Hi guys,

Can any one who has taken the car comment on the dash Car visualization (not sure what to call it but the screen where it shows the car and uses radar to sense other cars around it?)

Tesla’s have a similar screen but in some of the POV videos I’ve seen of the Macan it looks pretty inaccurate and late to sense.

A saw a picture of the q6 version of it and it looks fantastic (see attached) in comparison. At the same time I also saw another POV video of the q6 from another video that shows something more similar to the Macans screen so I’m a bit confused.

My local dealer doesn’t have the car available for test drive yet so can’t check for myself. Thanks in advance.

I share similar interest/concern with you. As I am coming from a Tesla model s and am addicted to its FSD. I also noticed what you referred to as dash car visualization on some of the macan ev videos. I am very hopeful the adaptive lane keep with the innodrive will at least reliably keep the car centered in any and all lanes whether highway or small streets. Just the fact the dash shows what the car sees makes me optimistic. I guess we will soon see. My macan ev turbo has been at the dealership since Thursday and they are waiting for some technical software instructions from Porsche and expecting them tomorrow. Keeping my fingers crossed I can take delivery Friday afternoon. Trust me the first thing I will be looking for after the neck snapping acceleration would be how good are the cars lane keep , adaptive cruise and innodrive 😉

Yup pretty it will show some form of visualization but hoping it’s more like the 1st photo vs the 3rd photo that I posted. The 1st photo is dramatically better IMHO

1st photo video reference about 11 seconds mark:



3rd photo reference (which appears to be identical to the Porsche one)

It works very well, it’s aware of vehicles and lanes. So far no issues. I’ll try to take a picture when I drive next at a stop light.

I do not have a picture but will take one. The car shows other cars like in picture one. I am not that impressed with innodrive, it goes from side to side. My Taycan newer did that, but it is all new. The stalk and the visuals in the cluster

what sucks is that i absolutely love the audi interior... probably better than the Porsche...
i just hate the exterior! It's more big wagon-ish than SUV. I've been an audi fan, but these "SUV's" miss the mark for me.

Generally speaking I love Audi interiors but I actually like the Macan interior more than the Q6 E-Tron. To each their own i guess. :p

That’s great and thanks for confirmation. To be clear I’ve seen it show other cars etc like in picture 1 but it’s certainly not to the quality of what is shown in picture 1. But maybe I’m just seeing things.

Finally got a chance to test this out a bit further. So far, very impressed. Here are some pictures and a short video. It recognizes your blinking lights

I don’t like the Audi interior… big screen is so disappointing because it’s just 2 little rectangular screens integrated in a big curved black plastic piece. when there is direct light on it, it looks so ugly IMO.
At this price tag, It should have been a one piece curved screen.
