I might quibble with the 99.9% number, but I agree with your basic point. I think it's fair to say at least that the majority of Macan EV owners are not having such problems and in that case it's fair to ask, since everyone has the same software, how will a software update solve anyone's...

Just a data point. October-delivery 2024 Macan 4 here, no email yet.

Well, speaking for myself, I just wanted to assure myself that it works, that I understood how to make it work, and that therefore it will likely be there for me when I actually really need it.

Ashland, New Hampshire

You and I are in the same neck of the woods. I'm planning to just try out the Ashland station in a bit…

I think OP's question has been answered (no "adaptive" regenerative braking unless ACC is active). Personally, I would still like to have the option of one-pedal driving, but after a bit of experimenting, I keep my Macan in coast mode which I now prefer to the weak recuperation mode. Never...

I'm in same boat right now: '24 Macan 4, no email, and I already have a Lectron adapter, which of course I have yet to use. The announcement was unambiguous, saying ALL Macan EV owners would get the free adapter. Also, the universal consensus is that there is no way for the supercharger to...

I will add: not only have 3 reasonably local Tesla charging sites shown up on my Tesla app for the first time today, clicking on a site includes the information "NACS Partner Site. Supported: Ford, Rivian, General Motors....Audi, Porsche."

Here is what is pretty clear at this point (yes, I get that some people were trying to convey this recently, but in a kind of nasty way, while refusing to acknowledge that Porsche caused the confusion in the first place--said confusion being the real source of the original angst). It seems that...

I am more content to pretend that is sarcasm.

Fine but most other EV's in North America can charge at a faster rate than 9.6 kW on a 48 amp EVSE while the Macan cannot. It is what it is.

Actually, I give up. I just downloaded the most recent manual, which still shows the 11kW info. It also says "Only charge the high-voltage battery at domestic electrical outlets if no other charging option is available." Above that, it recommends using "industrial sockets." Below that it...

Yes, but you CAN get 11kW charging in Europe.

I happily admit that my vote for ROFL was apparently completely wrong, so good on Porsche.

BTW, without naming names, someone claimed that PCNA never "advertised" an 11kW charging time in the US. This is false. I don't blame anyone for not reading through this entire thread, but you can look here. Below is a screenshot of the owners manual I downloaded for my car (a US Macan 4)...

Peter, you are not in the US so perhaps are unaware. In the US we can have 120 or 240 V single phase and a range of different amperages. By code, the maximum permitted plug in amperage is 40 A so 240×40 = 9.6 kW. Hardwired, we can go up to 80 A. My EVSE is on a 60 amp circuit and by code is...

^ Macan 4, 20". ^ 70-90F, local and highway, 30 mph - 70+ mph, some city and slow traffic mixed in.

I'm sorry, but this is simply not true (that this is an "assumption"). Who has 3 phase residential AC in the US, and which EVSE in the US is 3-phase capable? Porsche clearly stated that US Macans could charge at 11 kW for many months. They no longer make that claim. This was both in press...

I did this. At two homes! It's not the end of the world, but disappointing and I believe Porsche should find a way to compensate customers who relied on this very clear misrepresentation (which persisted for many months even after it was pointed out).
