Good morning all,
I currently have a new order pending for a new Cayenne S Hybrid due March 2020 [8|]...
I decided this route after many bad experiences with Range Rover (Hybrid) and Tesla P100DL but still wanted a hybrid / EV option. Sold the P100 just before Tesla decided to drop the list price in March > £30K!!
I was looking at the RR ATB P400E as the replacement but stopped again...heart over mind...still too many problems reported...I also didn't like the idea of the 4-pot 2.0 litre petrol in the RR and Volvo, so after a little bit of research and a test drive a couple of months ago (Porsche Solihull seemed to have only current demonstrator) I decided the new Cayenne Hybrid was the one to go with...3.0 engine and larger KW electric plant than all the others. BUT, the dealer then told me I can only reserve a build slot but they can only estimate when it will be built...all the cars being re-aligned with this ol' emissions/ economy figures...
So what to do in the interim period....I'm now the lucky owner of my Agate Grey Targa 4S that of course was my "ONLY" sensible choice for the interim pending the Cayenne progressing...
BUT, I'd love to know peoples opinions on the new hybrid and anything I should be aware of...(i believe its the same set-up as the Panamera Hybrid)..or should avoid it all together?
Thanks
Steve
