Porsche Macan S Diesel review, test drive

Porsche says its new Macan, soon to be launched in India, is the ideal blend between a sportscar and an SUV. It certainly looks somewhat radical, sitting on a picturesque hillock on the outskirts of Nashik. What strikes me when I first walk up to it is the relatively modest size, the comparatively low slung stance and that rear hatch, that wouldn't look too out of place on a coupé or grand tourer. In fact, the Macan looks like a junior Cayenne. Viewed head on, the Macan looks like it’s ready to gobble up anything in front of it (for which it certainly has the pace) and it sure is going to look quite intimidating in your rear-view mirror too.
