PORSCHE Macan GTS (95B) 2019-2021 Photos, engines & full specs

Four years after its predecessor first brought the historic GTS (Gran Turismo Sport) moniker to the Macan range, Porsche has operated a mid-cycle facelift on the Macan GTS in 2019. Powered by a brand new engine and with a refreshed look, the sportiest member of the Macan family has been improved in almost every single respect. The 3.0-liter from the previous model was replaced by a 2.9-liter V6 that follows a "hot-vee" architecture of its twin-turbocharging system, with the turbos being arranged inside the V of the engine.

With 380 horsepower and 520 Nm of torque at its disposal, the new powerplant is exactly 20 hp and 20 Nm more powerful than the engine it replaces. Its responsiveness is also a lot more direct thanks to the same hot-vee arrangement, while the sports exhaust system has been specially tuned for the facelifted Macan GTS thanks to a similar reason. Design wise, the front end is nearly identical to its predecessor, but the rear has been extensively redesigned to keep the car more in line with the latest Porsche design language. That is why the individual rear taillights are now unified by a light bar like on its bigger brother, the Cayenne. The car also features a distinguishing feature found on all Porsche GTS models, with the front and rear aprons having black painted design elements no matter what the car's color is.
