Will this be the perfect sized SUV for daily life in Los Angeles? We will know very soon. Porsche will be introducing a smaller, city friendly SUV dubbed the "Cajun". Expect to see the Cajun arrive to the
Beverly Hills Porsche showroom sometime in early 2014. We are
hoping an example will make it to the
Los Angeles Auto Show this November 18th!

| Porsche Cajun Coming to Los Angeles |
Porsche today announced the expansion of its production facility in
Leipzig, Germany as the company prepares to produce the “Cajun” model
beginning in late 2013. Wolfgang Porsche, the Chairman of the
Supervisory Board of Porsche Automotive, and Matthias Müller, Chairman
of the Board of Management, joined guests from government and business
to announce the news in Stuttgart on Tuesday.
“We are investing another $684.9 million in the
production facility to build the Cajun in Leipzig. This is not just a
mark of confidence in the manufacturing skills of our Leipzig
colleagues, but also an important contribution to the economic
development of the region,” said Matthias Müller on the morning of the
festivities.
The Leipzig site, currently home to 800 employees, has been producing
the Porsche Cayenne since its conception in 2002, and also produces the
four-seater Porsche Panamera. Porsche has invested approximately $383
million in the Leipzig site, with more than 420,000
cars produced to date.
Production of the “Cajun” will create approximately 1,000 additional jobs at the facility.
The plant sets environmental standards as well, being one of the
world’s most efficient car factories. Efficient air recirculation and
power cut-off technologies in the paint shop ensure economical energy
use.
With the development of the upcoming “Cajun,” Porsche plans to expand
its SUV line-up, adding a new, smaller SUV model below the Cayenne.
