Porsche is set to break with 94 years of tradition in 2028 when it launches a replacement for the combustion-engined Macan, which will be its first production car with drive biased towards the front wheels. It will also adopt the similarly sized Q5’s Quattro Ultra drive system. But instead of heavily re-engineering it to offer a rear-biased four-wheel drive system – as Porsche did with the first Macan – it will instead be used largely unmodified for cost reasons.
Based on SG's review of the X3 vs SQ5, the SQ5 can already shuffle 70% of power to the rear wheels but be 100% FWD on the highway, so I'm expecting a direct port of that system with some minor tweaks.
The Macan was basically a reskinned Q5 from 3 generations ago, so this would be no different.
I like it. I like the skinny nostrils and the narrow headlights. I do wish it was more shark nose but likely can't due to pedestrian regulations and aero.
It actually really looks like the prior model Civic Coupe.

Grow up fuckin Peter Pan and get a good nights rest.
I am curious - What made the CR-Z so bad and sell poorly?
Gutless hybrid drivetrain ported directly from the Civic hybrid of the era, which itself was not that good. Based one what the CRX SHOULD have been in in the past, it should have gotten the R18 as base and K20/24 for a CRZ Si.
In my opinion, the new X3 looks terrible. And if the new X5 looks like that, I'm not sure which is worse - that or the iX.
I guess we're just old and don't like these "futuristic" designs...

The X3 does look terrible, but the iX3 has potential to look better. It's on a completely different platform. The new X3 is codenamed G45 which is just a modified version of the last G01.
