Like the Tiguan, this five-door luxury crossover SUV Porsche called the Macan is also named for an animal in another language. What does Macan mean in Indonesia's Javanese language?

The Macan was originally known by its code name Cajun, a portmanteau of Cayenne Junior, but was quickly renamed to pay homage to the Tiger (side note: tigers are not native to the island of Java in Indonesia). The Macan is truly an international jewel, winning the South African Car of the Year Award in 2015.
