I have a number of questions regarding the spec.
Thanks in advance for your patience - and any advice!

Welcome!
I’m fairly new too, but already placed my Gen3 S order at the end of July. Also have received a lot of advice re. spec. Can give you my thoughts, depending on what your questions are.
Macan S arrived May’22.

I have ordered a Macan S gen 3, what real life fuel consumption can I expect to get? Would I be being optimistic with 25mpg overall?

I would certainly hope you get better than that, my GTS is probably around 30mpg

As a rough guide, I get 27-28 from my gen 2 Macan S. This is on mainly B road driving, with some town and some motorway. It is a different engine to the gen 3 however.

25 mpg doesn’t sound over optimistic. But of course it does depend on driving style - when you use the full performance, the mpg really plummets!

Over the first 4,500 miles 24.8 mpg with the 2.9 376bhp engine. Low of 19 :twisted: and high of 32 mpg. :o
