A fun post about Macan 4 delivery from Kyle Connor. One interesting tidbit: I had been saying, I could swear the (USA) Macan 4 does not have the claimed 11 kW AC charger. Kyle mentions for the first time that the charger is 40 amps, not 48 amps. This totally fits with my experience, even though the specs for my build claim 11kW (48 amps).

That would be highly strange for porsche to get this wrong no?

All I can say is the highest charging rate I've gotten on two different EVSE's is 9.3 kW at the EVSE. Both EVSE's are set to 240v / 44 amp. You would think if the Macan had a 48 amp charger, you would see better. I'm a little miffed because being aware of the claimed 11 kW charger, I had both units hardwired so I could exceed 40 amps, and now it appears that was not the best move.
