Menoporsche Posted June 18, 2021 Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 I see a Cayenne just set the fastest SUV record around the Ring on 14 June; 7m24s. (My link not in English but sure you can find it). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenman Posted June 18, 2021 Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 (edited) Indeed, impressive stuff. I wonder if more than 1% of Cayenne potential purchasers have any interest whatsoever in how fast it could go round the Nurburgring? I can’t really see any marketing advantage here. I suppose it just reiterates the relative handling prowess of the Cayenne vs competitors, but really how many other manufacturers are bothering to try? best SUV in a field of 3 it seems?

CMA Posted June 18, 2021 Report Share Posted June 18, 2021 Having driven one around Porsche Experience centre a couple of years ago, just the 3.0 diesel version on a 718/Cayenne session. I'm not surprised. Very capable car, much more than I expected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david_yorkshire Posted May 8, 2023 Report Share Posted May 8, 2023 Ive driven round Spa & Nurburgring in a Hybrid KN; quite good; tyres were the limiting factor. Slicks would be fun! (BTW, the KN was ferrying the GT3 Cup car on a BJ trailer) I did take off the the trailer for the track! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
