Which most people switch off on most journeys (after forgetting to do it at start-up) by prodding the screen trying to find the right menu …. while they’re driving! Some safety system! :facepalm:
This is required by your country. Porsche has zero control.

Maybe it’s better if you learn more your car since you can turn it off directly on the lower stalk… however never said it works great. It a EU requirement not Porsche. ALK works fine

I have now spoken with the salesperson again and apparently, cars in Australia aren't allowed to have Innodrive which makes no sense as so many other cars have this feature
Let's look at AU configurator to find the answer.

AU configurator clearly shows that Innodrive is not an option and since Porsche only packages ALK with Innodrive from factory, there is no ALK functionality available in the country for Macan EV.

Mine was more a general comment about the multiplicity of legally-compliant safety enhancements fulfilled by software on a control module. You can see them across many of the current generation of cars, with many of these features optionally suspended by manual overrides on screen menus. Not an elegant or sensible solution for our now over-regulated vehicles. I’ll be more than happy to use Porsche’s stalk-based approach for this when my Turbo arrives in March
