The Cayenne most definitely have hill descent control. it's called PHC, "Porsche Hill Control". Puzzled how nobody bothered to either check the manual or at least google it. Press the S button on the cruise control stalk, select PHC, and use the rotary to regulate the speed.

On the other hand, it would depend on the type of comparison. This one -- the simplest form -- is as they would be purchased from the dealer. For example, Land Rovers are excellent off-road vehicles, but generally sold with large wheels and all-season tires. The opposite of what's best for off-road traction. Its the same with the Mercedes G-Class. Giving them similar wheels/tires wouldn't necessarily make it more fair; rather, just change the type (what's being judged) of comparison. I've seen both types of tests, and their great. Consumer get to learn a lot about their cars, and how these vehicles work and perform in different conditions: "Can I take my street-equipped Cayenne off-road?" Well now we know the answer is...yes.

Impeccable 👌🏽 !
