Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Porsche Macan as you will with the Volkswagen Taos, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.
Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Porsche Macan will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Volkswagen Taos, which has a much lower MSRP.
Dimensions
Since the Porsche Macan is much wider than the Volkswagen Taos, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging.
If you go with the Porsche Macan, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the Volkswagen Taos.
Handling
The Porsche Macan has a larger turning radius than the Volkswagen Taos, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.
Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Porsche Macan greatly out-muscles the Volkswagen Taos.
Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Porsche Macan does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Volkswagen Taos.
Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Porsche Macan and the Volkswagen Taos.
The Porsche Macan has significantly less cargo capacity than the Volkswagen Taos.
