I’m in the US and the price difference is substantial, (Tariffs?). I priced out a base cayenne with functional options and it came in at $133,000. The IX 5 will come in at approximately $100,000.
We were caught in the east coast 9/21 flight cancellations. We rented a car in Boston‘s Logan and drove to Newark’s Liberty airport. We were given a new Nissan Pathfinder and also had wireless charging issues.

The Range Rover is a non starter due to Range Rover having a perceived issue with...
Just signed on as I’m seriously thinking about getting a 2027 Cayenne S as my next daily driver.
