Porsche lists Macan facelift on the website

It will be offered in three variants - Macan, Macan S, and Macan GTS.

Porsche has listed the facelifted Macan SUV on the brand's Indian website. It will be offered in three variants - Macan, Macan S, and Macan GTS.

The SUV comes with an updated front grille, larger alloy wheels (ranging from 19 - 21 inches), revised LED headlamps and a tweaked diffuser at the rear. The GTS trim further comes with blacked-out elements all around, along with a unique rear diffuser. It also gets a revamped cabin and dashboard layout. The most significant change is the removal of the physical buttons on the centre console, which has now been replaced by touch-sensitive panels with haptic feedback. Porsche now also offers more freedom to its customers, allowing them to customise the interiors according to their taste.

The 2022 Porsche Macan facelift now comes with two engine options. The base trim continues to be powered by an updated version of the 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-petrol engine. It now produces 265 BHP and 430 Nm; an increase of 13 BHP and 50 Nm from the outgoing version.

The Macan S and the Macan GTS, are now powered by a 2.9-litre V6 turbo-petrol engine, replacing the older 3.0-litre V6. The engine on the Macan S is tuned to produce 380 BHP, while on the GTS variant, it churns out 440 BHP. All three trims come with a four-wheel-drive system and Porsche's PDK dual-clutch automatic transmission unit as standard.
