    The 14-way and 18-way seats really don't suit tall drivers

    Iā€™m 1.89 metres and 85 Kg and my front seat (18 way) is fine AND Iā€™m comfortable in the rear seats - how tall are you?

    Macan EV Charger Cover Flap Not Flush

    Yes agreed - I have manual flaps and mentioned it to the dealer in November. I was told ā€œ Porsche is awareā€. Given that in other countries than the UK this fault is being corrected I think that Porsche UK should reach out and communicate with new Porsche Macan EV owners, recall those with...

    Less than positive review

    A critics review will never be the same as a drivers review and this critic seemed to be searching under every stone for negatives most of which were subjective. Who would be pushing this car at 4% charge? Answer = Only someone desperate to find fault. I have a full spec. on my turbo plus 22...

    Insulated glass or rear wiper? (First post by a Porsche newbie.)

    I had the same dilemma and discussed it in detail with the experienced salesman with whom I dealt. Previously had a rear wiper so was nervous without it. Eventually went with the insulated glass (22 inch wheels) and the upgraded sound system. Delighted with result as super quiet car on all...

    Turbo arrives next week - serious concerns

    Three months in - best car I have ever driven. Am expecting mega depreciation but have factored that in. Frunk catch needed some impediment removed before it would open automatically, charging port door edge a little proud but Porsche UK say they know and will fix it. Porsche App I find clunky...

    Loaded 4S or lean Turbo?

    I have a fully loaded Turbo and I love the extra options but I also love the extra power and things that only come with the turbo. If you donā€™t have the extra power then I think you will only miss it in your ā€œheadā€ unless you are a ā€œtrack bunnyā€. Depends on how long you aim to keep the car and...

    MACAN 4S configuration - feedback and assessment

    i have then both and can assure you if I had to chose between the two, then the extended leather package would win hands down. The lights are cosmetic, the leather package is both cosmetic and very tactile.

    Charging info in the My Porsche App does not update anymore

    Glad Iā€™m not the only one with this problem. I have constantly sent reports (I assume to Germany) but never receive a reply. Eventually had a helpful telephone call with a senior manager at Porsche UK and we deduced that as I live in the countryside where the phone signal is very weak (one bar...

    What factory tires are on your Macan EV? Satisfied with them?

    I asked for Michelins when I put in the order but was told it was the only thing on the car that the dealer couldnā€™t specify. I got Bridgestones on 22 inch rims - would like to know why Porsche cannot give customers a tyre option as they seem to like giving their customers options in every other...

    For those of you with Rear Wheel steering... happy with it?

    Tighter turns, easier parking - whatā€™s not to like?

    A slightly different take--I like it -- "2025 Porsche Macan Turbo EV Review | Why it's made some people ANGRY!"

    Been driving my Turbo for 2/12 and agree with most comments - itā€™s a serious all rounder, top of its class. Disagree with positioning of the D, N, R, P - it is completely instinctive after very short time. Overall consumption 2.4miles kWh which goes down on very short trips.

    Problems with Homelink Pairing to Garage Door Opener?

    i am having a problem with my electric gate. I can pair the remote with any of the buttons on the carā€˜s mirror using the home link on the carā€™s console (this is very easy). The button then works for 2-4 times then it doesnā€™t. I have put new batteries in the remote, tried different buttons, the...

    Macan EV Charger Cover Flap Not Flush

    Hi there When I mentioned it to my dealership I was told ā€œPorsche UK are aware of itā€. Later I was told ā€there might be a recallā€. Should I push for more information?

    Macan EV Charger Cover Flap Not Flush

    Mine are manual and look identical (i.e. misfitting at the bottom edge) - will point it out to the dealer on Fridayā€¦

    Macan 4 EV - Octopus intelligent sync issue

    I have a 2024 Andersen A2 unit and am with Octopus. They will not recognise my Macan EV Turbo (they say they may in due course) so I just plug it in and charge the car when I need it - nobody seems to want to help..! Very unsatisfactory..

    Days away from 2025 Macan 4S...wondering if I made a mistake!

    Took delivery of my Macan EV Ice Grey Turbo 3 weeks ago and I am delighted. Drives like an absolute dream. It has a very full spec but depending on your spec I doubt you will be disappointed
