From Shanghai to San Francisco, today’s car buyers -- including a majority of enthusiasts -- prefer four (or more) seats to two. Throw in all-wheel drive, and you’ve got a hot commodity. Porsche put two and two (usable seats) together in its Cayenne SUV, followed by the Panamera sedan. Now, with the smaller Macan SUV, a company once known exclusively for sports cars may see four- or five-seaters account for a boggling 75 percent of its soaring international sales. Buoyed by a projected yearly run of 50,000 Macans, Porsche expects to set a global sales record of more than 200,000 units in 2015, up from just 162,000 last year. Porsche’s triumph of comfort and capitalism traces to a former communist stronghold in eastern Germany, where a € 500 million expansion (about $687 million) of the Leipzig facility plunks the Macan on the same flexible assembly line as the Cayenne and Panamera. Parading undressed prior to assembly, the Macan reveals aluminum underwear from the Audi Q5, right down to Audi rings stamped on some components. But Porsche emphasizes that two-thirds of the Macan’s parts are entirely new, including all the biggies: body panels, engines, suspension, interior, and all-wheel-drive system. The Macan feels hyper-engineered to improve on both the Q5 and the Cayenne, largely as you’d expect. Lower, 6.5 inches shorter, and up to 500 pounds lighter than a Cayenne GTS, the Macan feels quicker and more agile, less like a bull run amok. Yet it’s fancier and more forcefully dynamic than even the 354-horsepower Audi SQ5. Inevitably, the Macan is more expensive than any Q5, especially the Turbo model, whose 400-hp, 3.6-liter biturbo blast requires a $73,295 ante. You may be looking at the world’s sharpest-handling SUV, but you’re also looking at the world’s only compact crossover that will top $90,000 with a schmear of options.
