Porsche Roxster SUV spied

If there was any doubt Porsche was developing a second SUV model positioned below the Cayenne, these latest spy images of a new prototype at the Nurburgring can finally put an end to the uncertainty.

Rumors of a baby Cayenne date back more than a year and the car’s existence has continually been denied by Porsche including by its CEO Wendelin Wiedeking.

i was hoping it would be a little sportier looking. I think a two door small porsche SUV would sell pretty well, then have more of a sloped roof line, not like BMW X6, just sportier looking!

Something tells me that since it's only a test mule they'll add some spice before it reaches production--aluminum trim pieces, big rims, etc.

Roxster, Coxster, Boxster? What else is next. Foxser, Loxser, Soxster, Moxster, I can go rambling on all day. I haven't been a fan of Porsche SUV's because they are somehow weird looking and a bit small for the price you pay. But it is a piece of engineering. 165MPH from an SUV!

The point of a Porsche is a sporty coupe with a manual transmission. SUVs from Porsche are horrible.

But the added revenue from the Cayenne sales helps keep Porsche an independent company.

Cayenne = a neccesarry evil.

I don't like the product extension from Porsche, but if it will help them continue with their profitability, then by all means, its good...

Absolutely ridiculous. This is why the GT-R beat the 911 turbo

What is the point of this when the Audi Q5 already exists? Don't you think they'll reap enough profits from the VW Group?
