Macan 4 maneuver handling tests video (moose test)

Cool video. I'd love to see more. I especially want to see if the sport plus suspension settings would change the performance at all. Unfortunately it seems the model they tested didn't have it

Know what else would be cool.... If you could choose/change the color of the DRL's like the thumb for this video

What’s even better than these videos is actually attending autoX (or Driver Education) events - can do all that with our own cars!

Seriously, join PCA, go to local events - it’s a blast!

I did an autoX even ages ago with my TT. I assume i stopped going because i wanted get some upgrades before i got back out there.. N just never did

Seems tighter on mine in Sports+. Windy road = Sports+

yeah definitely. Sport Plus is what you want for the best handling. I just would love to see the side-by-side to see how much body roll is reduced with Sport plus.

I think the model they tested is also lacking RAS,it's pretty obvious especially in the slow motion part of the video where the rear wheels seem fixed rather than steering.There would definitely be way more better results in all tests if RAS and Sport+ mode was available.

RAS is noticeable in the U turn. At the bigining they mention RAS. Would PTV+ have much affect here?

Didn't pay attention to U turn...And I skipped the first part of the video all the way till the real testing starts.I think PTV+ would also have affected the results more positively.

It is mentioned in the video that it does have RAS and that that put the car in Sport+ mode for the test. But yes PTV+ likely would have made it better. Possible that the 4S and Turbo even without PTV+ could have done better due to the difference in how the rear motor is mounted compared to the 4 and different suspension tuning.

ohh good catch. selective hearing i guess. I thought they only said "sport"

We did a similar "moose" test, and a much simpler "obstacle course" as part of the delivery experience at PECLA last month (using a Macan Turbo.) Definitely fun and recommended.
