We will admit that the Porsche Cayenne is pretty good at a lot of things but a real, capable off-roader or “4×4” it is not.

Nevertheless, we believe that even the Cayenne could have navigated through this flooded underpass if the driver had taken a more cautious approach entering at a low speed instead of slamming the pedal to the metal disturbing the water in front of him.

Our tipster Alexia told us that this incident occurred in the German city of Hamburg and that just before the Porsche driver enthusiastically attempted to cross the water, someone from the crowd shouted, “Go for it! I can promise you that you will make it!”

See what happened next in the video after the jump.

Thanks to Alexia Z. for the video tip!
