Porsche’s mini Cayenne: Porsche Roxster

Posted in Cars, International News, Porsche, Rumours / By /

Autobild reported that Porsche will be building a smaller version of it’s Cayenne SUV based on the Audi Q5 and Volkswagen Tiguan, in a classic Porsche-VAG platform sharing tradition that was used with the Cayenne-Touareg-Q7 trio. There’s certainly a business case for this, as the Cayenne proved to be a financial success, though many have criticized Porsche for diluting it’s brand by developing an SUV, a far cry from the sports cars it was making.

While most of the time an automaker would just remain silent on such comments, Porsche has responded via Dow Jones Newswires that there are NO plans for a Porsche version of the Audi Q5.

    Still looks like Kermit…but at least its arguably much better looking than the big brother Cayenne.

    So so much sexier than the Cayenne, and it's got some cute-as-a-button looks, like the Fiat 500. I see great resemblance here.

    Looks better than the big brother, but still not good looking though.
