No, you’re not seeing things – this is not a Porsche Macan, but an almost identical copy from China called the Zotye T700. As seen in these leaked pictures from Chinese website autohome.com.cn, it apes the design of Stuttgart’s baby SUV almost to a tee.
It’s all here – large front air intakes, low positioning of the fog lights, rotund surfacing, almond-shaped window line, sloping roofline, VW-esque door handles and wing mirrors mounted on stalks mimic similar items on the Macan. Even the “side blades” along the doors have been carried over, albeit in silver as opposed to black.
The tail light graphics also bring to mind the Macan, but its kinked outline, as well as the tailgate-mounted number plate recess (as opposed to the bumper-mounted one on the Macan), actually appears to more closely reference the facelifted Cayenne. The only cues not taken from the Zuffenhausen design handbook are the L-shaped headlights, bonnet vents and BMW M6 Gran Coupe-style two-tone alloy wheels.
According to Car News China, the Zotye T700 will be powered by either a 177 hp 2.0 litre turbo engine (the Porsche makes 237 hp from a mill with a similar configuration) or a 3.0 litre turbo V6, developed in-house by Zotye. It is expected to arrive in showrooms next year with prices starting at around 170,000 yuan (RM102,500) – that’s far cheaper than a Macan, which starts at 558,000 yuan (RM336,400) in China, or RM420,000 in Malaysia.
The real Porsche Macan
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
To be honest, I like it more than the Macan… Though the front reminds me more of a Peugeot than the Macan.
agree.. the clone looks better than original
chinese copycat :D
Wow China has it’s own developed engine that is 177hp 2.0 litre and 3.0 litre v6 developed in house. Malaysia…… been developing Campro 1.6 turbo… not bad Bravo…
incoming nuclear comments from blind Potong fanboys.
haramjadah keje meniru je..
meniru takpe janji ade effort. jangan macam proton tu. haha haram jadah
Zotye has in house developed 177hp 2.0 litre engine and 3.0 litre v6 while proton has 1.6 turbo… Bravo not bad
The shape, shape only, is cantiq.
Kembara China.
Most people in Malaysia will choose a HRV at similar price.
Then please copy lamborghini,ferrari,porche and sell it with dirt cheap price
Well comment, i think the same you imaging too.
WTF man!! Luckily, they didn’t copy the engine. And doubt they can match the handling & performance of the real deal.
Honestly, the design is nice n clean. Cant afford a macan, then just get the zotye…
that is the price to pay when entering china market.
but i guess with the volume China have, no one willing to break line and start barking.
too bad they cant bring it outside (can they?) otherwise many would take a chance, change the emblem and taraaaaa!
as long as it is not proton should be okay i think
As long as it has no killer airbags it’s ok i think
Look better than Macan!!! Chun!!!
looks like porsche…but definitely cannot perform like a porsche.
So, this car caters for syoik sendiri buyers?
You don’t say? you expect porsche performance with that price tag?
There is a reason why Uncle Ho got his MBA in Copying from China… And you know… China did introduce the Kopier technology, based loosely off the Kompressor technology but completely different task lolololol.
copycats. As usual fake things from china.
Zotye T700 VS Landwind X7?
After the Evoque, now it’s the Macan turn. You got to hand it to the Chinese carmakers for not giving a f**k to what the world thinks. On the side note, i actually feel the T700 looks better than the original Macan.
We always condemn chinese products but they are way ahead of us in all areas of science and technology with established industries that are recognised universally. Both P1 & P2 are also basically copycats but we talk about china products only.
we have to be realistic. No matter how horribly unscrupulous certain china businesses are, China is still a world superpower while we at bolehland are a 3rd world country being driven into the dark ages by our beloved leadership.
give credit where credit is due. Don’t just condemn China.
p1 copycat? Lol which one? If inspira yeah it’s legitimate copy / rebadging.
hahaha looks r better than Macan!
Lol I like the fact that you named the Macan pic folder ‘The real Porsche Macan’
Garbage…bet those who are complementing this car won’t buy it either! So unethical..
I want to buy this car for 100K. Please bring it in.
wow so expensive…why not in 40k wan..
