If our friends at AutoColumn are to be believed, the Porsche Macan would have its India debut at the Auto Expo 2014!

While the folks at the AutoColumn believe that the new Macan will come to India via CKD route, we believed that the latest small crossover from Porsche would come to us as CBU, at least for the initial few batches. Once the CKD assemble commences, the same would take place at VW group’s Audi facility at Shendre, Aurangabad.
