Finished in Carmine Red, which is classified as one of Porsche's Special Colours, this 2022 Macan S is a particularly well-judged example of what remains one of the best all-round performance SUVs on the market. As part of the final facelift introduced for the 2022 model year, it benefits from a number of worthwhile updates inside and out, while the vibrant paintwork is contrasted by a number of Gloss Black exterior details. Important options including the Panoramic Roof and Adaptive Air Suspension further add to both its appearance and everyday usability. The facelift brought revised exterior styling, a cleaner and more modern centre console with touch-sensitive controls, and a refreshed engine line-up. The S is arguably the sweet spot of the range, combining the practicality and refinement that has made the Macan such a popular choice with a 2.9-litre twin-turbocharged V6 and the sort of handling and driver involvement that continues to separate it from most compact SUVs. Sitting beneath the more focused GTS, the S still offers more than enough performance and character for everyday use. Previously supplied by Romans, this particular car is one we already know well and benefits from having been freshly serviced by Porsche. Combining the desirable facelift updates with a strong specification, distinctive colour and excellent provenance, it represents a particularly appealing example of the Macan S and a car equally suited to being an everyday Porsche or a genuinely entertaining performance SUV.
