At the moment, SUVs are cool. Porsches are sub zero. Therefore the Cayenne is the coolest SUV around. Let me explain with this techincal drawing, bound to offend ...
And I like it. |

The Cayenne is just as capable as a Cherokke off road- even a 911 Carrera 4 is more capable than most "SUV's" off road

it might be more high tech than the cherokee....but i'll bet you it is not buld around a truck frame so standard offroading....it will handle........rock crawling will damage the frame however..... also i'm not sure if there is a 4wd system out there yet to beat the quadra drive for offroading found in the jeeps.....i mean sending almost up to 100% torque to one of the wheels that has traction denotes one heck of a diferential

No Indepentant suspention equiped vehicle is as capable offroad than an live axle truck. Horsepower is not a factor in off roading. A Suzuki Samuri would go where this porsche wouldn't dream. The idea of most new SUV makes my stomach hurt. They were built for the road, not for the trails, even Land Rover is going that way.

The Touareg is excellent for a big SUV off road. The Cayenne must be as good or not far I think.

I agree, I bet that there are places the old LJ20 Suzuki brute could go that the Porsche behemoth-monster couldn't. (and with less cylinders and money to boot!)

The Porsche has already been TAKEN off road, at MOAB and at the Rubicon. Unlike Jeep-zealot's old fashioned idea that unitbody vehicles CAN"T be used offroad, modern engineering has made extremely strong and rigid structures from them. The Porsche is no exception. It is highly capable off road, and that's already been proven. It also has a 7000 lb towing capacity, so you could tow your Porsche race car to the track with it with ease. And, at Watkin's Glen, teh pace Cayanne was lapping the track at speeds that street Porsches have had a hard time doing, proving it'self to be a very capable handler. So Porsche, true to it's engineering heritage, builds a single vehicle that is better at those three different areas than most cars that are only good at one area, and you retards think it's a bad thing. Sorry, but the vehicle is the ULTIMATE one-vehicle-for-everything. Hey, lets have a contest to see who can close their litle brain up the tightest! You all are acting like you believe that if you don't USE your brain cells, they last longer...

Most likely, 99.9% of these vehicles will never go off road, and probably a very similar number won't even see a dirt road or be hitched to a trailer. the majority of them will be wasting valuable city parking space outside of yuppie coffee houses (come to think of it, that space isn't so valuable, let the yuppies keep it) Can I say status symbol? Porsche has finnally made a vehicle perfect not just for a man in his midlife crisis, but also for any man who needs over compensation - or any disgruntled soccer mom with penis envy. If you're a trendy, rich, insecure person - this may very well be the perfect vehicle for you! Caution: contains 50% sarcasm.

going on a dirt or mud road is not serious offroading...... and if you try with a cayenne any type of serious stuff like rock crawling......you'll rip it apart...... me and polygon we live close to moab and i've been there quite a few times .... the thought of taking a cayenne or x5 or touared or anything in that category trough the serious rocks out there is ridiculous

The Cayenne is ugly and extremely overpriced. Porsche should not have built an suv.
