It's believed that Porsche will produce a GTS version of the new Macan. The model format works and has already proven with the Cayenne, Panamera, and 911. The features would include stiffer and lower suspension, sports exhaust, manual option, and likely power bump around 20hp. If production is given the green light, performance should be similar to the Turbo S with a modified turbocharged 3.6L V6 and 450hp. These rendering from 'Virtuel-car' provide an excellent example of perhaps an upcoming Macan GTS.
