I have always had my wheels and calipers ceramic coated. Make cleaning them much easier.

which product do you use???

They typically send them to either Spain or Portugal for this where the weather is typically much better.

I suspect the tests have been done but not signed off for release.

This is a post from the last 24h so I'm hoping it's referring to a press event as opposed to more marketing videos (porsche_newsroom IG).

Tip top mate!!!! I'm wondering how hard it will be to keep them clean, I see there is a product called Q2 rim, which is supposed to be a sealing coat for the wheels and caliper, have you thought about this kind of thing?

Little or no brake dust as per any EV (motors do most of the braking) so easy to keep clean.

@Garylaw - I think the 21’s look even better painted satin black (on a GTS here):

Lots of new short videos and images drip feeding online, but still no driving impressions !

@PastaSource, on this picture ^ you are saying the wheels are painted in Satin Black, well there is no option at least on the US configurator to paint them in Satin Black, are you sure this is not actually the default Anthracite Grey, although on the picture they look very satin black? if so, then this looks much better than the configurator showing it to be more like Satin Platinum, which I do like on my Macan GTS ICE.

This appears to be a picture of an actual wheel in Anthracite Grey and it appears to match the look in the picture:

Yeah - they look too dark to be anthracite, unless of course the photos have been 'post-processed', lol, since even the Slate Grey Neo looks darker than normal... there is no option in the UK either to have them black from the factory, but dealers can easily paint the wheels post-delivery - it looks to me like this one has been painted... I've seen a number of Taycan with similar wheels painted satin or gloss black, even when it wasn't available as a factory option.

Actually @SergeyIndy, just noticed your image of the anthracite wheel - does look really dark, if genuine could explain why it's so 'black' in a really darkened image.

Ha, me too, ...
This is as close as I've managed (posted yesterday on IG by motorweek in LA - first drive 'coming soon'!):
