  2. VOLCANO GREY Macan EV Photos Thread

    Congrats!! I’m still very happy with my Volcano Grey 4S which I’ve owned for about three months.
  3. No New CarPlay Coming to Taycan (or Macan?) in 2026

    These articles aren’t encouraging for those of us hoping for a new version of Apple CarPlay to be released on 2025 or 2026 Macan EVs: https://www.theverge.com/news/635940/porsche-2026-911-taycan-infotainment-pcm-alexa-carplay...
  4. Sirius XM

    You can use either the native Sirius app within PCM (which comes with a 3-month free trial subscription) or through your phone via CarPlay.
  5. Porsche Electric Sport Sound always defaults to OFF

    Yeah, that’s the main reason I didn’t include it in my build. I rarely use Sport mode and wasn’t likely to manually turn on the sound every time I drove.
  6. Macan 4S EV Detailed First Impressions

    Agreed. I do think Porsche should give drivers the option, however another positive feature of no longer having strong regen is that my passengers don’t get motion sickness in the Macan EV. My family dreaded riding in my Tesla since they always got car sick with rapid deceleration and...
  7. Macan 4S EV Detailed First Impressions

    I did miss one-pedal driving initially but have gotten over it after two months of driving the 4S. One cool feature that makes it a bit more like Tesla braking is that you can firmly hold down the brake pedal when you’re stopped at a red light and the Macan will go into Hold mode. This allows...
  8. My first Porsche, critique my spec

    Congrats — looks great!
  9. My first Porsche, critique my spec

    @pearson1995, leaving rear wiper and insulated glass range debates aside, have you decided how you will modify your build?
  10. Dashcam installation issues -- fuse box location?

    I’m interested in installing a Blackvue dashcam as well in my 4S. I was considering the DR970X 2-ch LTE Plus although I saw this recent video from CES 2025 mentioning that Blackvue is likely to release a new product line in April. I want to view the camera remotely when parked for days at the...
  11. Seat belt hook cover (no more hook slamming against pillar)

    The ones from Amazon which I mentioned above did require stretching to get the seams to fit together and included small pieces of double-sided tape to keep them in place.
  12. Seat belt hook cover (no more hook slamming against pillar)

    Yes, I bought those exact ones on Amazon. It’s a very tight fit but they do work after stretching them a bit. I only use one on the passenger side buckle and bought a sliding clip for the driver side seat belt from Porsche (similar to the one in the link below)...
  13. Macan 4S - Sport Chrono Package w/ Push-to-Pass?

    I didn’t think Sport Chrono was necessary on the 4S but didn’t like the look of the blank dash, so I added the Compass option which includes a digital altimeter and clock. For a ridiculous up-charge, you can change the face of the compass (or chrono) to match your seat or seatbelt color.
  14. Macan 4 now or 4S in 5 months?

    That is a significant price difference. In the U.S. the 4S only cost me about $5000 more for comparable options. The OP said price wasn’t a major consideration for him so in that case I think it makes sense to get the 4S. Even though it’s only a 1.1s difference, the 4S felt significantly more...
  15. Macan 4 now or 4S in 5 months?

    I’ve driven both models and definitely think the 4S is worth the wait given the significant difference in acceleration and nominal difference in price.
  16. Under Door Puddle Lights

    I too ordered my directly from Porsche. More expensive than Aliexpress but still half the cost of including it in my build. Looks great although note the original lights had a solid red bar showing from the side of the door whereas the new puddle lights have two red sections when illuminated...
  17. My first Porsche, critique my spec

    @pearson1995, I have owned a 4S in Volcano Grey for the past two months and am very happy with the model and color. Here’s my configuration: https://configurator.porsche.com/porsche-code/PS8BQQP9 Your configuration looks great overall. Here are a few thoughts although it ultimately comes down...

    I’ve never had an issue charging my iPhone 15 Pro Max in the Macan’s wireless compartment with the Spigen Ultra Hybrid MagFit case. https://a.co/d/hXl5Zj6
  19. Real consumption / range / efficiency thread … post your Macan EV performance 📊

    My results at 810 miles are a bit worse than yours. Got my 4S around the same time — 20” S wheels, driving in similar temperatures. My recent 320 mi trip averaging 65-70 mph probably didn't help my stats…
  20. Several errors at startup clear after 5 minute shutdown, anyone else?

    Here are the software issues I’ve encountered during the first 400 miles of 4S ownership, all of which have gone away after locking the car and returning about ten minutes later: 1) Assistance Systems Limited (with 6 other related warnings) 2) Right charging port impaired 3) No sound from Bose...
