Porsche has taken care of a series of first-generation Cayennes. The first SUV from Porsche is therefore ready for the rougher work, in honor of the twentieth anniversary of the Cayenne.
It’s been twenty years since Porsche started production of perhaps the most controversial model in its history; the Cayenne. The first Porsche Cayenne was received with quite mixed feelings, but it turned out to be a golden opportunity. Even more than the controversial 996, which appeared a few years earlier, Porsche was able to keep its head above water thanks to the SUV. To celebrate that the Cayenne has been around for twenty years, Porsche is now hoisting a number of primal Cayenne in a more adventurous jacket.
Together with Porsche’s local departments in the United Arab Emirates, the cars have been thoroughly overhauled. To begin with, they have all been checked from top to bottom and restored where necessary. According to Porsche according to the same criteria to which so-called ‘Porsche Approved’ occasions are subject. So you can assume that these Cayennes can handle it again. Also in rough terrain, because Porsche has put them all considerably higher on their legs, fitted with new wheels with thick off-road rubber. Furthermore, skid plates and extra strong towing eyes have been added. In addition, they all have a roof rack. One copy carries Porsche’s new roof tent and another Cayenne has a battery of extra lights hanging on the nose. A special color scheme, a different one for each copy, finishes it off.
It’s not just appearances, the cars have already had an off-road adventure in the mountainous desert area near Dubai. The Cayennes will be available to visitors this weekend at the Porsche Festival in Dubai to take them into the rough terrain. Under supervision, of course, because Porsche likes to keep them whole.
