacking a certain something?

Something that adds a little life, lets us enjoy a more intimate relationship with the road and delivers great driving pleasure. A concept that boasts plenty of space for hobbies, leisure and sport. But no room for compromise. Compact, concentrated and intensive, but still powerful. Practical, but never ordinary.

It is by these standards that we created the Macan, and saw it emerge with four distinct guises. Each one a sports car.

Each one unmistakable in its own segment. Each one a genuine Porsche—from design and driving dynamics to equipment specification. From our dynamic entrylevel model to the ultra sporty S variant and the striking GTS model to the Turbo, which sets performance standards in its vehicle class.

All Macan models were developed, tested and built in keeping with the Porsche philosophy. That’s where we take sporty style and performance from the racetrack and inject them into everyday driving. We make the Macan as efficient as possible—and of course, comfortable.

No efforts were spared. Our engineers achieved their development objective: the first sports car among compact SUVs.

The Macan—built for an intensive life in which the thirst for experience and

thrills are ever present, and in which new challenges are a permanent driving force. Built for a life that refuses to be cut-short by conventions and feels all the more authentic for it. Direct and intimate.

A sports car that gives us what we’re looking for, even in our everyday life: that feeling of being alive.

The Porsche Macan. Life, intensified.

SportDesign exterior mirrors, air-intake grilles painted in black (high-gloss) and side blades in black (high-gloss) also create stunning design accents.

The face of every model in the Macan range displays the dominant sporty genes of their hereditary line. Markers include the characteristic headlights recessed in the hood. The large, imposing air intakes of the front fascia are just waiting to inhale life. Every single second.

The hood stretches through to the wheel arches. This lends the front a broad and powerful presence and reminds us of the legendary Porsche 917, which won countless victories in the early 1970s— including at 24 Hours of Le Mans, where it held the distance record for 39 years.

The side profile is typically Porsche. From this angle, every muscle appears flexed—like a predator ready to pounce.

Life, intensified | Design

The roof line slopes distinctively down towards the rear, drawing the customary sports car contour that promises excellent aerodynamics. Our designers call it the Porsche flyline.

A visual highlight of the Macan is the side blades. Not only do they set a sporty accent, their design pays homage to the 918 Spyder. They make the proportions of the doors appear narrower and the flanks seem much sleeker and sportier. Side blades are available with a paint finish in matte black (Macan GTS only), Lava Black, in the exterior color of the vehicle or—for a particularly exclusive statement—in Carbon Fiber. A black (high-gloss) finish is reserved exclusively for the Turbo exterior package.

In sizes of up to 21 inches, the wheels of the Macan are equally eye-catching. The particular Macan model that you see before you is recognizable by its brake calipers: black on the Macan, silver-­ colored on the Macan S and red on

the GTS and Turbo. Typically Porsche.

The classic Porsche sports car design reveals itself at the rear: slender at the top, widening into broad shoulders above the rear wheels—a tribute to the 911. The styling of the rear hatch gives the rear end a particularly harmonious form. For convenience, the rear hatch on

all Macan models is equipped with an automatic powerlift function. The slimline LED taillights have three-dimensional proportions, which gives them an extraordinary appearance of depth— and captures your attention. The overall effect is to make the Macan look low, wide, and thus intimate with the road— like any genuine Porsche. After all, a muscle-toned body is meant to be admired from the rear as well as the front.

Of course, our engineers took great care to ensure that the interior of the Macan is just as intensive with sports car sensations.

As a creator of sports cars, we know that driver and car must form a single entity. As such, you do not simply sit in the Macan—the ergonomic architecture integrates you into the vehicle. The three-­ dimensional arrangement of the controls lends the interior a cockpit-style layout. In typical Macan fashion, the sporty front seats convey a sense of height above the road but a firm connection with it.

This feeling can be experienced in an even more exclusive way—with the new Turbo interior package1, available only for the Macan Turbo and in a choice of two contrasting colors: Rhodium Silver and Garnet Red. Eye-catching through and through, the black full-leather interior features Alcantara® on the seat centers, center console and door armrests.

The front and outer rear seat belts, the tachometer, the deviated stitching and the “Turbo” logo embroidered on the headrests are finished in the contrasting color. So it goes to show once again: the Macan Turbo not only looks outstanding on the road—it is the epitome of exceptional exclusivity.

Profound sportiness is a question of inner attitude, and this is answered emphatically by the new GTS interior package—reserved exclusively for the Macan GTS. Stitching and seat belts, the tachometer and the “GTS” logo in Carmine Red or Rhodium Silver lend the interior an even more dynamic tone. In addition, selected items upholstered, as standard, in Alcantara® highlight only too clearly the sporty genes that the Macan GTS has inherited.

The instrument panel, with its cluster of three dials, is always in view—just like in a classic sports car. In the center: the tachometer. To the right: the 4.8-inch color screen. This displays a range of useful information as well as a host of new functions introduced with the latest version of Porsche Communication Management (PCM) system.

Thanks to the ascending center console—a typical feature of a sports car—you don’t have very far to reach from the steering wheel to the PDK gear selector and most important vehicle functions. The ignition switch, as ever, is closest to the door—typically Porsche.

Life, intensified | Design

The multifunction three-spoke Sport steering wheel is inspired by the design of the 918 Spyder—and an established motorsport principle: keep your hands on the wheel. Two manually operated and ergonomically positioned gearshift paddles enable fast and sporty gear changes.

Sound and navigation systems follow the ergonomics philosophy. Equipped with a high-resolution color touchscreen, they offer intuitive ease of use.

With the versatile three-way split-folding rear bench seat—ratio 40:20:40— you can adapt the Macan perfectly to your needs.

Fitted as standard, the 7-speed Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK) lets you experience motorsport-style gear changes, which take place in milliseconds and with no interruption in the flow of power. The system also features a coasting mode, which reduces fuel consumption and emissions where the driving situation allows. To this end, the Auto Start Stop function, intelligent thermal management and many more efficiency-enhancing measures make a decisive contribution.

The steel spring suspension, standard, helps to provide the driving precision and performance typical of any Porsche. As an option (standard in the Macan Turbo and Macan GTS), it can be upgraded to include optional Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM). At the push of a button, the shock absorbers respond even more precisely to the current driving style. Air suspension, standard on the Macan GTS is available for even greater dynamic performance and a high level of ride comfort. With this suspension, the Macan GTS sits 10 mm lower than that of the Macan S. The three-position ride-height

adjustment capability enables you to adapt it optimally to the driving situation.

Optional Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus (PTV Plus) lets you feel the Macan principle in every corner—and in a particularly intense way. Operating in conjunction with an electronically controlled rear differential lock, the system works by varying the torque distribution to the rear wheels and thereby significantly further improves handling and steering precision. It also increases the agility of the car when it attacks the corner.

Naturally, active safety also follows the Macan principle—and, in doing so, fulfills the requirements of a sports car. Porsche Stability Management (PSM) helps to ensure stability at the limits of sporty performance. Typically Porsche, the brakes set standards for deceleration.

Optional driver assistance systems relieve your workload so that you can have more fun. Adaptive cruise control, including Porsche Active Safe (PAS), regulates the speed of your vehicle in line with the speed

of the vehicle in front. Lane Change Assist monitors your blind spots, while Lane Keep Assist tracks your car’s distance to divider line markings on the road.

Intensive living can also be measured in bits and bytes—for example, with the new version of Porsche Communication Management (PCM) system with optional navigation module. Additionally, the optional Porsche Connect Plus module offers wireless Internet access and online navigation, featuring real-time traffic information in the map view of the navigation system, (including Google® Earth and Google® Street View1). The module also comes with AppleCarPlay™, which you can use to access the apps of your iPhone® conveniently from the driver’s seat—using PCM or the optional voice control system.

So you see: being highly networked can also be the principle of a sports car. That’s because, for us, staying true to one’s principles is essential. The principle of power above all.

Must intensity really have any limits?

In the areas of design, performance, and exclusivity, we have at the very least redefined them.

The distinctly muscular front fascia, with the side airblades of the conspicuously large cooling air intakes, is found nowhere else but on the Macan Turbo. It’s a visual promise of thrilling performance. Bi-Xenon™ headlights with dynamic cornering lights provide optimal illumination of the road. These are supplemented by the stunning four-point LED daytime running lights.

The Macan Turbo also stands out thanks to its lower front spoiler, inspired by the 918 Spyder. The turn signals and position lights have been integrated in such a way that they appear to hover inside the side

air intakes. Below them are the LEDs of the fog lights. The side blades are painted in the exterior color of the body. SportDesign side skirts underline the powerful profile. Another typical feature of the Turbo is the “Macan Turbo” logo on the rear hatch.

Impressively, the 3.6-liter twin-turbo V6 engine delivers an enormous power output of 400 horsepower. The sprint from 0 to 60 mph is completed in a mere 4.6 seconds. Top track speed is 164 mph. Those aren’t simply bare numbers, but a compelling statement in terms of performance—and efficiency.

19-inch Macan Turbo wheels are fitted as standard. Behind these are the red brake calipers of the large-diameter brakes. The

steel spring suspension is equipped, as standard, with Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), which enhances both sporty performance and ride comfort.

As standard, the Macan Turbo comes with the leather package, which emphasizes the exquisite quality of the interior.

Another highlight is the new version of Porsche Communication Management (PCM) system with navigation module and a large touchscreen. It comes as standard, just like the Bose® Surround Sound System. Offering a total output of 665 watts and with 14 loudspeakers, including active subwoofer, it delivers a special listening experience.

The Macan Turbo. Performance in its most intense form.

Life is exactly what you make it. In your free time. On the road. And with your Macan. For us, there is no time for compromise.

Turbo exterior package

To command a strong presence, it’s crucial to have a persuasive demeanor, superior to all else. With the new Turbo exterior package, the Macan hits the road equipped with exclusive 21-inch 911 Turbo Design wheels—highly polished on the outside, black (high-gloss) paint finish on the inside—including wheel centers with full-color Porsche Crest.

The LED headlights with Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS Plus) and tinted LED taillights draw gazes whatever the time of day.

Other distinguishing design options include SportDesign exterior mirrors in the exterior color of the vehicle, or the side blades, side window trims and air intake grilles finished in black (high-gloss).

Other head-turners are the rear fascia in black (high-gloss) and the rear spoiler in exterior color.

The Sport exhaust system, featuring Sport tailpipes in black, will lend your Macan Turbo with an even more powerful sound.

When you enhance beauty, you eventually elicit exclusivity. That’s proven by the new Turbo interior package in Garnet Red or Rhodium Silver. The full leather interior in black, with the use of Alcantara® on the seat centers, center console armrest and door armrests, emphasizes this stunning appearance further still. And it underlines something else: we take beauty literally. The two available contrasting colors of Rhodium Silver and Garnet Red capture the attention and create visual accents— for example, on the headrests with “Turbo” logo, the seat belts and all the deviated stitching. The exquisite design is completed by the Carbon Fiber interior package and illuminated door sill guards,

Life, intensified | Macan GTS

Like surfing Niagara Falls.

Macan­ GTS.

Life isn’t meant to be lived in neutral. It drives us on to new things day in,

day out. It isn’t about getting from A to B, but pushing oneself to the limit. Taking everything on board. And being part of the race—24 hours of each new day.

Made for the challenge, the highly efficient 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 engine produces 360 horsepower and 369 lb.-ft. torque. And acceleration? The figures speak for themselves: 0 to 60 mph in a matter of 5.0 seconds. Not to mention the top track speed of 159 mph. The gearshifts of 7-speed Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK), as standard, are equally sporty. And the Sport exhaust system with black Sport tailpipes delivers a particularly aggressive sound.

Air Suspension with Porsche Active Suspension Management is standard for Macan GTS and sits 10mm lower than other Macan models equipped with air suspension. It regulates damping force based on current road conditions and driving style, maintaining an intimate and intense relationship with the road. A typical trait for the Macan GTS.

The Macan GTS conveys an even lower and muscular stance when equipped with the dynamic SportDesign package. The imposing SportDesign front fascia, featuring matte black air intake grilles and side skirts reinforce the dynamic appearance. As do the side blades in matte black, a finish reserved exclusively for the Macan GTS. A genuine top-class athlete, we might say. And that status is reaffirmed by its 20-inch RS Spyder Design wheels in Satin Black.

As sporty as they are exclusive, they simply can’t wait to blaze the asphalt. Visual accents are added by the Bi-Xenon™ headlights in black, including Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS) and the tinted LED taillights. Even the black “GTS” logo on the rear makes something unmistakably clear: the Macan GTS accepts no compromise.

Exquisite materials, such as leather and Alcantara®, and the latest version of Porsche Communication Management (PCM) system add the final touches to a sports car masterpiece promising to excite pure fascination. Right down the line.

If we had to express the word sportiness in just three letters, our answer would forever be: GTS.

The “S” principle has long been a tradition as far as Porsche cars are concerned.

It represents an especially sporty interpretation of a particular idea. It’s a promise of spine-tingling thrills—and omits anything superfluous to the spirit of sporty driving.

High performance, on the other hand, is something that the Macan S would never do without. Its 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 engine generates 340 horsepower and helps it to sprint from 0 to 60 mph in only 5.2 seconds. Top track speed is 156 mph. Figures to raise the hairs on the neck of any sports car enthusiast.

The Macan S is equipped with 19″ Macan Design wheels and silver-colored brake calipers. This high-performance athlete is also recognizable by the “Macan S” logo on the rear hatch—and on the door sill guards in aluminum.

Inside, sportiness is epitomized by the tachometer with silver-colored dial.

The sporty spirit can be intensified even further with a range of options such as the Sport Chrono Package. It includes the Sport Plus button, one press of which tunes the engine for an even sharper response. The chassis and transmission

also adapt their setup to Sport Plus mode. The package additionally comprises a stopwatch and the Launch Control function for the fastest possible acceleration from a standing start, e.g., on a racetrack. The latest Porsche Communication Management (PCM) system, integrated as standard, is supplemented by a performance display showing lap times and other essential driving stats.

An incorrigible flirt with life.

Macan.

Some of us focus on leisure time, while for others family comes first. The Macan is prepared for the many challenges of life.

Under the hood, we see a 2-liter 4-cylinder engine—yet we still claim that this is a sports car? Of course we do. It is a Porsche after all. With 252 horsepower and acceleration from 0 to 60 mph in 6.3 seconds, the new

Macan simply packs a punch. Efficiency is no exception.

Other identifiers include 18-inch Macan wheels and black brake calipers. For an individual look, you can choose from a wide range of colors and finishes.

The interior is ergonomic and multifunctional, and typical of a sports car. The driving experience inside the Macan can be intensified even further with features such as the new version of Porsche Communication Management (PCM) system—your control center for audio and telephone functions. Thanks to mobile phone integration, you can

connect directly via Bluetooth®. In response to hand movement, the integral proximity sensor activates the screen to display the relevant menu contents, which you can then operate intuitively using multi-touch gestures. Other options to help you face various challenges include the navigation module, the Connect Plus module, seat heating in the front and rear, child seats, and loadspace management systems.

Auto Start Stop function

To improve fuel economy, the Auto Start Stop function switches off the engine when you are coming to a stop at traffic lights, for example.

Standard in all Macan models.

Dynamics | Drive

Direct fuel injection (DFI)

With millisecond precision, DFI injects fuel at up to 2900 psi directly into the combustion chamber by means of electromagnetically actuated injection valves. The spray and cone angles have been optimized for torque, power output, fuel consumption and emissions by enabling a homogeneous distribution of the air/fuel mixture and, therefore, effective combustion. DFI improves the internal cooling of the combustion chamber by having the mixture prepared directly in the cylinder. This allows for a higher compression ratio, which helps deliver greater power output at the

same time as enhanced engine efficiency.

Thermal management

Engine cooling is prevented during the initial stages of a cold start so that the engine reaches its optimal operating temperature faster. This means it can begin working at high efficiency sooner, thereby consuming less fuel.

Active aerodynamics

The active radiator baffles open the airintake flaps only as needed. Whenever the cooling requirement is low, such as on relaxed drives, the radiator baffles close. Aerodynamics are enhanced, which helps to improve fuel economy. If, for example, a sporty driving style is adopted and the demand for power increases, the air-intake flaps will open and let in the necessary amount

of cooling air for increased driving performance.

Oil supply

The integrated dry-sump lubrication of the V6 gasoline engines guarantees a reliable supply of oil in all driving situations. The oil reservoir is located directly inside the engine, which saves on space and weight. An electronically controlled oil pump provides the correct amount of oil as and when needed. Optimized for sporty driving, it ensures optimal engine lubrication even in extreme situations.

Dynamics | Drive

Exhaust turbocharging

The twin-turbo V6 engines are equipped with two turbochargers arranged in parallel—one for each cylinder bank. Intake air is compressed and then fed to the engine via the respective intercoolers. This cooling process achieves high cylinder charge and low component temperatures.

Electrical system recuperation

To enhance efficiency, the electrical system in the Macan models is recharged on demand during engine overrun phases. Fuel consumption is thereby reduced, while the full power output of the engine is made available for acceleration phases. You won’t notice anything of the process itself, except for the results: optimal power and torque with lower fuel consumption and CO2 emissions.

Sport button

The Sport button, which is fitted as standard, allows you to select a setup that favors either comfort or sporty performance. When the button is pressed, the electronic engine management system switches the engine mapping

to offer an even sharper response and more direct engine dynamics.

Sport tailpipes

Sport tailpipes are available for your Macan on request. The twin dual-tube tailpipes are specially designed and feature a highly polished chrome-plated stainless steel finish, also available in chrome-plated black. A sporty statement that is visually unmistakable.

Standard in the Macan GTS.

Optional for all other models.

Sport exhaust system

The Sport exhaust system delivers an even more resonant sound. The Sport tailpipes in chrome-plated stainless steel—available in a choice of silver color or black—are a treat for both the eyes and the ears.

Standard in the Macan GTS.

Optional for all other models.

active all-wheel drive system. It comprises an electronic and map-controlled multi-plate clutch, the automatic brake differential (ABD) and anti-slip regulation (ASR). The electronically controlled multiplate clutch regulates the distribution of drive force between the rear axle and the front axle. Driving conditions are constantly monitored to enable a precise and lightning-quick response to a variety of situations.

Sensors continuously check, among other variables, the rotation speeds of all four wheels, the longitudinal and lateral acceleration of the vehicle, and the steering angle. If, for example, the rear

wheels threaten to spin under acceleration, a greater proportion of drive force is distributed to the front by a more powerful engagement of the

multiplate clutch. In addition, ASR reduces wheel slip. In corners, the drive force sent to the front wheels is regulated for optimal lateral stability.

In short, PTM transfers the incredible sportiness of the Macan to the road. Behind the wheel, you can feel what it’s like to be driving a genuine sports car: traction, outstanding steering behavior, superior handling, and, of course,

the excellent dynamics typical of any Porsche.
