Porsche Roxter - Can this be true

[Kroggers]

Porsche is working on a compact SUV based on the upcoming Audi Q5. Now, according to a recent report by AutoBild the baby Porsche SUV will carry the name “Porsche Roxter.”

Wouldn't be the first time Porsche made a POS based on an Audi (or at least and Audi engine).

common, be nice, the 924 was a decent car before it got the emissions detune for the US of A
it was a good handling car, nice styling and saved Porsche from bankruptcy
and that audi engine, was bullet proof, the engines of the pre galvanized years lasted longer then the body work did

[Rick Lee]

Any chance BMW will object to the name, since the have a bike called Rockster?

The artist renderings look like they want to give Subaru a run for the money.

Even if Porsche decide to make these odd niche market cars, I really hope they ditch the name.

Why wouldn't they spell it with an 's' - Roxster, like Boxster?

Wiki says it will be built in Ingolstadt with the Q5 (based on A5).

The first pic looks more like a crossover vehicle. FWIU, this market is quite vibrant.

The first one is a study based on the A5, the second on the Q5, which is based on the A5... which is based on the... arrrgh...

What the hell is the point of an "artist's rendering".

"Here is what the car would look like if I worked for Porsche and only had Photoshop and pictures of their other cars"
