Porsche has announced that the launch of the 2019 Porsche Macan facelift in India will be on July 29, 2019. The Porsche Macan was first launched in 2014 and since then it has largely remained unchanged. It was due a makeover since a long time and finally it has arrived. the 2019 Porsche Macan comes with updated styling, more features and comfort and improved driving dynamics as well.
The 2019 Porsche Macan facelift’s styling has been much inspired by its bigger brother, the Cayenne. At the front, the bumper has been completely redesigned to make it look much wider. The LED fog lamp housings are also much more aggressive than before. It also gets the new four-point LED headlamps we see in the newer Porsche’s these days.
In profile, it remains largely the same but it is at the rear where it is most differentiating from the pre-facelift model. The three-part, three-dimensional LED light strip along the tailgate looks amazing on an otherwise neat rear end. The four-point design of the brake lights have also been inspired from its bigger sibling, the Cayenne.
With the 2019 Macan facelift launch, the interiors also sees some considerable update. The dashboard layout is in line with newer Porsche cars and now features an 11-inch touchscreen display for the new Porsche Communication Management (PCM). The air-con vents too have been redesigned and now sit below the infotainment screen instead of on the sides.
It also gets a new steering wheel, similar to the ones we see in the 911s. Also, Porsche will offer a Connect Plus module, making every vehicle fully connected along with the new ‘off-road precision’ app, that can record and analyse off-road driving experiences in the SUV.
