Really good review once again! Very good critical point about the back seats and details as the light in the vanity mirrors. Sometimes Porsche and other companies get carried away when they offer options which should be certainly standard at this price range.

Hello Autogefuhl! In your driving session did you press the sound exhaust button (the second one on the right part of the center column)? I am curious if the car sounds even better than in Sport Plus mode. Greetings!:)

There is no inductive charger aka "Qi". That is the "smartphone compartment in center console for optimized cellular reception and battery-saving operation." Took that directly from the configurator on the Porsche site.

In your road test was the sport exhaust on or off. Trying to figure out the exhaust note of the new engine.

Thanks for the review. You told us the neumatic suspension is "active", to avoid body roll, does it mean it is equipped with the PDCC?. Thanks in advance

very Good VIDEO! Good Guy...

@AdityaJayaram

@@TheKennyG64 thanks Roger. I think the x3m40i has a much more lively engine. It had more personality. But then again, a more boisterous personality, like an athletic puppy. The macan s has the ability to feel a more relaxed, like a wiser dog (pretty silly comparisons, i know). Its only when you push it that it feels electrifying. The m40i feels like a party even at lower rpms and speeds. To me, since both these suvs are meant to be performance oriented, the m40i just edges the macan s in terms of sheer driver engagement.. Though the macan is probably a bit better at being more comfortable and at being a more well rounded package... So, yes the m40i is more lively, you can turn that down with the comfort mode, but the macan feels more mature.

Thanks for the review: my order for the new Macan S has gone through - I should receive it in March '19. Overall, I am pleased, but disappointed that Porsche do not have 'Agate Grey' any more as an option; that they will not allow all-season tyres; that there is no option for 'surface-coated' brake discs (as per the Cayenne); no option to have night vision; no option to have a head-up display; and no option for matrix LED headlights. Still, looking forward to receiving my first ever Porsche !

Are you sure, that they are cooling exhaust gases going to turbine? Because in turbine you need more energy not oxygen, that is relevant to the air, that goes from compressor to engine. Maybe I'm not so great on physics, but I bet, that hot gases has more energy, than cold.

@human1513

5 жыл бұрын

Cooler air means it is condensed or has smaller molecules (if that is the correct word) for a specific volume. So at a specific pressure more air is in the same size area. Picture a box. You can force more colder air into the box than room temperature air when the same psi is used. Therefore, more air into a cylinder means more energy in each cylinder of the engine. This concept has been used in engines for over 100 years. Things shrink when cold & expand when heated: gases, air, human parts (think a male's part, lol), metals, water/ice....

@human1513

5 жыл бұрын

So cooler exhaust gases to the turbo will reduce the temperature of the turbo itself helping to cool the incoming air into & through the turbo to the cylinders. Exhaust gases only spin 1 side of the turbo fan. On the other side of turbo's shaft is a fun being driven that is drawing in & pushing out to the air towards the cylinders. The shaft has a seal at it mid section to separate the hot exhaust side & the cooler intake side.

Thanks for this review with plenty of information! I'd be interested to see the Macan S in direct comparison to the Audi SQ5 TFSI FY Platform: As far as I can see, the facelift Macan S shares the same AUDI engine, but with PDK instead of the ZF-8HP transmission. It uses the old Q5 8R platform. Would be interesting to see them head-to-head (though I believe Audi stopped selling the SQ5 TFSI for whatever reason).
