Is the new one smaller than yours? I think the later design is slightly better.

I think it is actually bigger, certainly it has slightly more legroom in the back.
Probably bad camera angle / pictures.
The new design is better, sleeker profile when you see them up close.
Its never going to be the best looking. Great to drive and ok off road. _________________ 1971 Alfa GT 1300 Junior

I wonder from where? I'm guessing bonnet, doors and tailgate made of aluminium, most suspension components and more engine components than before? Gearbox casing from Aluminium? 180kgs is a heck of a lot.

Don't tell anyone, but the first one was made to be a proper off-roader, this one isn't.
The drive systems (including old gearbox and heavy-duty 4WD mechanicals, low range gearbox and locking diffs) and complex suspension have been jettisoned to save almost 10% weight.
The Cayenne S sheds 180kg even though it adds an additonal 70kg more standard equipment!
A new production process for the doors saves 39kg, ditching the transfer case with its low speed gearing 50+kg. Aluminium chassis components shaves a further 16kg. The optical biased wiring loom is 10kg lighter.
The Cayenne’s bodyshell uses "smart steel" for the body structure (variable thickness and welding techniques) with an aluminum bonnet, doors/tailgate.
Don't tell anyone, but the first one was made to be a proper off-roader, this one isn't.
Don't tell anyone, DMS have altered the boost on my Turbo S. Goes like the wind, faster than the new turbo. _________________ 1971 Alfa GT 1300 Junior
