All three generations share the same wheelbase as the Touareg and Q7. Obviously the Macan of both generations is the Q5 chassis.
So Porsche went into the SUV business because they were losing market share to MB or BMW. They have a very loyal following on their sports cars, so if you're going to have a 911 in your driveway and you need an SUV for the trophy wife to go pick up lingerie why not have a Porsche....
