I probably don't need subwoofer often, but I need a lot of storage space for longer trips. Is it possible to remove the subwoofer temporarily using regular tools or is it bolted in the trunk permanently? If yes, does the audio work without subwoofer?

Idk. But i wouldn't be surprised if the amp was part of that whole unit under the trunk. If the amp is removed, I'm thinking nothing with work, as it's prob a multichannel amp,, controlling all the speakers. If that unit is only the sub (which I doubt), then yes everything should still work w/o it.

The subwoofer can definitely be removed. I also think the amp on the subwoofer enclosure is a separate amp. The main amp for the other speakers should be located somewhere else.

The subwoofer/amp/enclosure looks very similar to the older macan system, I bet the main amp is also mounted on the left side near the tail light.
