The 2025 Porsche Macan is the best luxury SUV you can buy when it comes to performance. Its nimble handling and overall vibe feel more sports car than luxury SUV. But the Macan is expensive, especially when loaded up with the endless list of options Porsche provides. A small cargo area is another concern.Read full review

Part of the first Macan generation introduced for 2015

Overview

by the Edmunds Experts

12/20/2024

In 2025, there are two Porsche Macan models. The gas-powered version continues without significant changes, and it's based on a design that is now more than a decade old. The electric version arrived during the summer of 2024 and is something else entirely. Still, all Macans are compact luxury SUVs engineered to fully put the "sport" in sport-utility. If you're seeking comfort and cargo space, you might want to consider a different vehicle. If you want to go fast and have fun while occasionally carrying other people and larger items, the 2025 Macan is the right ride for you.

Cost to Drive^{Cost to drive estimates for the 2025 Porsche Macan 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 7AM) and comparison vehicles are based on 15,000 miles per year (with a mix of 55% city and 45% highway driving) and energy estimates of $3.76 per gallon for premium unleaded in Utah.}

Edmunds spotlight: Why are there two different Macans?

The new all-electric Macan is not Porsche's first electric vehicle, but it is the first of the automaker's existing nameplates to transition from gasoline to electricity. So, Porsche is continuing to sell both models side by side, giving its customers a choice between the two types of drivetrains. Will this gas and electric strategy continue in the future? Don't bet on a gas-powered version of the second-generation Macan because Porsche builds it on a dedicated EV platform. Still, we give Porsche credit for offering consumers a choice.

Competitors to consider

Porsche has regularly updated the gas-powered Macan during the past 10 years, and both the design and engineering have aged well, but it's still worth considering similarly swoopy and performance-oriented compact luxury SUVs. Rivals include the Alfa Romeo Stelvio, Audi SQ5 Sportback, BMW X4 M40i and X4 M, and the Mercedes-AMG GLC 43 Coupe. If your heart is set on getting a Porsche, don't forget to read our full Expert Rating of the 2025 Macan below.

Edmunds Expert Rating

edmunds TESTED

by the Edmunds Experts

Average

7.2

out of 10

We drove the 2025 Porsche Macan on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.^{The Edmunds Vehicle Testing Team evaluates a fresh batch of vehicles every week, pairing objective assessments at our test track with real-world driving on city streets, freeways and winding roads. The data we gather results in our Expert Ratings. They’re based on 30-plus scores that cover every aspect of the automotive experience.}

Performance

8/10

How does the Macan drive? The Macan feels every bit a Porsche on a twisty road. The way it stops, steers and handles gives you complete confidence, and it's a joy to drive along uncrowded backroads. But we've found a big difference in acceleration between the base four-cylinder engine and the available V6. The Macan T we tested, which has the four-cylinder, sprinted from 0 to 60 mph in a respectably quick 5.5 seconds.

However, that's the number we recorded at our test track when using the Macan's launch control system and Porsche's Sport Response feature (a system that primes the engine to give max power). In typical driving, the four-cylinder engine is more sluggish. Other more powerful trims like the S and GTS are significantly more satisfying, and true enthusiasts should likely start their search for their ideal Macan there.

Comfort

7.5/10

How comfortable is the Macan? The Macan has a firmer ride than most other small luxury SUVs. You'll feel bumps and imperfections in the road, but it's not harsh or uncomfortable. Models equipped with the available air suspension have a smoother ride; it's worth getting if comfort is a priority. It's a similar theme when it comes to the front seats. The base front seats are firm and lack adjustability and are not the best for long drives. Seats with more adjustability are available, but it's unfortunate that you have to pay extra for them.

The climate system works and the controls are easy to use, but the placement of the vents means it's occasionally hard to feel the air coming into the cabin. You'll also be able to hear the fans whirring away. Road and wind noise isn't as well muted as in other luxury SUVs, and the base four-cylinder engine can sound gruff at times.

Interior

7.5/10

How’s the interior? The Macan's gloss black center panel has backlit icons that serve as touch-sensitive buttons. It works well enough, but the huge slab of piano black attracts fingerprints almost instantly, and the greasy look of the panel cheapens the interior. Beyond that, though, the materials are top-notch, and the driving position is low and easy to dial in. It makes you feel like this is a sporty place to be, as any good Porsche should.

The rear is a different story. Getting into the back can be a cumbersome affair for larger adults and those with more limited mobility. The narrow door opening and sloping roof mean you're liable to bonk your head on the way in, and once you sit down you'll realize knee and shoulder room are seriously lacking. Other SUVs in the class offer a more comfortable and accommodating back seat.

Technology

7/10

How’s the tech? The Macan's center touchscreen has sharp-looking graphics and is easy to use. That said, there's nothing truly standout about the Macan's technology. Its voice recognition isn't as intuitive as what you'd find in the equivalent BMW or Mercedes. And both of those brands do a better job of integrating Apple CarPlay, while the Porsche crams it into just 60% of the display's real estate. Smartphone integration was also slightly unreliable in our testing, and we needed to restart our test iPhone several times to get wireless Apple CarPlay to work properly.

Our test car also had driver aids that could use some refinement. The lane keeping assistance feature didn't keep our Macan within the lane as well as it should have, and the parking sensors were far too sensitive, leaving massive gaps between the Porsche and any obstacles that were nearby.

Storage

6/10

How’s the storage? A regular knock on the Macan has been its size, or general lack thereof. And with just 17.2 cubic feet behind the second row, the Macan's cargo space is very small for its class. The BMW X3 offers 28.7 cubic feet of space with the rear bench up, and even a Golf GTI offers more room back there.

Small items won't have a much easier time finding a home either. There isn't a good place to put your phone except the center console, the cupholders are too small, and your wallet and other items will likely fill up the doorbins rather quickly.

Got kids? The rear seat isn't as roomy as the ones in other small SUVs, but it's still large enough to accommodate a rear-facing child safety seat (as long as you don't have the front seats slid back too much). There are Isofix anchors on the outboard seats that are easily found beneath plastic covers.

Continue reading Edmunds Expert Rating below

Range and Efficiency

7.5/10

How are the range and efficiency? The Macan is about average when it comes to fuel efficiency. The EPA says the Macan should get 19 mpg combined or 21 mpg combined depending on which engine you have underhood and which trim you opt for. Pleasingly, we recorded 23 mpg combined from our four-cylinder Macan T on our evaluation test route, indicating that the EPA's numbers should be viable in real-world situations.

Value

7/10

Is the Macan a good value? It's hard to argue that the Macan is a good value. It's smaller than most everything else in the class, and base models are saddled with the least powerful engine Porsche will sell you. Porsche also leaves out many options that other brands like BMW and Mercedes normally include as standard. It drives and feels like a Porsche and is certainly well built, but sometimes just having the right "feel" can't make up for a car's hefty price tag. Additionally, Porsche's warranty is mid-pack when compared to other luxury automakers.

Wildcard

7.5/10

Be it good or bad, the Macan is one of the most popular Porsches on sale today. But considering that they all look largely the same, only a small group of real enthusiasts will notice the differences between the base car and the top-flight GTS. Base models are also far too expensive for the equipment and performance they deliver, while more powerful models command a hefty premium. That said, the Macan (in T, S or GTS guise) is fun to pedal on the day-to-day and makes for an engaging and satisfying everyday companion. Just don't expect to get the "thumbs-up" from passers-by that other Porsche owners so frequently enjoy.

Which Macan does Edmunds recommend?

The point of getting a Porsche Macan is for its performance. So when shopping for a gas-fueled version of this SUV, skip over the base and Macan T models and head straight for the Macan S. Thanks to its considerably more powerful twin-turbocharged V6 engine, the Macan S zooms to 60 mph in about 4.5 seconds.

A Macan S has become my daily driver after two VW Golf Rs. On the cusp of 80, I still wanted a car with a sporting character, but something that was blessedly quiet and that could accommodate easily a couple of friends and their golf clubs.
