Porsche Cayenne

Porsche did not want to stay out of the 4x4 market, for that reason he developed the Cayenne that has characteristics closer to a sports car than to a 4x4. The most powerful version is turbo and develops 450 HP that allow it to exceed 260 km/h. In my first encounter with this vehicle I noticed that it was too low to be an SUV and too high to be a high-performance sports car. Then I uncovered the mystery, Porsche was impacting us with his attempt to create a 4x4 with all the genes of a 911. Technically it is proclaimed 4x4 for its permanent integral transmission system, electronic stability control, self-locking differential between traction axles and low option. Aesthetically nothing defines it as an off-road vehicle.
