We although have both cars- ix and macan. The ix owner is really looking forward to the lease end and the following "downgrade" to the macan. Even with the ix facelift on mind.
Absolutely. But thats (of course) only my opinion.
I would prefer a "must have equipped" turbo rather than a "loaded 4S"...
My turbo:

Wheels satin, because i wanted to avoid as much glossy as possible (micro scratches and so on..)
Bose...
For me Sport Chrono is a must have- I do not like the "interrupted cross-braces" look without SC and the response under Sport + is more present. I agree that road bumps are more noticeable so i changed the shock absorbers in S+ permanently to Sport "only".
Only my 0,02€ ;)
Changed from a taycan 4S (ST) to a macan turbo.
Both good cars and i agree in many points with you. For me the both gamechangers are easy entering and leaving the driver seat and the loss of length. The loss of length gives the macan a little "hot hatch" character with daily qualities. I like...
If you have a chance: Give it a try. My first Taycan (!) was equipped with standard sound. It was really annoying and my only "configuration mistake" on taycan nr.1. Never again, so i went for bose on taycan nr.2 and the macan.
I can not resist to mention the back with those fugly "exhaust pipe reminding chrome pieces", this is very subjective. But the charging curve is not...
+13% but sorry, was writing about my change from Taycan 4 S PB+ (about 84 kWh) to my Macan (95 kWh).
Whether you should have waited or not depends imho on your preferences. I would not want the Cayenne BEV or iX- I really like the "mix" of mid size SUVs. Of course only my 0,02 €....
Yes, numbers are not really realistic. After two Taycans i knew waht to expect and was not wrong. + about 13 % kWh means about + 13 % Range, still having the same driving profile.
A better comparison will be the cayenne BEV.
Would really agree that the choice depends on your preferences- for me the decision is crystal clear pro Macan (Turbo).
Can altough not fully agree concerning efficency: Of course The iX has a larger battery- this ends in a higher range. 108,6 kWh versus 95 kWh is a lot more.
Therefore i...
I would say it gives the whole car a handling plus. Cornering, parking and so on.
Imho a gamechanger comparing the macan with other "mid size suvs" concering (felt) agility.
In case of financiel limits i would cancel this:
