Team,

Now that deliveries are occuring - what is the EVSE porsche is providing along with your Macan - pics of the front and back please (back has specs and part numbers) and if possible in North America any picts of the NEMA 14-50/6-50 power supply cable - in particluar any markings on the side of the cable indicating wire gauge inside the cable…

We don't need multiple pics of the same unit - so if you get the same unit as the pics provided just confirm you have the same unit

But I'm looking for world wide information - any region - but in particular North America given the problems with the PMC+/PMCC power supply cables and such…

Also an inventory of what power supply cables the unit came with - Taycan historically came with a NEMA 5-15 and a NEMA 14-50 or 6-50 cable…

Cable length of the J-1772 cable would also be appreciated - is it the 15-17' vehicle cable or the PMCC 25' cable?

Thanks in advance - any facts/details we can gather will be greatly appeciated.

Macan EV to be delivered…
Country flag
No EVSE included in France.
I will probably buy one from Tesla: it’s compact, solid and not expensive. Just have to figure out if it works with the Macan EV. I‘ll try as soon as I can (by next week?)

Here in Italy they say no chargers will be furnished together with the car, when I discovered it I literally assaulted the dealer until he added one in the order for free…

Macan 4 ready for delivery (2024 09 27)

No charger in Italy (and EU) as other wrote. As @byebye, I will get the Tesla (200€) since I still have two other 16A and 32A connectors. PORSCHE EVSE is overpriced (more than 900€ in Italy) and no reason to prefer it.
I have a GEWISS Wallbox in my garage (7,2kW) and over 100000 kms with my Tesla I used the mobile charger once just to test it.

thank you - 8 AWG confirms thicker wire for better cooling - love the AUDI cable for a Porsche part (these are shared across VW/Audi/Porsche it's the same unit)

thank you for the pics!!! very very helpful!!!!

also the cable looks thicker should run cooler!!!

I can tell you that the cable did get warm during my first charging test. Don't have anything to compare it against so I figured it was normal given the high amperage and 9.2KWH

Looks like the same basic mount used for the Taycan - it should be very easy to quick dismount.

That length of cord from the outlet to the control box looks very short compared to other photos I’ve seen.

that length of power supply cable does not match any past experience with the included porsche EVSE’s - very odd!

also the vehicle to charger cable is quite short - not the 15’ or 25’ cable options

This does not look usable at all as a permanent garage charging setup given short length.
I understand the benefits of a plug-in setup, however clean direct wire with 25 ft cord is best with a 3rd party EVSE of your choice and then keep the Porsche one for travel.

This is my clean setup: direct behind the wall short copper wire, no aluminum pipes, no sockets to overheat, max charging power, and 25 ft cord that reaches 2 cars easily.
