I think the whole steering makes a huge difference. Out ix has a Strange behaviour reducing power while cornering. Imho the ix is really different to Drive. A Little Bit more like a s class, compared the Macan feels more like a hot hatch. Everything imho….
both nice cars, dont get me wrong. We although have a 12/ 23 Cayenne S.
I really doubt you will feel any difference in normal day to day driving (I find the ix in sport with 22 inch already on the limit for normal use) … If you live somewhere in the mountains where you even need to be mad to drive the speed limit I can understand, but where I live with normal roads … zero chance I will feel the difference, will the Porsche be sportier more agile, sure, but 99% of the time most of us will not have a change to experience it 99% of the time … Comfort is more important and I’m curious how the Macan will hold it’s own … Having an iX I can already feel me being claustrophobic in the Macan 😂

LOL :cool:
I dont fully agree with you, but for sure this can claustrophoic :eek:
Hopefully starting from next week after I can be more than just an armchair expert 🤪
Had the same discussion with Lotus Eletre owners, they all claim it drives way sportier than an iX, well after a testdrive I could not feel the difference, except the Lotus had trouble keeping those 23 inch wheels on the road when the surface was not 100% perfect … so I cancelled my pre order

Are you sure the 12.8 meter is without ras, this is the default turning circle for a iX40 which doesn’t have RAS …
No, I’m not: I’ve taken the specs of the iX 60 which has RAS standard I guess. But can’t be sure
