"It all started when I looked around and couldn't find the car of my dreams anywhere. So I decided to build it myself!" Professor Ferry Porsche's words mark the very start of the Porsche brand's success story. The car that he designed in 1947 and which his company then built was 'Number One', the first Porsche of all and a sports car the like of which had not been seen before. 55 years later, history could be said to be repeating itself with the Cayenne: this Porsche too is a new kind of automobile. The company's sports-car tradition lives on here in the form of supreme road performance and outstanding handling. But the Cayenne is not content to be merely one of the best of its kind on the road; the design engineers have also endowed it with off- road talents that make one of the most mobile vehicles in the world away from the road.

This book is a fascinating account of the long road that led to the creation of a new Porsche model family quite different from anything that had gone before, its remarkable technical features and the new dimensions of driving in its most magnificent form that the Cayenne opens up.
