    I’m confused. I have a lovely Macan EV which I am loving driving. I have solar panels and the UK has been experiencing fantastic sunny weather and my panels are drinking it all in! I have not as yet charged the Macan from my solar system. My late husband had a Hyundai ev and when he charged from...

  5. Car always starts charging immediately despite scheduled charging (car settings)

    I previously had a Hyundai ev. Podpoint charger was set to work during cheap rate times. it was perfect, no problems. But the Macan is just so complicated. Also once I have set up timed charging in the car at night, do I have to cancel those timings if I want to charge during the day?
  6. Car always starts charging immediately despite scheduled charging (car settings)

    I had the Porsche technician come to my home. We cancelled the cheap rate timings on my Podpoint, then set timings up in the car to charge from .30am to 5.30am with a departure time of 6am. The car seems to have a mind of its own. It started charging before .30am(around 22.15pm). The car seems...
  7. 3-prong plug for Macan EV charging kit?

    Hi, I’m in the uk. I kept my three pin lead from my previous car, a Hyundai. I have used with the Macan to charge from my solar panels and batteries. It works but it is very slow! But then it’s power for free so I’m not complaining.
  8. Scheduling charging of EV Macan via app or manually without app?

    Hi David, I have a pod point wall charger which used to be set to Smart with timings set from .30am to 5.30 am. Turns out the Macan did not like being told what to do. Technician came out, no computer with him. He put the timings into the car for my cheap rate And set the Podpoint to manual...

  10. Scheduling charging of EV Macan via app or manually without app?

    I had a Porsche technician come out and set the car to start charging at .30am to 5.30am but he set a departure time of 9.00am and the car carried on charging past 5.30am. The technician told me to change the departure time to 5.30am. Which I thought I did. Now when I have just tried to plug in...
  11. Scheduled charging issues….no options now work

    I’ve discovered that if I don’t set a departure time in the car it continues to charge after my cheap night rate ends. So first night I charged at home I set a departure time of 9am. Where I should have set it at 5.30am which is when my cheap rate ends.
