They have already ventured into a number of previously taboo segments like SUVs, sedans and diesel-powered models, so what’s stopping the people controlling the fates of Porsche from continuing down this path and expanding their reach into new sub-segments?
If they’re growth- and profit-driven, then nothing, though, we do suspect / hope that there are some lines not meant to be crossed…
Whether this includes blurring the lines between their purely sports offerings and more fashion- and mainstream-orientated products to create cars like the Cayman Safari crossover proposed here by X-Tomi, remains unknown.
For what it’s worth, there had been a rumor floating around recently about Porsche developing a 911 Safari Off Road concept for the Beijing Auto Show in April, which never came true.
