Default When is the facelift due?

Hi,
As we all know, the Cayenne started as a 2004 model and the facelift came in 2008. So, first generation had 4 years with original model then facelift lasted 3 years,
Second generation started as a 2011 model. So, should we expect the facelift to happen in 2014 or 2015?

Cheers,
dMan

My theory 2015 model year in 2014:

They just released pictures/ordering of the highest end Cayenne Turbo S ... does not look too face-lifted to me! Turbo S shipments should start in Q1 2013. 2014 model should enter production in June 2013. Would not be too happy if my $200K loaded Turbo S was "visually" obsoleted 3 months later !!!!

Could you just imagine how pissed poor RAKLAW would be, he would have to buy his 3rd Cayenne in a year to maintain top dog status

My bet is early 2014, one year after Panamera facelift.
After the Turbo S, we will see a Cayenne Platinum/Titanium or whatever edition before the facelift is due.

The German autobild says the follwing: "Die dritte Cayenne-Generation geht zwar erst 2017 in Serie, doch das Cayenne-Coupé soll schon im Frühjahr 2016 einen Vorgeschmack auf das komplett neu entwickelte Leichtbau-SUV geben". So that will probably mean a face lift in 2015 and the new model in 2017.

2014 is what i have always read, so 2015MY. There is a Pana facelift coming that is meant to change its look. but like a lottery, don't bet on it.

Thanks for the valuable input, based on what you guys are saying I would guess 2015 is more like it.

Cheers

I would expect 2 years of TTS and a Special edition to dump out the parts bin 12 - 18 months prior to new body
