Shame there was no mention of the suspension and how the Macan clone drives and handles. Like 0-62 mph in 5.1 seconds (for the S model)? 248 hp with 273 # torque? I was ready to buy a new Macan back in December - but there weren't any 2019s available in US. It has only been the last 2 weeks that they are showing up on snooty dealer lots. In January, Porsche dealers were still pushing 2018 as if that was the latest model (with a price to reflect).
In 2018, the Porsche factory was shut down from April to September - a whopping 6 months. Supposedly so they could address reducing emission 50%. Maybe that's why Macan delay? I mean who introduces a 2019 car in Summer of 2019? Many new cars (2020) start to show up in October of 2019 so your new Macan is already a model-year-old?
The 2019 Macan starts at under $50k. Actually, that's $49,900 plus $1050 delivery. It is really easy to add options to make the Macan a $70k very compact CUV. Apparently, the engine is an Audi 4 cylinder.
The Zotye article says it differs from the Macan in that the Chinese clone has a roof rack - oops, the 2019 Macan now sports a roof rack!
