Looks pretty good even with the huge camo over the front & rear lights.

Anyone know what the Turbo specs will be?

What we Americans really need is the big extended long wheelbase Cayenne with 4 rows of seating, because, well... we can!

 

i still say a good idea would be a 2 door version to compete with the evoque directly.. i love the mini suv 2 door platform.. kinda like the frankenstein cayenne they were making for a while.

 

Do you think it will come with plastic coolant pipes?

 

When is Porsche releasing a pickup truck?

only a matter of time.... maybe a wagon with wood on the side too.

 

Crewcab diesel??

 

I agree! Looks-wise: how is this differnet from the Cayenne? only the top half looks like a porsche. IMHO Cayenne and Machan are mistakes, butt ugly, and will only last a few years after the novelty of a "porsche SUV" wears off.

 

Chrismmm if you haven't drove a Turbo or TS Cayenne, I say do it. It sells itself. It is good on and off road, on a track, in a foot of snow, etc. For a person like me that drives a lot (work) and often on dirt roads, but loves sports cars and would drive a 911 daily or a turbo'ed caymen daily but cannot due to the conditions I'm in often this fills that gap well. I cannot stand the floaty feeling of most SUV's on the market.

As much as I do not like the thought of Porsche 'losing their lineage/heritage' I don't think they are, also these types of cars are funding for the 918, the 991, etc. Once Porsche offers as many models as BMW or MB, or Audi...we need to worry.

 

It's been 10 years since the first P!G made its debut. When do you think the novelty will start wearing off?

Oh, and I kind of agree that Cayennes are ugly, but only from the back. Machan, however, makes 958's derrière look like Alessandra Ambrosio's. No, strike that, maybe Gisele's

And what a hideous sounding name : puke-puke :

 

I'm not sure the novelty will wear off either... The Cayenne is Porsche's top selling vehicle worldwide.

Others have followed, like the Lamborghini Urus. As Porsche continues to expand into markets with poorly developed roads, the need for an SUV will continue to be strong.

 

Please put the cover back on it.
They succeeded in making the rear even uglier...can they make the taillights any larger?

 

A 2 door SUV? Why? Unless it's something like a Jeep Wrangler/Toyota FJ I don't see the functionality, esp. at Porsche's price point.

 

Holy large rear taillights batman

 

I don't get how they're saying that is uncovered... its still wearing the tail lamp, head lamp and pillar camo at the very least...

 

Agreed. The tail lights aren't as huge as they seem. That's the cammo cover...
