Very nice rear end. Stylish lamps and awesome exhausts. I like the rims aswell.

Nice back end, nice arches, nice doors, nice engine. All in all.....nice. But as bultaco says, perhaps a little shite in the fact that it's ANOTHER "performance 4x4".

It's small apparently. Like an Audi allroad almost. I've got a test drive scheduled when it comes out (end of April says the dealer). I'll let you all know how it gets on.

If only Ferrari would make an SUV, that would be amazing.

This thing is hardly an answer to Cayenne. It's slower, not as dynamic, and more expensive. Sure it's little bit better offroad, but who's going to take any of these car offroad?

thats why i think mate !!! when somebody asks me for cayenne or touareg I sat its a "tall"Porsche and the "bastard"brother of cayenne, Stormer is more like a SUV, you can use Cayenne and Touareg ffor offroad, it has very very good apptitudes for offroad, but as you said, who the hell is going to make offroad with this cars......... In fact as time passes im getting more angry cause 4x4 constructors are evolutionating it to road, in other words, perfomance 4x4, still there are a little number of cars that are pure 4x4, like Mercedes G, Defender, Hummer H1 ( FU** H2)....

And other 4x4 (mitsubishi montero, land rover discovery, range rover, land cruiser etc... )are getting worse for offroad, cause

THIS NEW FUCKING FASHION WAVE TO HAVE A 4X4 FOR THE CITY.

IMO finally theres only going to be 4 or 5 pure 4x4... and as a offroad addict.... that fucks me a lot !!!

P.S: Cayenne and Touareg are not included in my black list, cuase they arent a 4x4 or a SUV, they are an hybrid of SPORTCAR and 4x4

Fully independant wishbone air suspension with adjustable height.

With Terrain Response - a similar system to that in the Range Rover allows it to adapt to different off road conditions - it tunes the suspension, traction control and other electronic aids.

I think this is a concept car that will remain a concept car, and the result of this work was embodied in the new range rover sport which recently came out.
