Porsche's new and unreleased Macan suv is going to be crushing the performance of the Cayenne. Rumor has it that it will be better than the Cayenne!

Skeptical...considering the absurdness of the CTT performance.

Looks like a cayenne and a panamera got it on: 350HP predicted for the turbo version. If its the same weight as the Q5, then it will be 700lbs less then the current CTT @ 500 HP.

So the p2w ratios are - >>

1 : 11.7 for the Macan T

1 : 9.6 for the Cayenne TT

This by no way indicates final performance so the off-the-line perf may be better than the CTT, however, I think I would take the CTT in the 1/4.

Macan will get the PDK; should close the gap a little, but too much motor in the CTT. Will probably be able to scare an S/GTS...

Some serious p2w ratios. I am not crazy about who got the "big" numbers. Afterall, weight plays such a big role in performance. I'd much prefer lighter vehicle with moderate p2w ratios (i.e. even if Macan T has 9.6 p2w ratio or slightly lower, I'd take Macan).

I am also hoping for PDK as well despite how "great" current tips are in peppers.
