How’d you beat me to the first comment 14 hours before 🥲
Hii, sorry
The pronounce this car is "MACAN" with "C" not with "K" (MAKAN), because Porche said they take this name from Indonesian language. And the meaning "MACAN" is "JAGUAR" if you say "MAKAN" that meant "EATING"
@@OOOO-ou6ek hi Uu
Uu
What happened to jakub’s energy?
So this site does not work for Canada?
The back seat/trunk space part was amazing! It gave me a better feel for what it would actually be like to live with! Thank you for the extra work that you put in to get that shot!
Back seats are quite small, so it’s the trunk space, even the trunk space is most than enough for most people. My wife had and macan GTS 2017 and she changed it to a GLC only due to space in the back. Still the Macan it’s the best looking SUV out there, and the engine in the GTS was 😍
Its small in back seat. Just is. I rode in back of ours on road trip and not most comfortable. But feels high quality back there.
@@adrianmate4896 It is a bit tight in the back if you are a taller person, but The Macan is super fun to drive.
How did you afford one
Please do more of the back seat/trunk space scenes! It's incredibly relevant for someone actually looking to purchase this car and you guys did it super efficiently and amazingly!
🥰
@@TheStraightPipes compare it to the sq5!!!
Good review of a base model, that is good to see. Often only up-model versions are reviewed but some of us are aiming a little lower as a starting point into a brand. Your videography and editing are quite good.
The first shipments and allocations for the 2022’s were actually the base cars. They sell way more lightly optioned base Macans than anything else. Given they know where their bread is buttered it isn’t hard at all to a get a lightly optioned one. Your tester actually has a lot of options. In fact that matte texture on the dash panel is leather and that is a fairly pricey upgrade over the standard Piano Black (though wood and Aluminium are now available at no extra cost)
Jamal you’re on it bro 💪🏽💪🏽
Actually........ You're mistaken. That vehicle has partial leather, and the dash is a mix of textured soft touch vinyl (Mojave beige) on the lower, and black on the upper, with the black brushed aluminum as the interior trim which can be an assortment of different materials, like carbon fiber, or painted, ect. The option you are thinking of is a $2,000+ dollar option where the lowers in that Mojave beige color is actually swapped out for smooth leather. It's confusing, but once you see one in person that has the standard interior next to one with extended full leather.... You'll be able to get a better feel for what Porsche means by their varying interior "trim" options.
@@9fiveb180 I was speaking on the area where the wood, Aluminum, or carbon would go. This particular one has it in smooth leather which is optional and very rare on these. If you go back and look carefully you’ll see that it’s a matte material that looks soft. Non-GTS Macans are not available with black aluminum, just the regular silver kind which is now a no cost option Stateside.
A year late to conversation but the Macan production line doesn't work that way. The Macan and Panamera are produced at the same time, on the same production line in Leipzig. It produces different spec cars and SUVs sequentially as needed. There are documentaries where they show how different colors, engines, spec and vehicle type fluctuate on the production line. A black Panamera Turbo with red alcantara can be followed by a white Macan with a plaid leather interior.
Appreciate the extra attention payed to the trunk space! The box test is missed, but this is a nice compromise!
Paid
Paid
Whatever happened to the box tests? Do they still do them?
New transitions! The new editors hand is tangible in a neat way!
Guys this was an amazing review loved every part of it.and the new segment where Jakub reviews the seating capacity is a great welcome.❤️
Yeah, I like it too
OMG finally!!! That was the one element severely lacking from all of your prior reviews…. When everything was said and done I had no clue how large the interior space was or how much luggage space was on offer. It helps tremendously when stating how tall you are as well, so please keep it up, it’s definitely appreciated!
Love your reviews and your launches. Ordered a volcano grey 22 Macan GTS Loaded out. Will be my jacked up version of a 911….lol. Can’t wait to get it in the spring. Truly a great engineered suv and really enjoyed that you can customize your build with Porsche. Keep ‘em coming.
This is unquestionably the best out of Q5, GLC300, X3, NX
Yup.. for a lot more money and considerably smaller. It has the size of a SUV a class lower. To me you can't even cross shop those with this.
@@joellarrysr9977 In terms of the base models, the Macan is far superior to the others. Sure, it’s a bit more expensive but it’s much more car.
@@doggedlydetermined7022 the base NX Is sub 40k and will probably outlive the owners
the macan is also £10k more than the NX lol
Porsche is usually best in class, but also usually most expensive by far so it’s not really that impressive. It better dominate it’s section of the market for that price lol
That shift burble literally sounded like a fart in the beginning
I thought someone had put a fart can on a Corolla.
Love this review, you guys have covered pretty much all the bases when it comes to the Macan. We’ve been looking at a Macan S for a while now and this review echoes everything I felt during that test drive. Great car, great review.
Just got this 2022 macan 1 week ago! Absolutley love it as a first time porsche owner. So far everything is pretty similar to what you said. I noticed the same thing you mentioned about the engine, but roughly 1000kms in I feel like its starting to get smoother as I drive it more on a daily basis. Plus the car is starting to pop and bruble alot more in sport mode 1st gear 3k-4k range.
Love the fact that you show the backseat space! I always wondered and went to other chanels but now, I won’t have to😄
1:30, really enjoyed this bit. A nice upgrade in presentation. Would also LOVE if you would provide the vehicle's weight along side horsepower and torque.
Gave me flashbacks to Jakob’s first and only “walk around”
Great quality. Happy 2022. Wishing y’all a great year. I like this color match better wheel better. More subtle but still a nice extra touch.
I'm 6' 1.5" so your back seat review is literally the most relevant one on the internet for me. Love it!
My absolute dream car, everything that you need. Amazing looks, good performance, gorgeous porsche interior, and enough space for my friends/family/dog. I might rather go for the cayenne if I had the money but honeslty these looks are better (not including the gt turbo)
I bought one and Im picking it up later this week! It will be my first Porsche. You guys have me so hyped right now. Its going to be a great start with the brand.
Having had a 2021 as a loaner I totally agree that it's better than most cars period
Damnnnnn! Great review. Loved you showing the back seat head room with Jakub. Keep up the great work!
I just watched this car review TWICE, because that’s how much more production value this one feels like. Loving it.
My Porsche dealership experience itself has always been great, but you guys aren't wrong about delaying on "cheaper" models. Was stuck between a Spyder and GTS 4.0, the wait for Spyder was 8-12 months, GTS 4.0 would have been well over a year IF they could even get one. Obviously I went for the Spyder haha
Makes me happy to have snatched up a GTS 4.0 right off the lot last year. I can't imagine waiting 8-12 months, let alone a year.
@@le1690 good for you. Anything else?
@@user-xf5kf4ho3p Of all the flavors, you chose to be sour.
HELLOING BLARG
It’s Blarg!!!
This is the best review on your channel. Slick edits, copy is nice and tight. I might have to subscribe. Fantastic!
I leased a base 2021 Macan and absolutely love it. Completely agree that it is a starter Porsche meant to get you into the brand. I can state that it is difficult for me to plan on driving anything else moving forward (I realize I am lucky to be in the situation) ... I hope to upgrade to a Taycan next. Overall the drive and feel for the road are unlike anything else I have driven. It's a fun car to drive and the brand experience at the dealership is top notch. No upselling, they know what they offer and are excited for new buyers as they know they will get you hooked. Macan EV will be awesome to see soon!
Nice to have you back. Happy New Year!
This is my first comment. I love all your videos especially high end Supercars and top of the range models but this was great to watch. I definitely would suggest making more entry level reviews as this is something everyday people are keen to watch!! 👌
Another awesome Review! Love your Videos! 🔥
Greetings from Germany 🤙
I've already watched a review by a different RUclipsr but your channel is so much more entertaining!
Just got my 22’ Macan, the first of this year. And I LOVE IT! :D! Great Review!
Love these videos because they have the most interesting and high quality videos. It is very entertaining.
You guys really upped your edit game, there are some really nice transitions in there!👌
I really liked the quick walk around sitting behind yourself and trunk room. You guys should keep doing that angle.
Hopefully you guys get to review the 2022 GTS since it is now more rigid, better suspension, and received the Turbo's engine. I have one on order with a March delivery, but really hoping you guys get your hands on one. Great videos, as always.
Love the new format of showing the cars space n boot capacity of better clarity..... Always wanted something of sort tht is akin to doug demuro vids .. happy abt the more in depth review format... Keep it up guys
N tht too without losing the banter you guys had before.. more content additional to the normal format tht you have..
It is a really good looking car, unlike some of the other high end suvs. I like the interior of Porsches as well. They are simple and have real gauges.
Ahhh I love the new cuts. Well done boys!
Nice review guys. Gives me a feel and sets expectation for GTS I have on order…..really loaded. Going to be my 911 on stilts.😊. Can’t wait to get it. Should arrive in April. Love your opener and launches. Keep it going.
What field of work are you in Dean to afford a GTS?
I bought my ‘17 macan gts partially because of your old review of it! It’s awesome and I love it, keep it up my dudes.
Gts is a weapon. Come back next weekend for another gts 😉
Great video guys! Yuri looked low on energy today though. Hope all's good buddy!
Another great one from TSP. Love the Macan! The little clock above the center stack is a must have for blasting down the 401 during rush hour. That is how you know you have arrived.
Love the Macan too...but "blasting down the 401" and "rush hour" is an impossible combination 😄
I've watched this video over 10 times now now for peace of mind. Great review and can't wait for my 2022 base to come in next month. Sucks the S model is impossible to get which was my first preference. Switching over from an X3, so excited to enter the gateway of the porsche brand.
How is it?
That part where you said “continuity error, because yuri isn’t next to me”. Literally blew my mind. I was like “it’s lined up, same sentence, somethings different… but what???? Ommmmmgggg!!!”
Liking the new format of the video keep it up guys
As always, I enjoy your videos. I’m contemplating trading my 2020 718 in for a 2022 base Macan that’s pretty well equipped, and beautiful.
I was hopeful to retain the sports car element as I’ve had 4 Porsche sports cars within a utility vehicle. But when you said current Porsche owners might consider it a downgrade to get a base Macan as in essence the driving experience isn’t the same, it made me rethink that pursuit.
Love the new additions to your reviews!
Great idea to test the bases model especially the engine really helps since most buyer go with the base engine
Happy New Year, boys. Keep up the great work!!
9:09 man that gauge cluster design is a full 10-years old now. All the way back to at least the 2012 991.1. Can't wait for the next one.
Still the best one they ever made.
I’m looking at a 2017 Macan S, 340 hp, AWD… 51,000 miles. It’s immaculate-definitely been garage kept. I test drove it and it didn’t take long to fall in love.
Buy the previous model in GTS spec, or if you get lucky and find a Turbo with all of the GTS’s features (namely the air suspension) PLUS sport chrono, get that one. NEVER buy a base Macan. The S at least gets you PDK, but the real magic of the Macan is that the air suspension (standard in the GTS, but only a 50/50 shot on the used Turbos) let’s you drive to vmax while staying all the way low. When you put it all together the previous model GTS is the best all around 1 vehicle buy under $50k…and no gloss back dash.
Facts 💯
Ive watch a lot of your videos they are really good, continue the good work and by the way ive been working at porsche dealershing since 3 months and i just learned where the heating steering wheel button was lol
I've always liked the Macan, but for what a base one sells in your brotherly states to the south, the better purchase is a BMW X3 M40i with the B58 turbo 3.0L engine and ZF 8 speed transmission.
Good first time Porsche owner. I got a 2018 Macan with 13,000 miles for a great price and I’m definitely getting a 911 in a few years. Good starter Porsche. I’m happy with it.
I should go to a Porsche Experience center if I can
My mom has a base model with extras on it but it is an absolutely AWESOME car! Amazing interior, comfortable in the back spacious.
When we went to buy our Macan (in 2019), we had base model in mind. As we were adding options, price quickly rose up (because Porsche). So the porsche guy goes like: "look, it is getting into high Macan S numbers, we do not have macan S currently, but we have Macan GTS in shop. Wouldn't you want to try it?". 25 minutes later, we were ordering Macan GTS :D. You dont have to sell porsches, these cars sell themselves :D :D :D. (Also, incredible car. I am in love.)
How much was the montly payment?
I test drive Macan GTS yesterday, and placed the order, even the waiting period more than 10 months. Have to say it's the ultimate midsized SUV.
Love the new format!!!!
You should drive more base models since so many people drive these. I ordered a Macan T which is essentially abase and it is awesome.
Loved the visuals on this 👏
Another great video, thanks. Since you're doing base models, how about that new RWD BMW 230i in M Sport trim? I'm sure you'd dig driving it, and not a lot of folks reviewing it. I know, everyone wants the M240 X Drive, but as a purist's car, the 230 beats the current M240 IMO!
this is literally your 5th Macan review!! I'd say this is the only car u guys reviewed the most out of every car in your automotive journey because this car is this great in every way.
How about the full Elantra N review (if it's available in Canada)??
Elantra N when it gets warmer
Love our base model Macan! Test driving it back to back with a Q5, X3 and Passport it was clear the Macan is so much better. Bought it in the first months of the pandemic with a big discount. Does a great job towing the racecar as well!
I drove my sister's 2020 Macan S before. Love how the PDK shifts. Sometimes I wish I got that over the 2020 Q8, but then Q8 serves different purposes. We were lucky to get ours before the chip shortage with better deals.
I have a Q5 sportback, gotta say EA888 isn’t far off from EA839, such a smooth engine, however Porsche’s improved dl501 does shift quicker and the car handles better
@@MrVuTran but Q8 looks too good
Big fan from India. Love your reviews. Keep it up!!! 👍👍
Considering the next-gen Mecan is supposed to go fully EV, this might be the bargain ICE Porsche to buy right now. Love the looks, it's always been my favorite German SUV. Great review guys!
absolutely love the new camera work!
It’s actually just the old camera work that I’m doing again! I bought back my old gimbal from the guy I sold it to a couple years ago
Love my Macan! P.S. Awesome video editing! 👌🏼
Always go for the S - the 4 cylinder is ok, but ist feels it struggles with the car and has to rev high to move. Fuel economy is almost same between base and S. The V6 feels so much better.
Love my 2019 S, I may tune it to get turbo stock power but I really don't need it daily.
Love my ‘17 S also. But if I couldn’t afford the S, I would without hesitation get the base, bc it’s such an excellent car anyway.
Especially with the 2022 S which has the old GTS engine and HP in it. That's the sweet spot considering the GTS is the new Turbo.
@@avol3xo stage 1 (tune only) on e40 nets 480-490hp and just over 600ft-lbs of torque, imagine the launch. 600ft lbs at 2400rpm is nuts!
On e60-e85, it’ll make 500-510hp and 585ft-lbs of torque, the peak torque number is lower, but it actually makes more torque over the entire rev range.
Agree. The base has less HP, Torque, and performance than much cheaper competitors, but costs more. Much better to go for the S with a 6 cyl that isn't just another VW motor.
Amazing review, love it
Nice transition from in/out of vehicle (re: rear seat/cargo space).
Switching up the format… Good idea, I like it, refreshing 👍👍
🙏
Pretty good! I looked at one a year ago just for fun and it was larger then I was expecting. It was pretty good
You’re back!👌🏻
Got a new 2021 Macan S in stock last year with very very limited options. Those speced cars still exist and I’m fine with it
Bought a 2018 Macan GTS because of a review these guys did. Best decision ever. Thanks fellas!
6:15: haha ... I bought a new base Macan as my *third* Porsche (after two Panameras) because it's the best value in a Porsche, by far ... And the engine is excellent, lots of pep and good acceleration, as you'd expect from nearly 300 lb-ft of torque... People get obsessed with 400, 500, 600 hp, but seriously those levels of power are unnecessary for people if you don't drive on the Autobahn or on tracks; people tend to lose track of reality. The base Macan is a seriously good car to drive, including at high speeds (very stable and planted). I almost bought a Macan S, then decided that it really wasn't that much better than a base Macan to warrant the much-higher price -- after multiple test drives of both. And the base gets way better gas mileage than does the S.
Would love to see more base models being reviewed since that is what most people are going to be buying.
Where did you get your stats
Love the review thanks, and yes I just bought some Tim Hortons for home here in Boca. lol First had it in Vancouver a couple of years ago
The back and truck segment **chef’s kiss**
71% of prebuilt stock at the local dealer are base model 2021-2022 Macans. So this is actually what is available.
Well, it's not like I'll ever be in one, but I always liked the old button style of the Macan, even if the slot was empty. Piano black is rarely a good feature to me, still, it's a nice compact looking ride, but the refresh of the Cayenne looks better overall in my eyes.
When I was deciding between the Macan S or X3 M40i, I ultimately went with the X3 M40i because exactly of the additional headspace and legroom in the back. But the Macan looks a lot better than the X3 in my mind.
Tough choice but no one can argue the choice.
I agree. That’s why I went with the S.
I considered the GLC and X3, test drove a Macan on a whim and the Macan is about two tiers above either of those cars. I got the Macan, not contest.
Nice review thanks! I saw you were able to turn on heated and cooled seats on at full power at the same time…it lets you do that? What happens? 😊
Even my Macan S, when in normal mode drives sluggish, feels like it's in economy mode, as soon as I put in in sport, the car transforms!
Can't drift them, but I power slide my dad's 2018 base all the time. love it.
Now this is the review i was looking for. I have placed order for mine gentian blue. You guys just added cherry on top
I have a 2021 Macan GTS spyder alloys and optional carmine red paint..love it from day 1. the only problem is rear leg room. i am 6 feet tall and anyone above 5.10 and above, forget about sitting behind me. boot space is good for all my needs with a small family. went on a road trip for 7 days up north and it worked fine.
I have this car with the chrono package….sports plus…it’s like driving a different car. It’s a very satisfying vehicle.
Great vid. I have a question. I have porsche 911 and now I'm thinking of getting a car with more seats. I'm thinking Macan S (2022), Cayenne coupe S, and Panamera Sport Turisumo. Which one would you recommend and why? Thanks!
Love your videos. I have a 2018 Macan GTS and a deposit down for a Panamera GTS but everyday thinking of just getting a 2022 Macan GTS instead. I’ve always wanted a Panamera but logically can’t justify the +$40k over Macan. What are your thoughts?
We purchased a macan base with a premium package back in 2017. We ordered our 2024 the same way. We tried to convince ourselves with cheapper price tag on the X3, GLC and Q5 but, no way you could replace a Macan with those ones. Better of paying more now than regreting soon. The only reason we kept our 2017 for 8 years is that we still love it buts its time to replace it.
Loved the updated format
While the interior materials are a tad better in this Porsche, I'd still opt for an Alfa Romeo Stelvio over this. That's why I bought one. 280 bhp and 305 lbs. torque.
Me too!
They really needed to update this. I've driven the former Macan on multiple occasions as a service loaner and it felt like it was half the price new. That 4 cylinder whine tho.
You guys should include a small clip of “can you sleep in it” like folding the rear and laying down, a lot of people sleep in their vehicle weather it be traveling or camping/living!
How fast were you driving while testing LKA? I believe it only corrects above 40 mph. And if it only has LDW, not LKA, it will only audibly alert you. LKA does have to be turned on in order for steering assist as well.
Love this / you guys!
I love the walk around style!!
I like this duo. It works. I'm sold! x
