I completely agree on the uselessness of the Macan. Small SUVs are perceived as functional, but their cargo space is typically abysmal. Ride height and an upright seating position is the only thing they have to offer, if you're into that.

The Ferrari is ~$400k.

Macan- ~$60k

Cayenne- ~80k

I don't see this as the same play as Porsche at all.

You went from a world where buying a Porsche was an additional car in the fleet, to replacing your Camry with a Macan. It made people who just wanted to say they drive a Porsche have a way easier path, and the sales proved people were looking for that, no matter how lame that is.

The Ferrari only achieves lowering the bar based on seating 4 people, but the incremental price difference is still massive.
