The 2015 [Porsche](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/porsche-allelectric-macan) Macan Turbo has been newly designed with a turbo-charged speed. This model features a 3.6-liter twin-turbocharged [V6](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2024-lexus-gx) engine producing 400 hp at 6000 rpm. The power has been achieved thanks to the turbochargers' running boost pressure of 17.4 psi. Therefore, the SUV will sprint from 0 to 96 km/h in just 4.6 seconds and a top speed of 263 km/h.

There is no doubt that its impeccable speed has made a striking comeback to provide the [fastest SUV possible](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/2026-kia-sportage). The Sport Chrono package includes a 0-96 km/h sprint drops to 4.4 seconds. The 2015 Porsche Macan Turbo definitely makes an entrance with its fastest speed yet at the 2014 NAIAS that focuses on an incredible steering control.
