Porsche Dealers Waiting On Smaller Suv

Porsche designers are in the office and theyre not coming out until they can present the Roxster

. This will be the fifth model in the Porsche SUV line and will be a smaller version of the Cayenne to an extent. Current Porsche models aside from the Cayenne include the Boxter, 911 and Panamere.

New and used Porsche dealers are excited by the prospect that Porsche will open up into a new market, where there company says only Mercedes and BMW are currently designing. The German automakers have dominated in the crossover market and with smaller SUV design, but we dont always see all the fruits of their efforts here in the United States. Many modes are strictly marketed in Europe.

Porsche is investing a large chunk in this new line, but they did the same with the Cayenne and production of that model has almost doubled. I think this automaker has been around long enough to know how to hedge their bets, and to be honest, Ill stop and look at any vehicle that has a Porsche logo, so it will get attention.

Think about it next time you go by your used Porsche dealer. Dont you slow down? Arent you likely to assume anything that says Porsche is cool? Admit it. (That wasnt so painful, was it?)

This new model will be based on the Audi Q5 and the upcoming Q3. Although the name Roxster has not been confirmed, it has been rumored for quite some time and I think it has a certain attitude, so Im going with it. Westport used Porsche customers should feel free to call it Roxster as well in lieu of anything better coming from the Porsche designers or headquarters.

Anyway the Roxster, as we will call it henceforth, is designed as a luxury, sporty car. It will be even sportier than its parent model the Cayenne (whose name also has nice attitude) and will have some heavier lines. Also added will be LED headlamps and taillights.

Insiders believe the Roxster will give buyers a choice of a V6 or a V8 with output from 280 to 500 horsepower in a rumored Turbo version. Thats the only thing I dont like about the whole Roxster idea too many rumors. Even though we dont know when this model might hit dealerships, it would be great if Porsche would step up and give us some definite details so we can start salivating now.

But while I wait Ill just visit my Porsche dealer and drool over the variety of models whose details I can confirm. But a 500-horsepower Turbo come on, tell us about it!
