Artist's rendering of the next-generation Porsche Cayenne due in 2010

Speculation, speculation, speculation, well, it's always nice to dream.

As in, what would your perfect Cayenne look like?

It may look like this.

These artist's rendering are based on spy shots of the next-generation Cayenne Porsche currently has in development.

It seems the Cayenne is getting smaller and going more...wagon-ly. Or as the French like to call it, break. Or, to use BMW's nomenclature, touring. Wait, why are the words always in English but each country has its own terms for things? Weird.

The Cayenne seems to have a more sloping windshield and sits lower to the ground. Its horizontal lines make it friendly looking, with a more pronounced downward slope towards the front end.

This Cayenne also looks more agile and you can expect an improved performance in the next generation.

Porsche says it wants the next Cayenne to be more fuel-efficient and plans on offering a diesel and as well as a hybrid version. Already a current-generation Cayenne hybrid is expected next year along with a diesel too. Each will be a first for the up until now exclusively petrol/gasoline Porsche brand.

There are no confirmed details yet on which engines will power the next-generation Cayenne.

The one thing we can really be sure about is that the next Cayenne will make the streets by 2010.

Why not a diesel hybrid plug in? 30-40 mpgs in a truck?

My comment is constructive: The Cayenne needs a higher stance above the road in order to be a SUV! This render shows how the front is kicked in and its much higher! This is compensated by the air-suspension which allows this 2.5 tonne car to go low and to go high whenever its needed!

that just looks like a drawn version of the current cayenne, one of the worst rendersings i have seen

Surely it is eaiser to design and sell bland cars instead of ugly cars. Why on earth can't Porsche ever fix that Cayenne!

TO AUDICNICK: if you were to do a rendering for the Cayenne would you make it look like the current Cayenne with a deformed rear end or make it look good???

i'd make it look like what it could realistically look like in production. but y'know, that's just logical.

yes that is true, but there are good looking cars in production and there are ugly looking ones...

once again the one who wrote the article has his facts all wrong, Porsche does have a diesel. They use the audi 3.0 tdi in the cayenne

Hahahaa! Revolutionary changes in Porsche or just VW/Škoda influence? Better than previous indeed.

Yeah...ipsesnipse is right...my Porsche dealer called me to say they are taking orders for the Cayenne diesel. It will have the 3.0 liter turbo diesel from Audi. I don't know about other markets but it will be out in Korea early next year.
