And the PCM can connect using 5G – where as the current Taycan is limited to 4G.

I would think the Panamera is the new design language and the Macan is adopting it. The "gas" icon is likely to be the one they use that has a plug at the end of the hose: i.e. an EV. I can't find the exact one – but a little like this:

It will be interesting if the navigation routing options gives more control over charing networks, etc

I agree. But the touchscreen on the Taycan doesn't bother me too much. I just wish they'd get rid of the "touchpad" part of it (or allow us to select options) and replace it with more media control buttons. The advantage of having a screen is you can refine and innovate and they have done ZERO...

I wouldn't think it dims it too much. I can't imagine turning off the Passenger Display would give you even 10 more meters of range!

I feel that on today's Taycan RANGE mode doesn't deliver much outside of limiting top speed (and turning off passenger display/dimming headlights) – since they rolled out the update to make RANGE mode rear wheel biased and instantly de-energise the front motors.

The new Pilot Sport EV tyre has had a Macan (NE0) type rating for nearly a year now. https://www.michelin.ie/auto/tyres/michelin-pilot-sport-ev?tyreSize=21

All the PTS 911's are painted at the Taycan paint shop. The regular colour 911's being done at the older 911 factory.

Some better charger filtering – though no obvious sign of "IONITY" only option yet – maybe its just a scroll down away.

Ah, but do you call it a Wunderbox in a German accent ?

When you think in km/h – initially, these mph numbers always look low enough.

Is that damage not on the wrong side ?

From range anxiety to altitude anxiety.

How do you reach for The Reacher?

Actually, I was being a little pessimistic on my Pirelli P Zero's – they have 5.5mm of thread left on them after 8,500km. They'll hold for this season any my upcoming road-trip. I am still surprised there is no 21" Michelin NF0-marked offering.

That's good to know as it would be the NF0 tyre I'd move to. One reason for sticking with NF0 is that I'm a bit nervous of having an "normal" tyre shop handle the sensitive carbon ceramic discs on the Turbo S. Porsche Centre's use special long bolts when removing the wheels to eliminate the...

Nope. Mine has been rock solid stable – keeping its pressure to within 0.1 bar for months at a time.

I always found it interesting that my Panamera Turbo S came from the factory with just "N0" branded tyres – missing the model variant bit. Not sure what the thinking was here – just some "generic" Porsche spec tyre?

Same here and the quick wear – thought I still have some thread left – is the reason I'm starting to hunt around for options. Normally, I wouldn't dream of straying from NF0 branded tyres – but I'd love to put Michelin's on the car and these specialist EV ones is defo giving me food for...

While looking at various tyre options for Taycan I noticed that the relatively newish Michelin Pilot Sport EV tyre is available in NE0 variant. "E" being the Macan model. https://www.michelin.ie/auto/tyres/michelin-pilot-sport-ev-2?tyreSize=21 Good chance some electric Macan's will come with...
