It seems like carmakers got so used to spy shots they’ve begun releasing their own ‘official sets’ of stolen images. What we have here is in fact a bunch of offcial images released by legendary German manufacturer Porsche and starring the upcoming 2014 Porsche Macan, a new SUV that share the same architecture with the Audi Q5 and will position itself right below the Cayenne. The model will be officially unveiled in November at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show.
Actually, mules of the Porsche Macan have been spotted around so many times in the past few months that they probably thought they could do a much better service to the cause by releasing their own pics, rather than crying over spilt milk. They even uploaded a few of them on their official facebook page, and since we are looking at clear pictures in high-res, talking about teasing images would feel a little out of place here.
The Porsche guys have been much more sketchy on the details concerning mechanics and performance figures: all we get to know for now is that the new baby Cayenne will boast a combined fuel consumption in accordance with EU 6 standards, 9.2-6.1 l/100km, and CO2 emission of 216-159 g/km. Which doesn’t say much, really, but we will surely get to know all the specs in a matter of weeks, if not days. However, rumor has it that it will eventually hit the markets with two twin-turbo V6 engine options: a 3.0- and 3.6-liter. We expect an 8-speed PDK automatic gearbox to be part of the mix as well, with a six-speed manual transmission option too. The Macan will show up in a Porsche dealership near you at some point in the first half of 2014.
