Today, when we talk about acceleration, how can gasoline cars compare to electric cars? It seems that the performance of the latest Porsche Macan GTS for the test drive is not the focus, but the delicate texture of driving control and the flexibility and precision of cornering.

The price of the Macan GTS starts at 1.18 million yuan by no means cheap, but it is equipped with the strongest 440ps horsepower 2.9 V6 dual-turbo engine in the whole line, as well as a series of GTS-specific configurations, the performance can be said to be the highest in the same series. Ten additional accessories have been added to the model car (the floor price is close to 1.6 million yuan), among which the GTS Sport Package ($15,800 not including tax) is worth considering, including 21-inch tire treads, PTV+ torque distribution system, Sport Chrono package, special bucket seats and Interior and exterior accessories, etc.
The second modified version of the Macan is not very fresh, but this GTS version is flexible in steering and cornering, efficient in suspension and shock absorption, strong in tracking, and precise in driving feeling. It runs lively and lively like a two-door sports car, without the heavy inertia of an SUV. Although the engine is powerful and powerful, I am not as pleasantly surprised as the handling. The Macan GTS is a very complete and Porsche-like running SUV, but unfortunately it is not a popular electric car.
