DBX vs Cayenne

Can the DBX drive as well and handle turns as well as the Cayenne?

I would imagine that would depend on the driver and vehicle to sort that question out. And is it vs current model year match? You should test a DBX as they seem to have great reviews in the handling department.

I've driven the DBX and the 707. The handling and weight management was amazing. Have not driven a Cayenne. Go give one a shot!

Drove the DBX and the 707 - just not an SUV guy - was not impressed.

I am big time impressed how flat and well the DBX goes around corners. The interior is a really special place to be with the most comfortable seats I've sat in of any car in recent memory. The active roll bar really does a terrific job. The DBX does have that Aston feel to it.

Absolutely, just took mine on a 3 day backroad run with 10 other Porsches. Had no problem keeping in the pack. Great Fun!

My 18 Macan S handled much better than my 13 Cayenne. My DBX with the standard 48V suspension handles much better than the S. Grip is excellent with minimal body roll.

Really, I thought Cayennes were one of the best mid sized handling SUVs out there?

I love my cayenne turbo. It's a tank and handles high speeds very well. It is very well balanced and can even handle off-road duty.

I haven't driven a DBX yet, but it has a lot to overcome with the Cayenne.

I haven't drive the "standard" DBX, but test drove the DBX707. WOW, just Wow! I wasn't in the market for a SUV, but now have a DBX707 in the garage. My wife has a Maserati Levanta and the difference is night and day. She didn't think we should spend the money on the DBX, but now it's her go to ride. It's fast, comfortable and handles extremely well. It can keep up with a Cayenne Turbo GT and rides like a Bentayga.

I warn you though, don't test drive one unless you are in the market. Otherwise every other SUV is a let down!

That's great to hear that the DBX707 provides such an excellent driving experience.

I'm not in the market, luckily, but will try to squeeze in a test drive at the local dealer if the opportunity comes up.
