Appearance

The 2023 Macan and the 2023 Cayenne are easy to tell apart on the road. The smaller Macan has a tapered roof with raked rear windows. Bold, black molding runs across the door panels. The teardrop LED headlights are combined with a single-unit, wraparound grille on the nose. The Cayenne is noticeably larger with a relatively flat roofline ending in a liftgate spoiler. The sides have lower-body molding with a crisp, horizontal accent running around the fenders and across the doors. The headlights have the same shape as the Macan’s headlights, and the wraparound grille is sectioned in three parts.

Equipment available in both models includes a Burmester or Bose sound system, automated parking, wireless smartphone charging, a panoramic sunroof, heated front and rear seats, leather and suede material, parking sensors, and more.
