Maybe the Italians know something no one else does...hum I think maybe the software in this case may be more of an Art rather than a Science. ;)
They started to prepare the car on Thursday morning and I could have it delivered in the evening but I can’t be there. Friday at 9 I got delivery.

Lucky you. I am in the first batch delivered to Western Canada (maybe the same batch for all Canadian dealerships). They got the cars last Friday and started tinkering with the software the following Monday (7th). I was to pick my car up Tuesday but they could not load the software properly. Going on day 2 so we shall see.

2021 Tesla model s, macan ev turbo waiting for software update at dealership
Country flag
From what I have been gathering or concluding from all online sources while I am painfully and patientlessly waiting for my turbo to have a controller replaced because of software update not going through. Car has been at dealership three weeks exactly today and god only knows how long more. Funny thing while I am typing this post I got a call from my dealer tech informing me the controller has been shipped and is on its way from Germany to the USA!!!
anyways I think there is a huge problem with some software update in so many or maybe most Macan ev first batch worldwide. Now is it purely software issues or combination soft and hardware god only knows. I just hope that whatever the issue is that Porsche and its techs figure it out and not ruin my first ever Porsche experience. I hope that the cars that managed to get the software update would not end up with problems because of the controller my car is waiting to have replaced. Even worse after all that wait I end up with more problems even with the controller replaced!!! Keeping fingers crossed.
