The Germans officially presented the name of Cayenne’s younger brother, with the first draft and the first teaser, dedicated to the compact SUV. Porsche Cajun is history. The future compact SUV will not be named by the Germans as they said for a year. Germans from Porsche official release the name of their future compact SUV: Macan.

It will take place in the range just below the Porsche Cayenne, built on the platform of the Audi Q5. Totally different name for the product of Stuttgart has its origins in the Indonesian language, meaning “tiger”. It is clear identification of the basic characteristics of new cat cars: flexibility, agility and power.

According to officials of the mark, Macan will combine features of a sports car with the benefits of an SUV. It will be produced at the plant in Leipzig since 2013 and is part of the strategy for 2018, the Germans seek to broaden the range of models. The new facility will be built where Macan required an investment of 500 million and create 1,000 new jobs. With the machine name, Porsche unveiled the first official draft of it.

Although it is known that many details of the drawings are abandoned in series, there are few details about you will see, certainly in reality. Except silhouette could suffer a relative “softening”, front and rear lights inspired by the concept 918 Spyder, protruding bezel and very flared wheel arches will define the design of Macan. And yet you think would have been more appropriate name for the new Cajun Porsche SUV?

Like its predecessors, the new Porsche Boxster roadster is a compact two-seater with rear-wheel drive and six-cylinder boxer engine. In terms of appearance, the new Boxster shows a more refined sportiness and the front is close enough to the image of 911. However, more elongated headlights fail to clearly differentiate the 911 Boxster. At the rear, the Boxster’s rear lights are very elegant and voluptuous curves and huge air intakes on the sides make the car look very sexy, not just for Porsche enthusiasts.

The new Boxster is easier than the previous generation, and the wheelbase and track widths are increased (however, no information about size, yet). Obviously, the systems are upgraded machine, performance is better, and consumption is up to 15% less.

Roadster interior is generous for two occupants, and ergonomics and design of the dashboard are inspired by the Carrera GT. And powered roof is completely redesigned, with a better-looking cover under which the folds.
The new generation is offered in two engine versions: Boxster (2.7 liters and 265 hp) and Boxster S (3.4 liters and 315 hp). Standard gearbox is offered a 6-speed manual and optional automatic gearbox can choose 7-speed PDK dual-clutch.

Here are the first photos of the new Porsche 911 Cabriolet version, which will be officially shown to the public at the Auto Show Detroit 2012 early next year. As it was expected, changes from Porsche 911 Coupe of the main design elements doesn’t exist, the car is differentiated only by the fabric roof.

New Porsche 911 Cabriolet comes, however, with an innovation in the soft-top, which gives it a more elegant look, but has an important contribution in terms of aerodynamics. The hood, of the new Porsche 911 Cabriolet shows as would be equipped with a hardtop – thanks to new ideas patented by German engineers.

The top and rear retractable roofs panels are made of composite plastic, the final form is more uniform, and looks much different than a regular soft-top. In addition, Porsche engineers estimate that the soft-top will last much better than soft-top while the laminated fabric, from the previous 911 convertible.

The rear window glass is also unique because it is directly bonded with a special resin material’s soft-top, which eliminates the problems of soundproofing, waterproofing and wind turbulence. The structure that is placed using the soft-top magnesium, giving the roof a very low mass.

The time for convertible the new Porsche 911 Cabrio amounts to only 11 seconds, and the maneuver can be done and went up to a speed of 60 km / h. New 911 Cabriolet comes standard with a wind deflector and cap’s soft-top is higher than the previous 911 convertible, being better designed in terms of aerodynamics.

After you have seen here a Porsche Panamera with crocodile skin and gold at interior or if you have a look at the Cayenne proposed by TechArt for the Auto Show in Frankfurt, and your retinas have not suffered, then you will not have too problems with this Cayenne.

That does not mean in any case the tuners from Vorsteiner have created a monument of beauty through the changes proposed. They look only at the visual appearance and the package will provide up to the end of this year was called V-CT.

If you thought that the borders are not a problem for Cayenne, those from Vorsteiner wanted to change things up, so they added a spoiler that will scare the approximation of most of the edges of sidewalks. Strange grin grille remained unchanged, but air speakers received a new shape to be better off out.

Perhaps you have moved to profile giant eyes and white, and if you do that and the spirit of observation developed new thresholds have seen much more crude in comparison with a standard model.

Porsche Cayenne has not escaped even at the back. There appeared a speaker made of carbon fiber that was cut at the edges to allow the four tail pipes made from titanium to throw a lot of pollutants into the atmosphere. Would be planted on the boot lid spoiler said. V-CT package prices which they say that will be very aerodynamic have not been announced at this time.

According to a source, the vehicle should be available with four different engines including a hybrid. Like the 2011 Touareg Hybrid, recently introduced the new Cayenne will use a turbocharged 3.0-liter V6 (245kW) from Audi, together with an electric motor that develops 33kW. CO2 emissions could be reduced to below 200grames / km.
