The annual SEMA tuning exhibition opened in Las Vegas this week, where automakers and various companies presented various car modification projects. One of them was the unusual Porsche Macan crossover, which was converted into a drift car, Carscoops reported on November 7.

The modification of the Porsche Macan was presented by the American company FCP Euro, specializing in auto parts, the Canadian TSH Auto repair shop was engaged in the conversion of the crossover, and it took one year to work.

The project was named Drift Macan. This crossover is externally distinguished by a white-green coloring, a sports body kit, an understated fit and Rotiform discs, which are mounted on the front axle with a large negative camber. In the cabin, many trim details have been dismantled to reduce weight, there are four bucket seats, a safety frame, a racing steering wheel with a quick-release mechanism, a hydraulic handbrake and a special control panel.

The factory V6 engine has given way to a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 from the 2014 Audi RS7, which, after modification, develops more than 600 hp. Thrust is transmitted to the rear axle through a modified eight-speed ZF gearbox. Next year, the Drift Macan is planned to be used as a drift taxi at various events.
