Is the Porsche Macan AWD?

Yes.

All Porsche Macan models sold in Canada include All-Wheel Drive as standard. Porsche calls their AWD system Porsche Traction Management (PTM). This is a sensor-managed AWD system that’s rear-biased, but able to immediately transfer power to the Macan’s front axle when needed. In certain situations, the Macan’s PTM system can pre-emptively power all four wheels from a stop for enhanced bite on snow and ice, or vector drive torque across the axles to help use the AWD system to steer the vehicle.
