Common misconception. Just because two cars are based on the same platform doesn't mean that they are identical. The Toureg, Cayenne and Q7 share the same platform but have zero in common when it comes to drive train, size and driving characteristics. although the new Cayenne is based on the Q5 it's size is going to between the Q5 and current generation Cayenne, rather than be a direct Q5 competitor. Just look at the Q7, based on the same platform as the Cayenne but is much larger.
So don't get it twisted, the new Cayenne is not going to be of the same size as the Q5, X3 and GLK. Interior space shouldn't be a too big of a leap backwards, it's more that the overall exterior size and appearance of the car is going to be sleeker.
