I plan to write a detailed report on why we chose the hybrid and how it drives, but on delivery day, my first drive left me as moved as when I first drove a Porsche.(Probably helped by not having driven a Porsche for a month and a half.)

At the time of writing, the much-anticipated 911 Cabriolet (model 992) has not yet been delivered, but who would have thought the Cayenne would arrive before the 992? I hope to share impressions of the 992’s delivery and first drive in future articles.
