The only 1 hour car review channel i would watch

[@autogefuehl]

+tokekkk 👏🚘🎬

[@jakeblack5712]

I agree very in depth and detailed. If you are trying to decide which car to buy these reviews are excellent. He looks at the details just as I would. Perfect.

[@sinimini]

Same here.

[@user-xf4mn5lr8b]

dun be so snoby. hell from Rusia

[@byronohene-adu5104]

Been waiting for this review for ages! Thanks Autogefuehl!

[@tacosr]

I love everything abut the Macan. Nobody makes compact SUVs like Porsche.

[@FFKonFire]

***Tata Mobile Has Entered The Chat***

[@jamescostaras2157]

Love your reviews, your voice is so soothing as well. Actually very calming to watch. Great Vids!

[@autogefuehl]

thanks a lot!

[@SSvan0]

The perfect ASMR channel especially if a german woman was doing all the talking

[@xtaylorxboyx]

I really loved your review of the GTSMacan. Usually I would never watch a hour worth of car reviews but your accent and calming voice is very relaxing so I enjoyed this a lot.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks! Join more of our reviews :)

[@fhkazm]

Great review Thomas. I recently purchased a 2017 Macan GTS to go along with my 2015 Cayman GTS. Without a doubt, these are the finest vehicles I have owned in my lifetime. I really look forward to my daily commute to work in these phenomenal vehicles and enjoy every minute I spend behind the wheel in them. I am a huge fan of the GTS trim level and performance. I never thought I would like the black rims, but they have grown on me and I think they give the vehicles a more exotic and modern appearance. The air suspension, when lowered with the sport plus feature activated provides nothing less than an exceptionally exhilarating ride. But when I feel like driving in a more relaxed manner, the normal setting provides a beautifully smooth yet responsive ride. So in conclusion, I love these amazing vehicles, and Autogefuhl as well. Best wishes from across the pond.

[@OldVillain]

Great review Thomas with so much detail and you own observations, which is why Autogefühl is more enjoyable that BBC's Top Gear!

[@autogefuehl]

we really appreciate this

[@gordonbennett6057]

I agree entirely, OldVillain - Autogefühl is by FAR the best for car enthusiasts, and car-nuts.

[@chrisfoster5098]

Thanks for your in depth review thomas looking at getting one .... hopefully!!

[@aaddiction7294]

So calming review. Thank you.

[@mreddieotis]

Thomas-Very well done review.Packed with lots of comparative information to help one be well informed. Thanks for doing such quality work...

[@autogefuehl]

thanks m8 !

[@Pepelu22]

Great! I like all the reviews from Autogefühl and Thomas, even if I don't like the car model reviewed. Great job.

[@steveturner6192]

1hr of the best review I ever saw - truly brilliant

[@autogefuehl]

😎👌👌 please recommend!

[@ianboulton245]

Great Review. Than you very much. This has helped me to choose the GTS and it is now ordered. I agree with you on the black wheels !!

[@MatthewGaither]

This is the first review that I have watched from Autogefuhl and I really found it useful and enjoyable. Thanks for the great work!

[@autogefuehl]

great to have u with us now !

[@eliotsalandybrown]

Thanks for your calm and comprehensive review Thomas!

[@autogefuehl]

You made another very thorough review. Great one, Thomas!

[@autogefuehl]

[@Rcschim]

Really nice one! First I thought 1h video? come on... but in the end we ended up watching almost all of it (with some minor skipping). great car as well!

[@autogefuehl]

awesome, join more of our reviews :)

[@strider8890]

Best review as always Thomas😎

[@daide6039]

[@ricardorobinson3166]

Very great review great details keep up the work

[@Miotrix]

Very nice review again! Good job and great car!!!

[@recanterc7754]

Another excellent review! Very informative, thanks for the upload. 😀

[@autogefuehl]

thanks buddy!

[@timmyjan]

i love this channel :D great work keep it up

[@autogefuehl]

hehe, we look forward to further comments from you!

[@Lt.Mingus69]

Another fantastic car review...I love these GTS versions Porsche puts out, the best choice I think when choosing one. The new 911 GTS is lust worthy. Thanks Autogefühl, excellent work.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks keep joining us!

[@Frenglish007]

Great and very detailed review. I received my Macan GTS 2 weeks ago and love it. I opted for the Carmine red with interior leather and red stitching. I always drive on Sport +, the wife uses Sport. We don't ever drive non sport, too boring. We love all of our sport cars, this one fits in perfectly. Cheers

[@autogefuehl]

cheers!

[@walterd7331]

Another great review!

[@jonathangray1507]

Thomas, excellent review - thank you. When will you review the GLC 43?

[@stephenlane9127]

Another great review Thomas! Glad you're sticking with the English too! Thank you. Great channel and great informative content! Well done.

[@autogefuehl]

appreciated! Join us for more :)

[@stephenlane9127]

Autogefühl definitely will 👍

[@fadelbahri]

you review is very well detailed , thank you for your effort

[@autogefuehl]

thanks, stay subbed and join us for more videos!

[@gregorytrane7828]

I'm really leaning toward the Macan after years of owning BMW in all it's configurations. I feel Porsche is still more Germanic than BMW, these days with the BMW business model favoring a more American design, in terms of weight, gadgets and comfort over sports agility, handling and sports car fun. The build quality seems to be a little better than BMW as well. Porsche for me, seems to be winning the day.

[@tvieso]

Gregory Trane Same. I'm on BMW #3 and about to switch.

[@sholaesq]

So did you switch to Porsche? I'm about to do the same after 23 years with BMW.

[@skillsessions8547]

Nice review and quite a coincidence as I was just thinking about what is the best compact SUV atm.

[@evilras]

Great insight to the car! Thank you!

[@autogefuehl]

thanks, keep following autogefuehl!

[@arisporrazzo4268]

Great review, thank you

[@sbfhawk4343]

Good Review Ill do my own on the Porsche Macan I just bought. Its pretty fitted with everything you can think of and its pretty dang fast for a SUV. I mean its worth its price.

[@drive300yds4]

Fantastic review with excellent detail. Well done

[@autogefuehl]

+drive300yds 👏👏

[@bak2mb]

Excellent Excellent review!!!

[@bucketoftruthify]

Great video with lots of small details. Rechts fahren! Wow, a pickup truck in Germany! That was like a unicorn back in the 80's.

[@marcussoori]

Hello Thomas, once again a great long video! You are my favorite reviewer because you don't rush or leave out details, and you review all the real world aspects of each car rather than just drifting on track. Will you be doing a similar review of the Lotus Evora 400 automatic soon? There are not enough reviews online for this amazing car!

[@autogefuehl]

+Marcus Soori thx marcus! Lotus doesnt have a press fleet sorry

[@gordonbennett6057]

Superb detail in the Review - again. Fantastic format. You've been busy. Many thanks. You ask our opinion? My opinion: just like yours Thomas, I like the exterior rear profile. I like the integrated centre display. And interesting centre console. I prefer a bright, or light coloured interior, giving an airy feel to an SUV's spacious interior. I agree with Thomas's views about AEB. Superb sound this car makes. Performance impressive: on Thomas's autobahn section, this Macan did 80-200 km/h in approx 14 sec. In your recent Tiguan 240ps Review, Tiguan did 80-200 km/h in approx 25 sec! However, Macan is typically "very expensive-Porsche". And we'll also have to wait for the new Q3, and new Q5 (and new X3)... I also agree with Thomas that a "full-spec" Tiguan surprisingly represents good value compared with these cars, and has all the equipment... (I guess, normally you don't compare a Porsche with a VW, but it was mentioned...!).

[@grrwuff4099]

..."full HD, full screen and full length, let's go"("-s go-" is actually from the lisence plate!!!)... Just love your intros, Thomas, makes my day ;o) Keep up the good work...

[@autogefuehl]

:-)

[@pasquale78]

All Porsche press models have a license plate that has 'go' in it.

[@jeffreykillicoat4541]

We done Thomas,excellent review as always,the macan could be getting very close to the ultimate car as it seems to cover so many Bases,sport,s.u.v, small enough it City,I can't really see improvement in any area ,maybe the biggest weak spots are low roofline at rear(I love a sunroof) and the MPG is frightening,this has got to be the number one site for car reviews,keep up the good work,Jeff

[@autogefuehl]

+Jeffrey Killicoat 👏🚘

[@Alby911]

Dark rims for dark colors makes more sense, as it gives the car a more stealthier and uniform design, imo. Contrasting colors work fine for the smaller items such as brake calipers. Great review once again.

[@steeple001]

A very thorough review, thank you for taking the time to make this very useful video. My wife test drove the Macan GTS this week and its a very capable solid car indeed, the car was extremely comfortable and as expected the handling was superior to both the BMW and the Mercedes equivalents we have driven. The only gripe my wife had was the rear view Mirror as per the reviewers comments. I would also add that because the car is so planted and even with the sports exhaust switched on, it seemed impossible to tell how fast you were actually going. If you ever get the opportunity would it be possible to review the Macan Turbo ? Great Job

[@autogefuehl]

Turbo just went online Steven - enjoy :)

[@jimmy.christian]

I love those buttons, feels like I'm in the jet fighter :D

[@joachimmagnusson3128]

Nice review! And now the GLC C43 please.

[@decemberelf]

Oh wow, my favourite car brand and the most beautiful sporty sedan! Could this be even more exciting? Of course - with 911 TechArt models review, but to each their own, and branvo Thomas, bravo!

[@jimmy.christian]

This aint sedan mate :D

[@decemberelf]

Oh, right, I mean SUV

[@jamieosh70]

Love the very lengthy, detailed and very German review. Refreshing compared to the short attention span usual fluff. Great stuff.

[@autogefuehl]

thank you very much!

[@drew9312]

Spot on questions at the start yet again Thomas. I also prefer silver over black alloys. Slightly too many centre console buttons but premium interior and SUV overall. L/100km not great. 34.28: "it's quite hard to (accelerate) in this traffic... oh well, whatever..." (accelerates)- enjoyed that!

[@teamsalvation]

Love this ride!! The macan is just a perfect mix for the family man...not too big but big enough for the family duties.

[@tei1847]

My dream car, in every way after 6 years in the market.... I gonna have one of these GTS one day. 😉

[@Only-one-life-68]

Must agree with other people's comments Thomas really is one of the very best at reviewing vehicles. I watched it all including the ads except the Volvo ad.. Also watching them in there full state allows him to get his money of the advertisements

[@autogefuehl]

thanks man always great to have u here!

[@dell4759]

Thank you Thomas, very informative and interesting video. I was thinking the Carrera s or 4s are the sporty comfortable choices from 911 lineup. The Macan now looks like it will be the alternative choice.

[@ced5960]

Very cool car. Love this dark grey, and this black interior is awesome. I'm not so fan of these wheels. Panoramic roof available ?? Nice review !!

[@waydenpatten2425]

@Autogefühl, Great review as always. Thanks for taking the time to go into so much detail. When will you have the 2.0 Litre Macan Review? I live in Germany and I am now thinking about the Macan but as I am doing city traffic everyday, I cannot justify the Macan S. I am really looking forward to your comment. Thanks Wayden

[@autogefuehl]

just aired m8 =)

[@user-gr7vr2fe2y]

Thomas, nice review, try to make more video like on 55 minute, when you show moving car from outside - thank you.

[@MrMustangrick]

Great review Thomas ! On my list for my next car to replace my Lexus GS 350.

[@autogefuehl]

+MrMustangrick 👌

[@stuartthurston3607]

Great review as always, 2018 facelift being ordered when book open!

[@autogefuehl]

thanks stuart! try to get fabric or alcantara seats

[@stuartthurston3607]

Autogefühl definitely! Have you heard any news that they might release a hybrid? Thanks again!!

[@TechTrader108]

Beautiful video.......Description as precise as Germans possibly can be......Thank you.....

[@isaiahdeshazier1520]

first! YeY Thomas you are back!! great video!

[@ABusLux]

Nice And comprehensive review as usual. I'm loving my GTS, so I agree with your conclusions. A couple of points: I don't think the car you tested had the optional insulating glass; it's just that the cabin is that quiet in the Macan (a bit too quiet, perhaps). The standard 8-way GTS seats are snug, but you can equip the car with the 18-way sport cars that where you can open (or close) the side bolsters some more but still maintain the sporty feel, or for more comfort you can even select the 14-way comfort seats that are standard on the Macan S. About how often GTS owners use the Sport button... well, every single day, even if it's just for a couple of minutes; it's just too much fun to pass on it! Great reviews; keep it up.

[@autogefuehl]

=) thx for the feedback !

[@christopherxavier9987]

Thomas - A car review more than 15 minutes is like watching a full fledged movie. Thou I love your channel, it is tiring to sit through 30-40 minutes and sometimes 1 hour. You seriously need to cut down like most other car review channels. And at times I am not sure whether its the love of the car or it self obsession of seeing one self on camera that makes you do these long videos. And am sure I am not the only one who feels your reviews are one of the longest or maybe the only channel that does such lengthy videos.

[@autogefuehl]

try speed 1.25

[@philipwatkins8157]

Based on your review I bought one! With ALL options except tow-bar, roof rails and ventilated seats. Torque Vectoring & air suspension amazing and as for the 14-way seats, well they don't get any better. Does it drink fuel, just a bit!!!!! Handling, as you said, amazing and can probably keep-up with anything with 4 wheels on a twsiting and winding road. Clearly the acceleration isn't as quick but it's more than enough for most. Great review and very accurate.

[@autogefuehl]

Thanks and enjoy 😉

[@TeslaOG]

Most Macan owners believe they have Torque Vectoring Plus and they don’t. Dealers tell them it does only to realize 99% of Macans don’t have have it on the build sheet - especially in the USA. Right now there is 1 pre-owned Macan for sale in the entire country with it. But it doesn’t have Nav, Connect or Connect Plus. Expensive waste of an option that wears thorough brakes twice as fast. I think they are more fun without the PTV+ and I’ve owned one with and without it. My present GTS doesn’t have it, but it has every other option.

[@mannyechaluce3814]

Very detailed :D as they say in America "You can sell me the Bay Bridge", that is a compliment of course :D Good job

[@autogefuehl]

+Manny Echaluce 👍

[@nortropsteiner9506]

Full HD, Full Screen and Full Lenght let's go !!! Thomas is a great driver. 56:00 I would like to see a more aggressive look from Porsche.

[@caraddicted6794]

Overall the best, sporty SUV in this segment with a really good sound!! The GTS-models are the best choice for everyday use and sportiness in the Porsche segment and they look really fantastic with it´s decent black elements!! I really like these black wheels ;) Great job as always, Thomas !

[@autogefuehl]

+car addicted 👍

[@SpartanEx7]

Great review Thomas, I love your autobahn culture talks ( 35:10 )

[@autogefuehl]

:>

[@turbasammal]

I do get the Amarok driver - Thomas is blocking the left lane basically the whole time. I find it a little bit funny, that he talks about how furious those Autobahn drivers are, when he really is one of those bullies...

[@filipinotnoir2956]

German logic humor, "Jaguar vs tiger....(chuckles). Nice one." I love it. 😂

[@autogefuehl]

=)

[@kaushikmanna4645]

Good review as always, Thomas- do a review of BMW i8, it's my favourite sports hybrid car.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks, we ll try !

[@PashaDefragzor]

Oh this is looks awesome

[@jansingh9680]

Trully appreciate your honest to detail reviews Thomas , so much more better and honest then many asian car journalist, who tend to sound more like car salesman, to them everything seems to be perfect, fantastic.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks so much, spread the word for us !

[@jansingh9680]

gladly and surely.

[@drew9312]

34.28: "it's quite hard to (accelerate) in this traffic... oh well, whatever..." (accelerates)- enjoyed that!

Awesome review

[@autogefuehl]

+Hans Kenneth Tan thanks!!

[@lesthom60]

hi Thomas, the hood reminds me of my Ferrari 456GT, the same with its front end, great review, the engine is very powerful , for a 3ltr, compared to my 928 gts. its only 350bhp for 5.4 ltr, how far we have come in twenty odd yrs, keep up the good work, love your reviews. Les.

[@autogefuehl]

thanks for the feedback, keep supporting us!

[@btpp12]

At least 3-4 times a week I put it to sport plus mode. Always put a smile on my face

[@andyb4874]

Did you have the std steering or the PS+ version and what are your thoughts on the two ?

[@joshjenkins2090]

What a beautiful color

[@Tizianv]

Great video!

[@autogefuehl]

thank you!

[@dkvikingkd233]

love this car - hope I can afford it some day:)

[@yupa2680]

red color and black wheels would fit this car because you cant see any curves but great review as always Thomas :) keep up the good work and btw those buttons in interior definitely need to go just wait for facelift :P

[@autogefuehl]

thanks buddy!

[@Lerxstification]

Hi Thomas, again, awesome review. Had to come back to watch it over and over for great information. One more question: Do you think that the "sport Plus" option with Chrono is worth the $1500? In reality, would 'regular' Sport mode normally be sufficient? --many thanks!

[@autogefuehl]

+Lerxstification cheers! Not worth.

[@philipwatkins8157]

As always, excellent review. You've sold me the GTS but I will have to assess the MPG & cost and perhaps consider a high specified diesel S. I currently have a very highly spec'd A4 Allroad (3.0tdi & 272 HP) with £20k of extras (which I love and have got used to now) but it just doesn't meet the mark in terms of sporty handling and I have not found anyone to upgrade the suspension hence looking at this Macan

[@autogefuehl]

Cheers Philip! Have you also seen our facelift review? kzbin.info/www/bejne/hX-Yc2ywqrqWe7c

[@nedmihai008]

Is the car on sport setup while driving in the city? The suspension seems very rigid. From the camera movement seems it does not go very well over bumps in the road.

[@abhinavmi1]

Does Porsche have the HUD as well ? I could not find the same on the web. Also is there a url you could share where I could find the dimensions such as head room, leg room details

[@ptptt]

I love your detail introducing, I love german car....

[@autogefuehl]

appreciated!

[@ptptt]

:)

[@Abhiman9596]

great review as always....in hindi macan means house.

[@name-gt2qz]

please may you review on the chatenet ch30 and the sporteevo please :)

[@species-xo4tz]

nice review

[@autogefuehl]

+species5618 👍

[@sccphilly]

Thanks for your great videos! I like your candid honest evaluation of the vehicle which is your best trait in my opinion. I have a couple questions for you. What kind of car do you drive? And would you buy a Mercedes-Benz c43 sedan/coupe or Porsche Macan gts?

[@autogefuehl]

cheers! Both nice cars for sure. You can compare the GLC 43 here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gWbCd4qJppuVsKs C43 Facelift here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aWG8iWlvhMZkfK8

[@IkarusComplexx]

Great review Thomas! You are right bright wheels like the old Y BBS alloy wheels are timeless and perfect. For the price, I would go with the 2.0 turbo. Interior could get a refresh using the new Panamera design and getting rid of a lot of buttons. Otherwise an amazing car with an aggressive design.

[@stefanf.1158]

Testet Ihr auch mal den C43 AMG mit Performance-Abgasanlage? Schöne Grüße und weiter so!

[@ABDIYARE27]

I have just one like that, love it

[@bobmuller6547]

ABDIYARE27 Question... How is the Head room and Leg room for the driver ?? Thanks in Advance

[@fkporsche1]

Which suspension mode would you preferred?? I preferred the normal and sometimes in sport mode. Road secure feel is best in a German engineered car. Btw, I feel the Mercedes has the safer secure feel when I sat in my brother's GL. The the seat belt tighten a bit once you have the seat belt on you. I have the normal mode at most time. I love Porsche brand. I had a couple of 991's. Now I am keeping my 2011 GT3RS for now. Tell me when it is a good time to sell my RS?! Give me your input.

[@AndrewReilly]

my mom just got a new glc 4matic, although not as fast as this car, she doesn't need the extra speed or stiffer suspension. Also in my opinion the interior in the glc is far more luxurious than anything else in the segment

[@marsanjoon]

Black wheels are fine but my favorite Porsche offering is Platinum. Not bright but not too dark either.

[@ramen9996]

still love dark wheels, and GTS red on top, sooooo good.

[@andrewqiu3897]

great review as always. which one would u choose for a fast family car, macan gts or s4 avant?

[@autogefuehl]

Both good picks, depends on if you prefer the SUV feeling
