The "no OTA capability" seems to conflict with comments on Porsche dealers websites - see https://www.porschenorthscottsdale.com/blogs/4011/porsche-electric-model-maintenance-tips/ - but I haven't checked it back to Porsche original content so its not definitive
Is this a real Porsche-sourced report or a hack trying to stir up and fuel some anti-electric propaganda? If Porsche are now signaling they’re back-pedaling on electric, it will collapse the value of Macan EVs? Perhaps time to cancel my order …
An update - the dealer came back with a -10% offer, so now £1,162. In the meantime I've been considering the options, helped by the comments above - thanks for these. So... I could have a fitter move my Nextbase 622GW units from my ICE Turbo to my EV Turbo (awaiting an on-the-driveway quote for...
Rip off indeed - when you're paying close to £110k for the car and they want to gouge a 3 times Porsche buyer for fitting a couple of pre-wired web cams at PDI, I think they are risking their customer loyalty. The emailed response to my suggestion that they might like to re-consider their...
Just been quoted UK£ 1,319.24 inc 20% VAT by the dealer to supply and fit 2 Porsche cameras on the windscreen and rear window, prior to car delivery in March. The dash cams are listed at £401 on the Tequipement website - so that's over £900 fitting charge :oops:. Is that standard/reasonable?
Mine was more a general comment about the multiplicity of legally-compliant safety enhancements fulfilled by software on a control module. You can see them across many of the current generation of cars, with many of these features optionally suspended by manual overrides on screen menus. Not an...
Which most people switch off on most journeys (after forgetting to do it at start-up) by prodding the screen trying to find the right menu …. while they’re driving! Some safety system! :facepalm:
What is the reason for the Macan name being absent from the tailgate of the EV turbo? I specified "model designation delete" in my build, so there is only the Porsche brand lettering. I like the uncluttered appearance (without rear wiper) and no turbo designation but wonder why the Macan name...
Unfortunately, they don't ... I had hoped for the same, to avoid the cost of buying another set of winter wheels/tyres that I have for my ICE Turbo. Looks like my IG EV turbo will be arriving mid-Feb - great to read all the positive reviews, and note a few recurring software glitches that will...
No, 4S ... I went into the test thinking that the EV performance of the 4S would be adequate to offset the loss of the ICE Turbo's, but it didn't, so tried the EV Turbo. No going back after that :devil:
Having enjoyed the performance of a MY2021 Macan Turbo for the past 4 years - I was a little surprised to be underwhelmed by mid-range performance during a test drive in the Macan EV 4S. But was super smiley in 2 test drives (one extended) in the EV Turbo. No clicky pedal either! I'm going to...
