Porsche added a new mid-size SUV to its luxury car line-up in mid-2014 and promised buyers the Macan would live up to sportscar heritage.

The range kicked off with the diesel S, moved up to the 3.0-litre V6 petrol S, followed by the top-spec 3.6-litre Turbo, all mated to an automatic transmission.
