Electrify America Announces 1-Year Free Charging For Macan EV Owners

[macanchan]

How do I set up getting the free charging with my Macan? Macan isn't listed in the EA list of Porsche models on the EA App?

Try using the myPorsche app, I use that to connect to the EA chargers. I have the plug & charge enabled as well.

used to be 3 years for Porsche Taycan - but honestly doesn't matter cause EA doesn't really work all that often so you won't be using it anyways unless you want to spiral into frustration attempting to use the worse charging network on the planet.

maaaan, i got a EA station like 5 minutes from my house.... it will be used! I don't plan to use my home charger for that first year at least

On our last road trip all EA 150 and 350 kw chargers worked perfectly — so much so that each way we eliminated a planned charging stop. Most were newer installed stations but not all.

Has anyone actually got it to charge at 350kW? I just did a roatrip yesterday with two EA fast charging stops and the highest charging I saw was probably around 250kW, but most of the time somewhere around 175kW. These were empty stations as well where I was the only car, so no power splitting going on.

The maximum input for all Macan EVs is 270k. Even if the charger wants to throw 350k, the car will only receive 270k. As per the Porsche site…

The Audi Q6 E-tron charging curve I've seen - with the same PPE platform - holds peak charging rates of over 270kw until a little over 30% charge. After that it drops to just over 200kw for a bit.

So if you're not charging with state-of-charge below about 30% or so, then you won't get the peak listed.

As noted, you will never get 350kw, as that is not supported by this platform
