We were always going to custom order a 2026. However candidly, and we have concerns for all who might be negatively effected by potential tariff pricing consequences, we decided now was the right time for us to proceed, both specifically because of that possibility AND positively because of all...
Side note: That is one great looking car thermacnut. Ever since they showed your exact wheels on a reveal Macan, they have such a strong pull every time I see them.
All vehicles are deliberately overinflated for transit purposes, and as Sergey noted and my experience too, is tire overinflated is the very first place to diagnosis and hopefully solve a big piece (maybe all). of your harsh rides. Some have found that deliberately underinflating a pound or two...

I almost bought it, but while great options not the ones we would have chosen. Needs replacement charging port (now en route from Germany) but otherwise pristine. At Rusnak Porsche. I have no relationship to this dealership but since it is looking like tariffs could rock Porsche pricing...
With the new Cayenne EV to be publicly shown later this year, this is a double surprise IMO. And an excting development. Also announced that the Cayenne will continue in an ICE form at least until the endo of the decade. Thanks Motor1 for the following...
We all hope that when we get the number of first quarter of this year MacanEV sales, that there is a good amount of them, that Porsche would not have stated Macan EV’s only from this point forth (except in the U.S. and other limited markets) if they did not already know internally that this...
The number one factor in avoiding flats is LUCK!. The # 2, 3 and 4 factors for flat prevention:
High quality tires, having enough tread, and keeping them properly inflated — with all three being extra critical for our heavyweight EV’s.
I see so many on forums talking about how they due to...
Thnk you very much Dave for a super infomrative thread. During the warm summer time when we do most of our road trips, for we noticed at one point your temp it was 57 degrees, that even those of us with 22” wheels will be obtaining 300 miles on some trips. On our road trips we typically stop...
Whether you even need RWS is so much dependent on your garage,driveway turns or not and whether you live in a sharp turn large urban enviroment or do most of your driving in the country.
I am very sorry for everyone who has had a problem with their 2024 or 2025 Macan EV, Glad to see a few of you have had your issues resolved. Hopefully as suggested earlier, they are going to soon get beyond these initial growing/learning pains.
This is one of the first times I am glad our...
Even more stupid on our iX which defaults to a drive setting other than “Efficient.” So when we get into it, among several other minor annoyances that also take less than 15 seconds to adjust each time, we change the drive mode to efficient the 95% of the time we are not spirited driving on...
Good plan. Especially since you could pre-set auto raising for specificall known locations for speed bumps, perhaps if you have a steep driveway apron, and similar. Please let us know later how you eventually configured it.
Also if you convert to wider tires, the chances of little rock’s chips coming loose from the tire tread and then sand blasting your paint as they are thrown backwards will greatly increase without the wider OEM arch extensions.
