Not sure if their prediction is any more accurate than anyone elses, but maybe worth waiting if considering a new order, with deliveries starting in September.
Macan GTS - Mar 17 to Jan 23
Macan SD - Apr 16 to Mar 17

Don't think there's anything new shown or described, as you suggest. The pics are the ones we've seen before and the video is just a moving version. As the mag would be put to bed running up to Christmas it looks like a typical holiday filler.

Doesn't look like much of a change - won't be rushing out to pay my deposit. :D

No mention of a Diesel engine within that write up? But a link to a Cayenne diesel ban in Germany since July, which also mentions the Macan. I do hope us SD drivers aren't being stitched up for the long term?

I think you will find we have already have been :-)

Just enjoy the car for what it is, with the mileage I am doing the SD is still the best engine for the car.

What's interesting if it's true is that it will include Android Auto. If so, I wonder if they'll make it available for earlier models.

My take on that is simply that VW group's - and Porsche's in particular - future diesel strategy is still under detailed discussion. So easiest not to mention it for the time being and until much closer to availability. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

What sort of stitch up?
Macan SD Vocano Grey. LEDs, Pano Roof, PSE, Sports Chrono, PASM, Sports Design Mirrors, 21" Sports Classics in Black, lots of other extras.

Well, if they just abandon diesels overnight, rather than phase them out over a decade or more, we will be sat holding some very low value metal. Not so much stitched up, as dumped on, I guess?

On the contrary, personally if that happened I think the price of SD’s would rise...
