An email from EVO got past the spam filter this morning. I don't usually have a spam filter for EVO but this one needed it!

As most manufacturers continue to hunt niches within niches Porsche get the prize for finding the first for 2021.

I present the Pork Taycan (Electric) Turismo (Estate) Cross (Crossover) Turbo (not got any) S (but they are turned up higher)
https://www.evo.co.uk/porsche/porsc...revealed-750bhp-turbo-s-to-top-crossover

A low slug off road not SUV with more Duracells than any iPad could every need and apparently less ground clearance than an S4.

Just to make it extra silly I quote a comment from the article "As well as the new estate body, the Cross Turismo also features new lower bumper sections" which seem to stick out more." So when will we have the Electric Defender SVR to go up against it in their natural habitat, Chelsea? Or will it be an Electric Velar SVR.

You could not even fit our neighbours cat under that never mind go off road? They are treating us as mugs again.

Not meant in anger, I am just laughing at them for making the most marketing based fake model I have seen in ages. Until JLR release the Defender Nurburgring of course. Of all the models to release? Leccy Macan? (same platform as the Audi I guess?) or even Cayenne I would get given the parts bin game but this is just odd. I guess they must have the stats that show it is worth making. Yet there is not one in the ICE range Turismo yes but Cross no?

I am obviously well out of touch/not their target audiance, even if I did try and rob a test drive in the base one to understand what the fuss was about.

Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.
