Best Compact Luxury SUV Resale Value: 2020 Porsche Macan

Predicted Resale Value After 5 Years of Ownership: 40.5%

BRVA-best-resale-value-awards-logo-240Owning this category since 2016, the 2020 Porsche Macan is again winner of the best luxury compact crossover SUV, boosted not only by its tremendous performance, but also because of Porsche’s attention to detail in keeping this sporty SUV fresh. The Macan’s contemporary design and outstanding road manners are key to its ability to return high resale value.

This model is Porsche’s best-selling vehicle by far and its popularity is another element that helps to slow depreciation. Besides delivering value, the Macan is entertaining to drive with a 248-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine on base models, a more potent 348-horsepower 2.9-liter V6 under the hood of S models or the recently introduced Turbo that squeezes 434 horsepower out of that V6. Performance ranges from 6.3-second 0-60 mph acceleration in the base model to 4.3 seconds in the Turbo on the way to a 167 mph top speed. All configurations use Porsche’s 7-speed PDK dual-clutch automatic transmission with all-wheel drive.

Definitely emphasizing the sport in sport-utility vehicle, the 2020 Porsche Macan is more of a tall sports car that has plenty of utility rather than a torquey off-road basher. In addition to its impeccable road manners, the Macan also delivers a healthy dollop of luxury that befits a vehicle that starts at about $50,000 and can range up to the $83,600 commanded by the Turbo. Among the amenities you can expect are a 10.9-inch infotainment touchscreen as well as the availability high quality leather upholstery and premium audio systems from Bose and Burmester.

Its timeless design, wide range of performance options and a solid resale value that exceeds 40 percent after five years of ownership add up to a vehicle that is fast, fun and wears a badge of which you can be proud. As a category winner in this year’s Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, the 2020 Porsche Macan remains a formidable force in the compact luxury SUV segment.
