I’m having the Macan without the rear model badge but keeping the Electric one on the side. Wasn’t overly fussed either way but thought the Porsche letting would be more of a focal point and wouldn’t conflict with another badge.

The Macan EV comes with 2 types of badges:
- Model designation in the back
- “electric” on the sides

In some markets, they can be deleted at order placement while in others, it has to be done post delivery.

Are you planning on keeping all, some or none at all? Any reason why?
In the US, you can't delete any badging, at least according to the online configurator.
I'm blacking out the PORSCHE lettering in the rear and coloring the "electric" and "Macan 4" badging the same color as the car.

I’m doing exactly the same on Volcano grey.

Looks Sharp. Mine just arrived to dealer yesterday morning - hoping to take delivery tomorrow or Tuesday. Here‘s how the body-colored badges look.

Sweet! Great color.
For me, waiting is about 4 months.

I keep the electric and replaced the model designation for “electric 4S” the reason is that in the city, I park in garages and my own apartment in areas for only electric cars, and no every one knows if the Macan is electric. Btw the car plates in my city are the same for all cars.

I have all badges - I kept the electric ones as idiots in some cities have been slashing wheels on ‘gas guzzlers‘ particularly SUV - I hoped, knowing it was electric would deter them. I also got the EV ‘green stripe’ on the number plates for the same reason.

I am probably in a majority of 1, but I have the model badge on as when I see de-badged Merc’s and BMW’s I think that they are the lowest spec engines pretending to be something they are not. I still find it amusing when I see a A180 with fake AMG badges.
