Created by a Firefighter to lessen risk exposure for his colleagues and himself. Already field worked for one EV vehicles fire, and already purchased by 11 fire departments. Will it become a key tool for battling this major issues.
I had never before driven any Macan EC other than a turbo (on test drives and our own). So with over a $31,000 MSRP price difference I expected a whole bunch of differences.
To start, apologies for this thread’s length, but maybe a sentence or two might be useful for some…
How wrong to think...
We saw last week a Hagerty video in which they measured it at 2.8 seconds in a comparison test with other EV’s. Here’s a fun one by Ian McAlpine. He says he got 2.95 seconds for his attempts.
Reflecting the following written statement that Porsche sent out to its U.S. dealerships yesterday, I noticed that between this morning and the last hour, that configurator pricing just now reflects that 3.6% increase. Here’s a restatement of that written Porsche statement to its dealerships.
Many of us were sorry that Papaya is gone. As red was a macan color since its first 2015 beginnings, though curiously missing on the EV, perhaps a replacement color (we hope there is one) for the 2026+ models might be a red? I hope so.

True that there have been some Macan’s with issues with outside components, but I just finished my first thorough washing of mine. Even when completely finished the job, there was not one spot where I had found a paint run, not one location were I found I a panel that should have been slightly...
We just love our Macan EV. Handles, brakes, steers and accelerates terrifically. As I just wrote to a friend: “You know you really are happy with your new car when you look forward to a 2:45 AM opportunity to drive it (returning my sister for the 1st airport out flight out of the day).This...
My COPO Macan came with some PPF on the front. But due to a couple of errant rock chips during its first owner’s life, there were two ugly scuffs in it (one on the front center fo the hood, another on the top of front fascia — but also in another very visible place. Also the piece on the hood...
Through the miracles of our new world, just started to watch this at 35,000’ … Hoiwever the creator has made it only view-able while on YouTube’s own channel. But using its title there would get it to you.
