Porsche 918 Spyder

Porsche’s unique designs reminiscent of the iconic 911 car now includes the Macan – a sportscar moonlighting as a compact SUV. The Macan retains the sporty DNA of a classic Porsche, but is reinvented with a new wraparound bonnet, a sloping roof line for an edgy side profile, and design lines that pay homage to the 911, giving the car a powerful appearance with classic clean muscle. Its interior is decorated with a three-spoke sports steering wheel, inspired by the design of the 918 Spyder. This adds to the Macan’s smooth driving performance, allowing you to accelerate from 0 to 100km/h in six seconds with a top speed of 223 km/h. Be it the chic S variant or diesel-engine Turbo, each one stays true to the Porsche philosophy. www.porsche.com
