    Summer time - not updated automatically

    Mine did it automatically, 5 minutes after I started the car this morning. Since it has been in my garage, I think that first it had to lock the GPS signal (from which I think it gets the correct time).

    Both manual charge flaps not opening - Macan4

    I had a problem with the rear left manual flap. Sometime it was just partially opening, few cm, and I had to force the opening, and I was hearing a very bad noise when doing it. I brought the car to the dealer. He discovered that there was a small metallic cylinder into the small gap at the base...

    Porsche commitment in EV market, are we going to be left behind ?

    I am driving my Macan 4 since early November (so one of the 2024 MY). Among the initial (small) problem with the Plug & Charge, easily solved with a rest of the system, the only minor issue I have is that once in a while (I think 3 times so far) the PCM is temporarily showing some errors (I had...

    Both manual charge flaps not opening - Macan4

    The same happened to the door of the charging port of my previous Audi Q8 Plug in. No way to open it. Audi had to replace the door. But I did not put the Q8 on sale after this problem...

    4000km... and a SAFETY fail :-(

    My Macan 4, that I drive since 3 months, showed these safety alerts 3 or 4 times, cleared automatically after few minutes or after switching off and on the car. My previous cars have been an Audi Q8 TFSie Plug In and 2 Range Rover Sports. All of them had the same problem (plus some time a...

    Swap of my Macan 4 to this new 4S build - do or don’t?

    Go for it, even if I don’t like the oak green. I would have changed my order of the 4 (ice grey) for the 4S but it was too late…

    Random daily Macan EV photos - post yours! 🤳

    I took these pictures in January last year in California during a business trip. This was one of the prototypes used for the tests. Inside, the console is hidden, and there is some black tape hiding the Porsche logos and other details. At that time I already saw some of the early videos showing...

    Handy tips when driving the Macan

    Thank you. But I think you have to make a hole in the belt to use it. I would not do it if this is the case.

    Macan 4S EV is a BLAST to drive

    At the time I ordered my Macan 4 the RWD and the 4S were not announced yet (same for the new Volcano Grey Metallic color that I would have selected). I tried to change the order, but it was too late. It would have delayed the delivery of the car by several months and I confirmed my Macan 4. I...

    Handy tips when driving the Macan

    Thank you for the tip. I bought some black leatherette covers for the belt buckles for 10 Euros on Amazon. At least it work for the rattle... :-) I have to check if I can raise the belt buckle on the driver side as well, since it usually fall down to the ground.

    Nope, as far as I know.

    credit where credit is due…Porsche nailed this…

    What do you think it should happen? The car will unlock the doors…. The good news (if it will ever have the phone as a key feature) is that we will have more ways to do it.

    credit where credit is due…Porsche nailed this…

    My son recently got a Mini Cooper SE EV John Cooper style (great car, a lot of fun to drive and absolutely top for quality, technology and infotainment). It does open and close not only with the iPhone in the pocket, but also if I just wear my Apple Watch Ultra, and it works at least a couple of...

    credit where credit is due…Porsche nailed this…

    I think it is just for the US market, where all the cars "chirps" when locked. And it something I am missing on my Macan, honestly, especially since I'm just walking away from the car and most of the times I do not look back.

    Remote Park Assist for Macan EV -- should be available soon

    I really hope that this will eventually be an update for who (like me) opted for the "Surround View with Active Parking Support" option. I park every day in my space in a garage, and it would be very useful to have the Garage Pilot option.

    [FAQ] What exactly does the AR HUD do? [Augmented Reality Heads-Up Display]

    I almost always wear sun glasses during the day (luckily in my city, Rome, Italy, we get a lot of sunny days, also in winter) some of them are polarised. I think that this HUD is behaving better than others (i.e. Range Rover). I still can see it, even if less bright. I think that it depends on...

    Range - higher than expected

    Well, few days ago I charged at 100%, since I had to drive for the whole day. It was telling me that I had 541 Km. but after very few Kms (probably 10) the car started showing 417 Km (temperatures around 4 centigrades, winter 21" tires, Macan 4). I charged the car in the garage, warmer than...

    Any regrets / do-over wishes for your Macan EV specs? …”No Ragrets? Not even a single letter?” …

    I ordered my Macan 4 last June, and I finally got it early November. I spent a lot of time on the Porsche website trying to put together the best configuration for me. Well, you know that we have to add a lot of options if we want to end up with what you really want. if budget it is not an...
