Pelyma, the axles are all fully articulated on the Cayenne too Whistle Wink

But I take your point... I suppose nobody wants 400 horses driving up a quarry! Very Happy

Not to the same extent, your old car has 3 levels of off road suspension settings, as far as I'm aware no other has such suspension travel, cross articulation valves yes, but not the overall travel.

Pelyma is right though - I'm sure the RRS suspension travels much further than the Cayenne suspension. I doubt you would buy a Cayenne for going offroad in though.... Question

The cayenne is very capable offroad. Perhaps no LR but still very capable. When I was watching TV in germany one time they had a review of the Turbo S going offroad and it was really amazing. It held onto things well and really performed. The sound as well...im sorry but the Cayenne S and above sound waaay better than the Rangey S/C Whistle Mr. Green

The trouble with testing tracks is that they are manipulated to make the car look good, on tv it is difficult to see entry and exit angles, ramp break over angles etc But if you think they are good then great, but there will be no competition between a standard RRS and Cayenne period

I had an X5 and it's only other 4x4 I'd consider if ditching the RRS! Wink MY12 SDV6 HSE Sumatra/Ebony/Piano/Sidesteps/Privacy/Overfinch Olympus/JLR DRLs
