Porsche Cayenne - Second-generation Cayenne heralds Porsche's first hybrid

摘要

The first line of the Autocar road test of the Cayenne Turbo, seven years ago, read: "Perhaps it should be called the Porsche Controversy." How times change. Since the Cayenne's 2003 introduction, Porsche's entry into the then-burgeoning SUV market has been accepted to the extent that it is now consistently Porsche's best-selling model. Even those who have not come to love the Cayenne would find it hard not to be impressed by its dynamic ability - and perhaps heartened by the knowledge that its contribution to Porsche's coffers has allowed for impressive improvements to the rest of the Porsche range. The Cayenne is not controversial now.
