Porsche has announced a series of updates for its all-electric Macan, focusing on enhancing driver and passenger experience with smarter assistance systems and improved entertainment options. The new features, set to launch by the end of the year, include the advanced Surround View assistance system, which now offers Trained Parking and Reversing Assist, and the Porsche Digital Key compatible with iPhone, Apple Watch, and Android devices.
The Surround View system, equipped with four high-resolution cameras, provides a 360-degree view and cross-traffic alerts, making parking in tight spaces easier. The Trained Parking feature allows the Macan to learn and automate parking routines, whilst Reversing Assist enables automatic reversing along previously driven routes. These innovations aim to simplify manoeuvring in challenging environments.
In addition to these driving aids, the Macan’s App Centre transforms the vehicle into a mobile entertainment hub. New gaming options from Gameloft and Obscure Interactive are available, and AirConsole offers a variety of games playable via smartphone. The optional passenger display ensures entertainment without distracting the driver.
The Voice Pilot feature, enhanced with artificial intelligence, now understands complex queries and provides an on-board manual through voice commands. This makes the Macan a more interactive and user-friendly vehicle.
The updated Macan will be available in Germany from autumn, with prices starting at $250,688, excluding COE. The model’s practicality is further improved with an increased towing capacity of 2,500 kilograms. These updates underscore Porsche’s commitment to integrating cutting-edge technology into its vehicles.
