I can’t get interested in the gimmicky e-shift while people keep reporting bricked cars due to mysterious software issues. I want quality, reliability, more range. MY28 better pull a magic rabbit out of Porsche’s hat. The bmw i3 has 250km more range than a macan gts for almost a third of the price. Does the Porsche drive better? Sure. Would I buy one over the i3. No!
I guess it depends on what you want from the car.

To me the extra range is completely irrelevant. I rarely need the range available from a full charge, but I enjoy the driving dynamics every time I'm in the car.

Would I welcome extra range? Sure. Would I give up the driving experience for it? Absolutely not.

But I get that some people need more range than what the current Macans provide. I have a good friend who had a Tesla Model X, and while he loved the car he got extremely frustrated with its relatively slow charging. He drove hundreds of miles per day for sales visits and got tired of spending 30 to 45 minutes to charge the car enough for the trip home or to the next customer. He actually went back to an ICE vehicle that he can fill up in five minutes.
