New Cayenne - SportDesign no longer available?

[Randomer123]

So, I had my spec in for the new Cayenne, specified with the SportDesign package.

I've now been informed (1 day before lockdown) that this is no longer available. Anyone have any better information on where it's gone and why?

In the printed and PDF brochure it was always listed as provisionally available for the base and S models from August 2018 onwards. I think it was May 18 for the Turbo. The PDF has lots of footnotes relating to when options will become available that are not visible in the public configurator, but which do pop up as warnings on the dealer version. For example, the conflict between tow bar prep and the spare wheel, or limits on availability of different wheel styles.

I can see it's very frustrating that the dealer didn't seem to have this info though. It does all feel a bit last minute and disorganised with the UK Cayenne launch. I can only assume it's down to the disruption caused by the imminent production shutdown.
