I suspect you are right on the software bug. The frustration comes from being BETA testers while paying so much money. It's my fault for being overly enthusiastic in ordering and purchasing a launch luxury vehicle. Three weeks ago, I purchased a 2026 Toyota RAV4 PHEV XSE sixth generation and...

It may "remember" past consumption or specific to and / route consumption too. It certainly appears to retain "past" information that negatively affects the range output as we poor saps are having to manually reset the BMS through the up and down re-calibrations that are being discussed at...

Interesting... I checked out the links and they are / seem directed towards and for the Taycan. The Macan does not have an intelligent route planner and from what I have observed, it is mostly disingenuous at best. As far as your claim for taking "weather" into consideration. Porsche does...

Yep! I hear you loud and clear. This is my third EV and I still own two (well 1 ½... the Macan is a Piece of Sh*t to me). Unfortunately, your experience is what is expected from a car that cost many of us $100 a day to lease at a rate of 4.99%. From what I am reading on this Forum I am not...

By driving experience you are including my experience where it took 11 hours to drive 500 kms when it would have taken 5 ½ in a Chinese BYD.

What is the source of the information you posted? My Porsche app downloaded owner’s manual does not display that info but does mention the content being created using AI. Not trying to be rude with you nor trying to discredit your contribution. I am simply trying to figure out how this...

...speed changes, for sure. However, elevation changes and weather conditions - I doubt it very much. We're in the realm of ABRP here and I doubt they sold any data to Porsche. The problem I reported is an easy one: the BMS is not in sync with the actual battery SOC. I can't have more remaining...

The route monitor shows a battery remaining of 56% at destination but my actual battery level is 42%. What exactly is the route monitor battery % reflecting? Anyone with road trip experience and knowledge appreciated.

Had an issue with battery balancing (200 km range @ 100% SOC and charge speeds on DCFC 300 kW chargers providing less than 30 kWh) and ended up taking car to dealer to see if their PIWIS would indicate some required updates. The technician noticed that my PCM route/charge planner had a...

I feel the need to chime into this thread. Just last week, I drove from Montreal to Saguenay, Québec, a ~500km road trip that should have taken six hours with one stop for recharge but took 11 hours to accomplish. Knew nothing about high-voltage battery SOC balancing / resetting etc... it's...

But it looks like two tabs that need to be squeezed and the entire flap mechanism simply pulls straight out.

I think you are bang-on! The intermittent plastic flap is a PITA.

The electric charging port door closes automatically after 5 seconds after removing the vehicle plug. The small plastic cover for the DC fast charging is spring loaded to close automatically after puling the charge plug but sometimes remains mechanically latched open. This has happened twice and...

Did Porsche cover the entire cost of the repairs on warranty?

I used my infrared thermometer and the steering wheel temperature reached 40°C. The heat distribution was not equally distributed around the steering wheel. It also took approximately 15 minutes to attain any sort of appreciable warmth. Test was done in my garage, which is at 15°C.
