Not to be too negative, but are JLR having a laugh with the tailpipe design fakery here? Aside from being fake (as a previous posted mentioned) they are also disproportionately large. Perhaps if they were black rather than silver, it might not be that bad.
Not good. Not good.
The exhaust trims are a little too large i agree but they are not fake.Not good. Not good.

Always entertaining to see irrational anti-SUV fraternity's bleating, pretending to care so little about these 'offences to motoring' that they feel the need to comment on every single thread..... Great way to cheer us up in the midst of COVID-19 fear.
Back on topic, as I'm starting to look at a replacement for the Alfa QV when it goes back in a year, a performance SUV is on the cards, and I love the look of both of these. The £20k (£40k?) price difference is verging on laughable though.

The Velar starts at £44,500, with the Cayenne Coupe starting at £62,000, a 39% price difference in price between the two of them at a base level.
By comparison, the Velar SVA starts at £86,600 and the Cayenne Coupe Turbo £104,700, so a closer gap of 'just' 21% difference.
Perceive that as you will, but to me it makes the SVA worse value as you're paying nearly double (94%) for the performance model, where as with the Porsche you're only paying 68% difference from base to range topping.

Yes, but the base Velar is a lowly 2 litre diesel with 180 bhp. The base Cayenne is a 3litre V6 with 340bhp. Not really comparable as base models.By comparison, the Velar SVA starts at £86,600 and the Cayenne Coupe Turbo £104,700, so a closer gap of 'just' 21% difference.

Could you enlighten me about the rationality of pushing a great big breeze block through the air if 'performance' is any consideration at all? It's conspicuous consumption of finite resources for its own sake, plain and simple.

What about that TVR in your profile? I’d bet both of these cars are capable of being driven more economically - and they’re both certainly massively less polluting - than an old Chimaera. It's conspicuous consumption of finite resources for its own sake, plain and simple.
Why have that when you could ride around on a bike, whilst self-flagellating?
