Porsche has revealed plans for a new luxury SUV based on a ‘Sport’ variant of the Volkswagen Group’s Scalable Systems Platform (SSP).
The SUV will share the new SSP architecture with the upcoming third-generation Panamera – confirmed as an EV (see box, right) – and second-generation Porsche Taycan.
The new SUV is likely to be priced above the Macan and Cayenne when it is launched during the latter half of the decade, and suggestions are that it could be the unidentified car shown as a design model to North American Porsche dealers last year.
At the time, dealers described it as being “wider and larger than the Cayenne”, and said it featured a “flat rear design, not anything like the Macan and Cayenne”.
