Had the opportunity to test drive a Macan Turbo today, very impressed with it. I sold my ‘23 Taycan CT 4S last October, and miss it. Question is for current Macan EV owners, would you buy again? What options are you mad you skipped? Lastly, is there enough rear seat leg room? I am 5’ 8”, my husband is 5’ 11” and we have tall kids (the 15 year old is already 5’ 9”), the kids managed in the Taycan ok, hoping for a bit more room in the Macan (it would not be used for road trips). Would be placing the order this coming fall or winter.

Hi, i’ve tested the Turbo and 4S. Love the extra horsepowers and handling of the Macan Turbo. The legroom in the backseat is not very impressive unfortunately. I am 194cm tall - headroom is ok, worse for the legs. Still - sold my Volvo XC90 and ordered the Macan Turbo to be delivered in may.

Love our Turbo. Would buy again. Would pick a higher quality leather package next time, we chose Black/Chalk which we love, but not as high quality leather as the higher prices options.

Is the quality different when going for full leather option?
I thought higher price was because you get more leather.
I've no personal experience of this, so it's good to know from those who have had both.

Only Club leather, I can imagine being different quality, though.

I would second this.... I don't have a turbo but a 4S. My only regret on my configuration was not getting the full leather package. I have the partial leather package one step up from the standard interior. It's not readily apparent from the configurator what really changes. I wish I had compared the two packages specifically in person at the dealer. I still love the car, but my only minor letdown. Personally, if I was trying to mitigate the cost, I would have downgraded from my 21 inch wheels back to 20s.

I love my Turbo, can’t think of anything I would rather have. It’s been trouble-free except for an annoying CarPlay connection problem that I was able to solve myself.

I had a friend who is 6’2” in the back and headroom was OK even with the panoramic sunroof that is standard in the US. Legroom could be better but really depends on how far back the front occupants move their seats.

My recommendation is to take the kids with you on a test drive to get their opinions.
