The production of Porsche: model "Macan". The Porsche "macan" 2014 – most interesting about the long-awaited German SUV

What's the first thing I would like to say about the model Macan? Porsche has released a new mid-size crossover manufactured by the world-renowned German company. Initially it was planned to call it something else – the Porsche Cajun. So, it is necessary to tell about this model because it was really expected.

About the history of the model Macan

The Porsche Macan in the line of “Porsche” became the second SUV. The first was, as you might guess, the Cayenne. World premiere of the brand new car was held in Los Angeles in 2013. Sales in Europe began in the beginning of the last, 2014. Earlier it was said that this car was supposed to chassis from its “relative” platform – the Audi Q5. However, in his design, the manufacturer decided to use more parts made of aluminum. Due to this decision turned out to make easier model Macan. Porsche was to weigh less as much as 130 kilograms. And given the fact that “Porsche” dimensions much more than the Audi Q5.

The Length of a car is 4675 mm, width – 1923. The wheelbase is the same size as Q5. Trunk volume is good – 500 litres. And can be increased three times (up to 1,500 l), if you fold back the rear row.

Exterior and interior

It is also an important caveat concerning the model Macan. Porsche has received a very original and interesting design. The aggressive front end immediately demonstrates the sporty character of this model. It is also impossible not to notice the sloping roof with heavily littered with back stand. Plus – narrow rear lights and side rear window, which have been greatly reduced.

The interior of the car was developed specifically for it. He is very special and unique. Its main feature is the “character”. The interior is in perfect harmony with the exterior of the car. Nevertheless, inside is full of space. In addition, it very comfortable. Due to the comfortable seats high quality and expertly crafted by the designers of the comfort, turned out to create a machine, which just does not want to go.
