Macan EV Turbo Volcano Grey review (after first days coming from Taycan, 911 and ICE Macan)

Another very good step forward is the connection with carplay is so fast that as soon as you open the door it is already connected! Maybe because of comfort access, but a big step forward from Taycan.

Nope, I don't have confort access and I can literally open the door that the music start playing from my Spotify account.

I was wondering why not a range setting like in the taycan and found that it does it automatically. The Macan lowers according to driving speed. I found because I was going to put it lowered but it was not available if riding at more than 150km/h
Also did my first auto parking and it worked quite well. You do nothing, it just parks by itself!

Tomorrow will be my first "High speed" trip and I will check the various settings.
And maybe I'll try also the auto parking since where I go there's a big big parking lot and early in the morning it's completely empty Not a big fun of auto parking neither on my ex Tesla but thanks for being the first to try it! .

Absolutely. After 4 years and 2 taycans i am really surprised. Car Play while entering the car, not waiting half a minute and more…

Does Porsche auto-parking work if there isn’t a vehicle either side of the space?

With BMW, the system looks for a gap between vehicles, so if there are lots of free spaces, it won’t don’t as it doesn’t just use the parking bay markings to look for a space.

I do not know but if all spaces are empty I just park it myself

Yep - don’t need parking assistance in that scenario!

Fair enough, and I guess most do that.
But good to know its auto-parking ability when there isn’t a vehicle either side of the space.

Just a note, the parking can involve going forward and backward and it does everything by itself, wierd experience, I hit the brake once and there is an option to continue and it continues until the end, try it
