The roster of models challenging the Porsche Macan grows annually. The German firm updated its smallest, most affordable SUV with a new engine, more tech features, and subtle design tweaks to keep it looking fresh. Digital Trends traveled to the island of Mallorca to find out what the changes mean on a winding road.

The base Macan starts at $49,900 before Porsche factors in a mandatory $1,050 destination charge. It’s the company’s most affordable model, but it comes well equipped with LED lighting, touchscreen-based navigation, parking sensors on both ends, and Alcantara upholstery in the middle of the seats. The Macan S carries a base price of $58,600 before that same destination charge enters the equation. It notably benefits from a more powerful V6 engine and correspondingly bigger brakes, among other performance-oriented upgrades.

Bigger is indeed better when it comes to infotainment technology. Every Macan now comes with a 10.9-inch screen that replaces the 7.2-inch unit in the outgoing model. It displays the latest generation of the Porsche Communication Management (PCM) infotainment system. The software contains a tremendous amount of information, putting it on paper would create a book thicker than the P-Zero tires’ sidewall and just as wide as the rims they’re wrapped around, but it’s not as daunting to navigate as it might sound.
The vertical menu on the left side of the screen provides quick, easy access to commonly-used functions like the internet-connected navigation, media and phone options, as well as car settings. The software responds to input almost immediately, it doesn’t stop and think about each command, and the resolution is excellent. The main menu is customizable, too. The Macan is gifted with one of the better infotainment systems in its segment, and we can’t say we’re surprised. We came to the same conclusion after driving the Cayenne and the Panamera.
