Just checked the other threads, so "normal mode" will not save your presets, but sport will - oh well was worth a try.

Hi All,

I didn't spec the sport chrono pack to get the sport+ setting.
I've noticed when I set the dial to sport the suspension is only at the low setting and not the lowest.
When would you set the air suspension to the lowest setting - track only?

Cheers.
Lowering can help range -in the Taycan as you might be aware the Range mode lowers the car to the lowest setting (Sports Chrono or not) as drag is reduced. It's contribution to lower consumption is hard to measure - somewhere around negligible.

Low is the 'lowest' on the Macan

So potentially for consumption and tracking but that's not where you'd normally find a Macan EV I suspect. Therefore the boffins have decreed no need for a Range drive mode and no need for a low setting (as standard) due to the lack or contribution it makes - my guess only.

Good plan. Especially since you could pre-set auto raising for specificall known locations for speed bumps, perhaps if you have a steep driveway apron, and similar. Please let us know later how you eventually configured it.

Suggest to use SmartLift (geolocation based) for regular lifts - driveway, speed bumps etc.

I use it 100% reliably on my Taycan and have tried also on Macan EV.
