Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT Suspension Overview and... Flex Test? Car and Driver

[@ALMX5DP]

Dang that is some sophisticated suspension work. I can’t imagine the cost of diagnosing and replacing parts on that.

[@cranialnerv]

Careful removing wheels especially in front. Bang the wheel on the carbon brake and chip it and you’re out over $20,000 for new front rotors.

[@SirJamesTND]

Front caliper is an Akebono Unit and the rear is a Brembo

[@viccao8431]

does it look like they changed anything else geometry wise compared to the 2023 model? I have a q7 based on the same chassis and I wanted to upsize my tires from the 285/40/21 to a 285/45/21

[@kevindavis8143]

I like that they are using a top and bottom duel pivot on the front suspension. Not only is handling improved, but wear is also reduced.

[@ALMX5DP]

How does the dual ball joint link setup improve handling and reduce wear over a comparable double A arm with single ball joints?

[@kevindavis8143]

@@ALMX5DP handling is improved by moving the pivot point from inside the tire to the middle of the tire. This reduces a phenomenon known as "scrub". Wear is reduced on the tire from reducing scrub, but you also divide the load on the ball joints.

[@ALMX5DP]

@@kevindavis8143 ah gotcha, yeah I do see that making the upper links longer would make contact with the wheel so makes sense to develop it that way so the virtual point is still in a reasonable position. I didn’t think about how big everything is. On my Miata the upper arm is actually within the wheel barrel a bit but only because it’s so small and not interfering with anything else. And yeah definitely makes sense that two ball joints could distribute and effectively manage the load.

@@ALMX5DP my E90 BMW has a dual-pivot lower wishbone, it is a huge difference vs my old E46.

I haven’t heard about motion ratios in YEARS! Good information in this video.

[@Ficon]

Hyundai puts money into pretty graphics and 3-D gauges, Porsche into suspension geometry. The invisible stuff is why they are so much more expensive and drive like nothing else.

[@rhteixeira5176]

Allright Car&driver, that’s why i subscribe and still read your magazine in paper; because you were and are different! Keep this type fő content coming and see your KZbin numbers go up. Is that simple

[@darius2640]

Thats a lot of expensive to make and later maintain parts just to share the same road with beat up nissan altimas with speed limit of 55mph. Lol. But I like the review. Every car review should be like this. I dont want some guy talking about exterior styling and infotainmet settinga for 30min. Any halfwit could do that. But this right here takes real knowledge, the kind your average consumer doesn't have

[@manujayakoswatta]

I’m sorry but I cannot help you with that. I am an AI language model and I do not have the capability to send emails or access personal information. Is there anything else I can help you with?🙏

[@datdudeinred]

Ohh if you like such reviews then you should watch sarah n tuned videos. Her every review is like this.

[@nowornever81]

This is so technical I love it; I own the previous model; do we have a similar analysis for the previous model?

[@FPRO189]

guys the website has a problem, it does not work, every time I get in there, the information is disappearing

[@thelaw300]

Great dive into the suspension. Great job by Porsche!

[@Tuominen_Tero]

Great content, more this type of technical inspection. Thanks

[@maestroadam]

Great video, keep these up please

[@greyphantome2617]

Will the new tyre sizes fit on the pre face lift (at all suspension heights ? ) old 285/40/21 vs new 285/45/21

[@vipermoon_]

Do you want your motion ratio close to 100% and why/why not?

[@alex_707]

I love these suspension videos

[@gregoryh4601]

Dear Sir. If Porsche would turn the Backing Plates into Aluminum instead of Steel wouldn’t the Aluminum plates draw more Heat a way from the Carbon Fiber Rotors ?

[@demal1010]

I'd like to request a look at the F150 Lightning's suspension if that's possible please

[@arizonaridersclub]

We're riding with ya.

[@boy638]

Ignorant question: Do we have to do wheel alignment once we removed and put back the wheels?

[@davidk8830]

No you dont

[@SlumRacing]

Can you do this for the new Maserati grecale trofeo please

[@mac8179]

I guessing this house is definitely in LA. I’m going with Long Beach.

[@FPRO189]

please solve the problem as soon as possible 😓😓😓😓😓💔

[@mohammadsattar5488]

Is this guy brothers with Adam Savage ??

[@Tatom_Martin]

whats the diference beetwen The Macan and the Cayenne?

[@CLSTRN911]

Everything is different

[@SirJamesTND]

A macan and cayenne are as similar as a camaro and corvette

[@Tatom_Martin]

@@SirJamesTNDi know some diference but i want to know more

[@joetacchino4470]

@@Tatom_Martin The Macan is based on the first generation Q5 platform and although it has been updated twice, is very old. It came out in 2014-2015 and that was when the previous generation 958 Cayenne was still around. It also uses completely different engines at this point since the Cayenne no longer uses the 2.9L V6 Twin Turbo (at least for now). It also uses the 7 speed PDK / Dual clutch whereas the Cayennes all use an 8 Speed automatic. Aside from being 4 door (5 door really) SUV's with platforms underneath shared with other VAG vehicles, they couldn't be more different.
