A Face Only A Mother Could Love: Next Gen Cayenne Loses Cammo And Scares the Heck Out Of Us

The Porsche Cayenne is bucking the trend for larger and heavier cars. These spy pictures reveal the next evolution of the popular SUV will be smaller and lighter than its predecessor.

Hoping to integrate the Cayenne more seamlessly into the Porsche line-up, the German firm are looking to do away with much of the bulky off-road equipment to make the new car more driver focused.

Based on the next-generation platform used in the VW Touareg and Audi Q7, the new Cayenne will be 40mm shorter and 20mm lower than the old model. Other styling updates obvious from these shots are a higher waistline and a new set of LED daytime running lights.
