Used Porsche Macan: the years to buy and the years to skip
Every Porsche Macan from 2015 to 2025: what each year typically sells for (about $21,500 to $57,500), its crash rating, and whether it's a year to target or skip. The best bets are 2015–2016, 2018–2025. Look harder at or skip 2017.

Years to target: 2015–2016, 2018–2025. Look harder at or skip: 2017. It has a strong reliability record.

Worth knowing
- 2017: owner complaints spike (63, mostly the airbags).
- The rear seat and cargo area are small for the class, and brakes, tires and servicing cost more than typical compacts.
- It requires premium fuel.
The trim we'd park in our garage
Look for the Macan S: its twin-turbo V6 is much stronger than the base four-cylinder offered from 2017; check options closely, since heated seats and adaptive cruise were often extra.
