When it comes to driving, there’s nothing as exhilarating as putting your foot to the floor and hearing the growl of a Porsche engine. But with great power comes a great responsibility, and safety is baked into the bones of the 2024 Porsche Macan. Here are just a handful of ways the Macan keeps its drivers safe on the road.
Safety First: The 2024 Porsche Macan’s 6 Advanced Safety Features
1. Porsche Traction Management
Whether it’s a gas powerplant or an all-electric one, every 2024 Macan is built on an all-wheel-drive drivetrain that distributes power across all four wheels. PTM keeps drivers safe whether they’re on- or off-road, using an electronically controlled multi-plate clutch to distribute drive force to the wheels with the most traction. That means better performance in adverse conditions.
2. Porsche Torque Vectoring Plus
Stability is crucial, especially when cornering. PTV Plus improves driving dynamics and stability by variably distributing the torque to the rear wheels and electronically controlled rear differential lock, helping maintain maximum grip when taking turns.
3. Flat Prevention (and Cure)
The standard Tire Pressure Monitoring System alerts you the moment pressure in the standard all-season tires drops below an acceptable threshold. Included tire sealing compound and an air compressor can help keep you rolling even after catching a flat, preventing prolonged roadside repairs or waits for assistance.
4. Adaptive Cruise Control
Integrated radar automatically monitors traffic around you and, with cruise control engaged, maintains a consistent distance from the vehicle in front of you, fully stopping the vehicle when needed. The cruise control system also comes with a speed limiter, preventing surprise downhill acceleration.
5. Collision Alerts
An audible warning alerts if you drift too close to another vehicle, while a series of visible, audible, and tactile warnings help prevent collisions when objects get too close. An integrated brake assist feature helps bring the vehicle to a stop sooner to prevent collisions.
6. Lane Keep Assist
Every driver’s attention drifts at one point or another across the many miles we travel. That’s why the Macan has a warning system to prevent drifting out of your lane, potentially averting accidents. Lane Change Assist monitors your blind spots and warns of vehicles approaching too quickly, making for smooth and safe lane changes.
