    Route planner getting dumber?

    Is it just me or have the mobile app and PCM route planner gone totally dumb over the last couple of weeks? It ignores preferred charging networks (IONITY in my case), selects charging stations with way less power when literally right next to them are available chargers twice that fast. On my...

    Do you have drive assists and if so an you comment on how it differs from the previous innodrive / active lane keeping?

    2026 Macan GTS EV Drive Reviews (Videos & Articles)

    I noticed this part as well. His first review of the 4/4S from the press launch event was like "drives great, like a Porsche". Now the tune is different and he says it's "twitchy" and it's the GTS that "drives like a Porsche". I would take all these reviews with a grain of salt. The same goes...

    Chinese software & charging test

    That's true, I had many serious software issues but most if not all of them have been solved. I think it was due to MY2024 with its early version of the software which was fixed in the following upgrades. To be honest with you my case was an extreme one but they managed to solve all issues but...

    Chinese software & charging test

    Well, there is a survey on this forum and it shows MOST participating customers have some kind of software issues, those who don't are in the minority ;) https://www.macanevowners.com/forum/threads/macan-ev-poll-type-and-frequency-of-software-related-issues-you-have-had-with-your-vehicle.23243/

    Comfort Vs Sports seats

    Having driven lots of kms in sport seats in mine vs comfort seats in loaners I have to say sport seats are much more comfortable and a much better choice for an SUV where you sit quite high. Lack of proper support in comfort seats make them uncomfortable in the long run. I would check club...

    Software updates - why is Porsche so far behind.......?

    To be fair there are some important updates pushed for Taycan like WSQ7 update to high-voltage converter, as I understand it improves charging curve on 400v chargers: https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/an-actual-ota-update-for-dc-charging-stability.33296/ It's very rare however and...

    Chinese software & charging test

    You have a point but to me these are not comparable cars. One is a value-oriented sedan, the other is a premium performance SUV. If you compare let's say Taycan to Xiaomi SU7 it's a different story. And to be fair comparing these cars always comes down to value for money which is not, has never...

    Software updates - why is Porsche so far behind.......?

    It's like saying there is no world hunger because your fridge is full. If you ask chat for a summary of reported software issues on this forum alone you will get a very long list. Beginning with many reports of mobile app having problems connecting to the car, plug & charge issues, lots of...

    Well, it's a bit like saying how is a Honda Civic better than a BMW M3? ;)

    Software updates - why is Porsche so far behind.......?

    I think some people are stuck with a vehicle for the duration of a lease. Not everyone have means to just swap cars like shoes. I think this is a testament of Porsche service centers failing to resolve these issues and hence ongoing frustration. This is a forum for enthusiasts, what do you...

    Software updates - why is Porsche so far behind.......?

    Calm down ;) I"m not defending Tesla in any way and I bet you are right. Just saying not all Teslas have these problems just like not all Macans have issues. Stories of Macans almost causing an accident are here on the forum and I've had a situation like that with assistance systems before the...

    Software updates - why is Porsche so far behind.......?

    This was not the point I was making but let go this route - there are 10 mln Teslas in use? vs 50k Macans? I would bet you if there were as many Macans given current track record of this car this would be a disaster for Porche.

    Software updates - why is Porsche so far behind.......?

    I totally get you point and share your frustration. Some people here are overprotective of their core identity. Fact is Porsche is failing to meet reasonable expectations of many customers - especially those who switch from other brands or compare to what is a current standard on the market -...

    Software updates - why is Porsche so far behind.......?

    You could say he got a lemon Tesla and switched to good Macan. There are similar stories in the other direction with lemon Macans that "try and cause an accident due to software issues in basic driving related systems". I'm sure not all Teslas have these problems as I've driven many without...

    all you need to know

    This is an interesting video with a lot of data supporting many discussions here. The only thing I was sceptic was this whole "AI manages you battery health" ;) Somehow the whole software aspect does not inspire my confidence.
