If that 20% saved his life, in this case it did I'm all for it..

But I may have to argue and say what other SUV or how many suv's can go side ways at 60+ MPH?

The right driver could take an Escalade sideways at 60 mph! It was a combo of luck, driver skill, and vehicle dynamics!

That's not true at all. The right driver could have done that if he was expecting it sure. These cars are built for drivers who do something last second and not flip over etc..

This guy just jerked his wheel nothing more nothing less and the car did the rest. Put a pick and he woulvhave flipped 100 times

The Porsche does have a more dynamic chassis than most in its class, but what we saw was a mixture of reaction time, chassis and the stability control.

Agree with OP.

I don't think just any other SUVs can do this.

I'm a firm believer in Porsche...

The Cayenne is so firm to the road its hard to break it loose just playing around......muddy field, dukes of hazzard style back country roads.......even ICE!!!

I used to love hitting the top of parking garages for some angled front slides........when I was kid I had to use the ebrake.....

There's a few other SUVs that could have pulled that off, but not many. Pretty amazing story too, it could have easily resulted in multiple fatalities, all because the punk in the Sentra wasn't paying attention.
