Why not? Whatever sells, right? Will it be electric with an interactive sound system?

Lots of people were agast at the news they were going to make a SUV. The Cayenne & Macan made Porsche a ton of money.
Likely any all new vehicle will be electric just to satisfy the greenies in Germany. I am sure I was not the targeted customer base for one, and I will not be buying one. If it keeps Porsche making the 718s and 911s that is a great thing.

Already been done.
 Seriously, VAG (VW) owns it all now. They are also having to meet all of the nanny-state requirements. It will be interesting to see what VAG badges as Porsche. Oh, and I will note that the Cayenne is a much better driver than what should be the same VW T-reg.

The Porsche and Piech families own the majority of stock in VW group. So whatever is done, it will be best for Porsche.

A 3 row SUV instead of my Sienna? Why yes, sign me up!
But wait, by then my oldest will be out of the house so I don’t really need a third row…. |

Cayennes are not so much sold to soccer moms. Too small. Too pricey too.

So I guess many people are buying BMW X7s and they want a piece of the pie.

An SUV is a mini-van for people in denial of owning a mini-van...

Nope. ^
Maybe more like the station wagon of the 2k's. But even that, not so much.
