Just cannot see the point of a large SUV in a coupe format, surely you buy a big car for the space and then to lose most of the rear headroom. As with X6 or Velar, maybe unless just to take small children and handbag dogs out on the school run and block the road in the process, why would you? šŸ˜–šŸ˜‰

My knees are shot, I find it difficult to get in and out of mormal low saloons, so I have a Macan, but I'd be happy with one of these as I odn't need race track performance or handling, and lets face it, how many of us actualy use it?

On the other hand it's quite stylish, there is still a need for personal taste to outstrip practicality in a world of square boxes.

I am certainly no X6 fan and I agree with Mike but I have to admit I like the Cayenne Coupe lines better than the base car as that always seems wrong at the rear for a Porsche. :D

I donā€™t think the final car will look much like this concept drawing...

I actually think it works quite well. Being that thereā€™s probably more than adequate headroom to begin with I imagine thereā€™ll be still plenty with the dropped roof line.

And when did functionality play a part in the decision making of some? Letā€™s face it it looks and will perform a whole lot better than the Beemer.

And bring on the Bentayga variant!!! :shock: :twisted:

I'm not a great fan of the X6 but like the X5.
