    wow - you got 225 kW @ Tesla Supercharger - this is _big_ news…I wonder if hte supercharger was delivering 800V or if the Macan supports 250 kW @ 400V - wow wow wow!!!

    [North American] - Macan does NOT support 11 kW charging??? Home / Residential charging update (using Tesla Universal Wall Charger)

    all - please vote in the new poll - I'd love some data… https://www.macanevowners.com/forum/threads/poll-porsche-charging-specification-lie.18170/

    [Poll] - Porsche charging specification lie? Macan is not allowing 11 kW max charge rate - capped at 40 amps? 9.6 kW max rate.

    given testing I've done and others it appears Porsche is shorting us on the 11 kW onboard charger claimed in Standard equipment and the owner's manual. My 2024 Macan Turbo does NOT in fact support 11 kW charging - I can not get it to exceed 40 amps (9.6 kW)… this poll is to establish if...

    [North American] - Macan does NOT support 11 kW charging??? Home / Residential charging update (using Tesla Universal Wall Charger)

    9.46 kW is 40 amps or less - battery should charge at virtually any rate up until 97% SOC…I've never seen the charge rate drop below 20 kW at fast chargers until after 95% SOC - so with max rate being 19.2 kW with AC charging - battery SOC is an irrelevant data point for L2 charging of 11 kW or...

    [North American] - Macan does NOT support 11 kW charging??? Home / Residential charging update (using Tesla Universal Wall Charger)

    small nit… what your'e seeing is 9.1/9.2/9.3 kilowatts (kW) not amps - these kW numbes correspond to approximately 40 amps @ 240 volts the Macan appears unwilling to charge above a 40 amp limit - we have no idea why the cap? it's either hardware based (shipping with a 9.6 kW onboard charger)...

    [North American] - Macan does NOT support 11 kW charging??? Home / Residential charging update (using Tesla Universal Wall Charger)

    this is _GREAT_ information - your voltage wont' vary much from your 16 amp EVSE - any chance you can test your Macan on your Volvo EVSE and see what it reports and the car reports? I'd save the money on an electrician - and simply purchase a multi-meter - any decent multi meter will show raw...

    [North American] - Macan does NOT support 11 kW charging??? Home / Residential charging update (using Tesla Universal Wall Charger)

    I see 9.3/9.4/9.5 kW reported by the vehicle on my 48 amp EVSE I see 9.3/9.4/9.5 kW reported by the vehicle on my Porsche 40 amp EVSE (PMCC) the 48 amp EVSE has the same charge rate as the 40 amp EVSE…in both cases it's seems to be reporting the "raw" power being provided to the vehicle.

    [North American] - Macan does NOT support 11 kW charging??? Home / Residential charging update (using Tesla Universal Wall Charger)

    yes - EVSE are more like a water valves (think automated irrigation controllers) and less like a water filters - they do not modify the electrical current/flow/voltage - it’s up to the car and its software to behave! The power from the grid simply flows "through" the EVSE but it's not...

    Wallbox Pulsar Plus - not liking Macan 4

    could be because the Macan is drawing slightly more power than the WallBox is advertising - my North American Macan draws 40.7 amps from the Porsche Mobile Charger Connect (PMCC) EVSE when configured to provide only 40 amps - this is not a big overshoot and unlikley to be an actual electrical...

    [FAQ] - North America - I'm a new EV owner - what home charger (EVSE) do I want?

    these threads are long but thorough and have been well received in the Taycan community - using the included EVSE w/Macan (the Porsche Universal Charger (PUC)) - but some owners have wanted options and a deeper understanding of the choices - these threads go over those choices…...

    Tesla Universal Wall Charger Gen3 - you can "share" upto 6 of them "sharing" a single circuit capacity this is your path forward…multi-EV household charging happiness enPhase/ClipperCreek also sell "sharable" EVSE's - multiple EVSE's charing a single circuit capacity (they call it "share2")...

    [North American] - Macan does NOT support 11 kW charging??? Home / Residential charging update (using Tesla Universal Wall Charger)

    11 kW on baord charger is AC DC charging is upto 270 kW - and my Macan has done 275 kW once… this has nothing to do with the DC charger.

    [North American] - Macan does NOT support 11 kW charging??? Home / Residential charging update (using Tesla Universal Wall Charger)

    it should work - none of these chargers are vendor specific - at least they are not supposed to be - for North American they all conform to the J-1772 standard for charging an EV - if there was no standard you couldn't use public chargers…

    [North American] - Macan does NOT support 11 kW charging??? Home / Residential charging update (using Tesla Universal Wall Charger)

    please call or write and if possible have local service center document that you can not achieve an 11 kW charge rate as promised in the Macan's standard equipment specification… to our European owners - can anyone in Europe document (potentially w/screen shot) that they can charge at 11 kW...

    [North American] - Macan does NOT support 11 kW charging??? Home / Residential charging update (using Tesla Universal Wall Charger)

    I just got off the phone with Porsche North American customer service and a Macan EV "expert". The expert told me that the maximum charge rate of _ANY_ EV in North America is 9.6 kW - when I asked them then why the Cayenne eHybrid, Taycan charge at 11 kW - they had no response. I also asked...

    Macan 4S vs Taycan ST 4S -- my impressions & review

    the "Missing" auto-regen in the Macan is "mapped" to the "diamond" button - it's not missing - it's just assigned to the diamond button - or if you're using diamond button for something else - it's software button on the PCM screen great review BTW - I agree with all of it! Wife and I are very...

    [North American] - Macan does NOT support 11 kW charging??? Home / Residential charging update (using Tesla Universal Wall Charger)

    can not tell because voltage is not reported - PMCC showed 40.7 amps - no voltage information - and the Macan shows 9.3/9.4/9.5 fluctuating - with out the actual voltage at the moment we can't tell if the Macan is pulling 40.7 I just know my Taycan never pulled more than 39.7/39.8
