Spy photos of the 2014 Porsche Macan

What we have here is the new Porsche Macan. Our crafty spy shooters caught the vehicle testing in minimal camouflage. The new small SUV will go on sale late next year.

The project was known as the Cajun until February, when Porsche announced the new name and said that it is “derived from the Indonesian word for tiger and combines suppleness, power, fascination and dynamics.”

The Macan rides on the same platform as the Audi Q5 and will be built at the expanded Porsche plant in Leipzig, Germany.

The headlights, taillights and chrome strip toward the rear are stickers, Porsche's cheap camouflage. Differentiating it from the Cayenne, the Macan has a larger center grille, no creases on the hood, a sloped back and longer overhangs. The small ute also reportedly will use a four-cylinder engine, a Porsche first since the 968 went out of production.
