According to Porsche, the name Macan is derived from the Indonesian word for tiger & combines suppleness, power, fascination & dynamics which will be the core characteristics of this new SUV. The Macan is part of Porsche’s new model strategy known internally as “Strategy 2018”.
The Macan SUV will be manufactured in Porsche’s Saxony production line in Leipzig, Germany in 2013. This plant is being expanded into a fully fledged production unit including body assembly line & paint shop with an investment of 500 million Euros. This makes it one of the biggest building projects in Porsche’s corporate history. With this expansion, there will be an addition of 1,000 new jobs as well. The Macan will be the 5th model in Porsche line up & will be based on Audi Q5 which is manufactured red at Bratislava.
Porsche describes the Macan as an “entry model” & said it would “attract new & even younger customers to the premium brand along with the Boxster”; such a statement points to a starting price in the same as mid range Q5s. The Cajun’s engine options are likely to start with a four cylinder, turbocharged powerplant & include V6 petrol & diesel engines, plus a hybrid.

It is one of the well known vehicles in the market but don’t forget to make sure that you get the best quality at best price. Both the luxury vehicles and the affordable vehicles are gaining equal importance in the Indian market; this may be because even the middle class people are thinking of four wheelers these days. And getting one such SUV model as per our need and budget is not a big deal.
