If you don't already have trailer wiring for your 2015 Porsche Macan S, you can use the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness w/ 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector and Installation Kit # 119250KIT.
This wiring harness will not require you to cut or splice into your factory wiring, but will just simply plug in line with your harness, and provide your vehicle with a 4-pole trailer connector.
Finally, you're going to need a ball mount. What you'll want to do is measure the rise and drop needed for your Airstream, and choose a ball mount according to your needs.
For example, if you needed 2-3/4" of rise, or 4" of drop you could use # EBMK4 to accomplish that.
Since your trailer has brakes, I recommend adding a add a 7-way # ETBC7, so you can add a brake controller # 90885.
I have included a FAQ on how you can find your rise and drop, as well as a couple of review videos.
