I remember when Porsche announced thet they were going to make a SUV the cries of we don't want a Porsche truck were loud. The Cayenne and now the Macan have made Porsche lots of money and helps secure the sports cars with funding for more improvements. They are cash cows.
We went "to the dark side" when my wife said she wanted a Macan. It is the first SUV I have ever owned, and she absolutely loves it. I still think of it as her car. She ordered exactly what she wanted, and it has been a great vehicle and fits our needs perfectly. She had driven Mercedes in the past but her last car was an Infinity G35x that was a decent car, but it was a boring vehicle that had terrible gas mileage.
Every car maker that sees the success and demand for the SUVs has to sit up and take notice of those profits going to other companies.
