Porsche has been nice enough to provide the public with these teaser images of the Macan ahead of its LA Auto Show Debut. I am left wanting more however, mostly because the fact that the teaser images show little of the tail end of the Macan and that is the one part of the car that I am unsure of what it looks like.

With all these photos of the Macan off-road, it seems like that will be one area Porsche has focused a lot on, maybe we'll see some promo's related to the Macan going off-road?

Seems like there are two versions of the backend at least for the test mules. Tag on the door and tag on the bumper. I am up for the tag on door. Makes the car look chunky.

Good eye, now that im giving it all a closer look, its like this with the front ends.
We could be looking at a few Macan models here, i know theres a Macan Turbo S here.

mini Cayenne. just the way everyone expected.

If they mean for the Macan to be able to go off-road does that mean that it will have AWD and a driving mode for going off-road? I didn't really expect that the Macan would be for off-roading.

That is the word on the street about it...

i never realized how strange the back of a cayenne/macan looks without the badges. such an odd look.

Macan is not going to loko like that in the back. These teasers are essentially the same cars we have been seeing in the spy shots for months. They still have the stickers for head and tail lights. Why do you think Porsche was so liberal with the teasers....

they're doing a great job at fooling people with the tail lights, just look at these tail lights in the drawing and judge for yourself what will be in the production model

 

[macnuts]

so you are telling me this isn't the rear end of the macan?

yea thats what I'm thinking too, the 911 esque tails do the Macan much more justice then the bulgy ones transplanted from Cayenne. It should give the Macan a sleeker appearance. I'm still holding hope for a full light bar across the back...

[macnuts]

where are those photos from?

so the photos we've seen so far are just test mules correct?

 

[MacanMan]

the lastest spy video of a Macan in Dubai shows it taking off from a stand still and you can see it's brake lights light up, there's a 'c' shape going on and does seem to be consistent with the drawing on page two.

Yeah these tailight would look more proportional on the macan. The bulgy round ones throws off the looks.

 

[macnuts]

that makes sense.

and this whole time I thought those were actually the rear tail lights.. silly me,

 

[Bertuzzi]

Yep they are on there just to cover up, taillight camo lol
