Not sure you're fit to be a Porsche Owner? Think again.

When you want a Porsche, but don’t have the lifestyle for a sportscar. - by Nedahl Stelio
  • 08 Oct 2019

When you want a Porsche, but don’t have the lifestyle for a sportscar. When you want a Porsche but you have kids. When you want a Porsche but can’t afford the sportscar. When you want a Porsche but a sportscar isn’t practical. When you want a Porsche but but but …

This here Porsche Cayenne gives you a glimpse into the life of an actual Porsche owner, with some added space and practicality.

Inside is quite luxurious, with leather everywhere you look. On the dash, the doors, on the seats which are also super comfortable, on the steering wheel, on the gear stick. It’s all about the leather which has a variety of finishes. It’s not as agile as a sportscar of course, and is heavier, so there is that to contend with while driving. But it is all smooth sailing, you can barely feel a bump and it handles beautifully.

The front seats are power operated, as is the sunroof, there are pedals on the wheel if you don’t want to extend a hand to the gear stick and the volume control is a cool silver barrel that rolls easily under the fingers.

Technology is either the Porsche operated system or Apple Carplay, there is no Android Auto option but you can still use the car’s multimedia and connect via Bluetooth for sat nav and to stream music and make calls.
