But this is perhaps basic version Macan model , what is with version Macan S or Macan Turbo

They are made on the same platform

I'm confident the Macan will be a sweet ride. If they were bringing a diesel version stateside I might have held off on my TDI even. But here's the rub. While I know prices are not official, I guarantee it will cost a significant premium over a comparable Q5. That's just how Porsche rolls. Obviously whether it is worth that premium is entirely subjective. But to be honest, in this class, I'm not looking for gilded-age luxury or sports car reflexes. I'm looking for the sweet spot of comfort, practicality, fun-to-drive, and value. Once you start pushing much past $50k you start to leave that sweet spot, at least imho, and I'm guessing the fast Macans will live well north of $60k.

With these big wheels? Doubt it.

In these pictures Q5 has 18 "wheels, and according to data Macan will be sold with 20" and 21" wheels

Porsche has never presented the first model S or Turbo and afterwards base model
