Porsche Macan
The Macan is living on borrowed time as a fully electric replacement is coming soon. Drivers have a choice of two engines—a turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder (261 horsepower) and a turbocharged 2.9-litre V6 (375 horsepower or 434 horsepower depending on the model). Handling is amazing in typical Porsche fashion, but the long list of options can be a real problem: the price for a Macan GTS jumps more than 50 percent when checking all the boxes.
