Porsche has officially teased its new 2014 Macan before its official debut at the 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show.
Porsche believes the new Macan has "defining facial features" like "a dynamic front with characteristic headlights." The vehicle will also have all-wheel drive and raised seating.
"The large air intakes are just waiting to inhale life," Porsche said. "The side profile is sharply contoured by the sporty sloping roof line. With improved aerodynamic quality. Our designers call it the Porsche flyline."
No powertrain details have been released as of press time, but there is rumors that the base Macan will be equipped with a four-cylinder engine.
Porsche will offer a pair of new 290-horsepower 3.0-liter V6 engines and 350-hp twin-turbo engine.
Porsche's seven-speed PDK automated dual-clutch manual is likely to be the only available transmission, according to the German automaker.
The automaker isn't calling the vehicle a luxury crossover SUV, but a sports car with "five doors and five seats."
"We've built what we always build: a sports car," Porsche said. "Five doors, five seats and yet intimate with the road."
The Macan will go on sale in the spring.
