Macan 4 EV
I found a Macan 4 EV on its way to my dealer that pretty much nails the main features/options I would want if I ordered one.

One thing that is missing is the Porsche Electric Sound. (I know, I know it's a gimmick to many...)

Question: can something like that be added via software (since I'm sure that's all it is)?

Regardless, I'm SO excited to be getting my first Porsche in a couple of days!

I actually like having it on my turbo. I have it of when I am driving on normal. However when I want to have fun I switch to sport or sport plus which automatically turns the sound on and I raise the spoiler and let the cars and people around be wowed😉

So far no sign that it will be made available after it’s built. Maybe someone can enable it through PIWIS but nothing official from Porsche.

Asked to my SA while I was configuring my Macan4 and he told me that is not possible to add it after delivery.

When changing from drive mode normal to Sport or sport plus, do you need to select to spoiler raise button every time the car has been switched off? or does the car remember that in certain drive modes you want the spoiler to be raised?

I have the option for the spoiler turned off in Normal and Sport Modes and on in Sport+. There is the possibility to save the Sport and Sport + modification but I think that there’s a bug since it doesn’t save the changes.

increase the volume to max to energize your Bose/Burmester system enhancing the drama playing Shoot to Thrill AC/DC......

I tried saving the spoiler up to the sport or sport plus but it didn’t save. Like what Diego said hopefully just a bug that an OTA update could fix.

I prefer the intro to GIrls Girls Girls by my friend Tommy Lee (Motley Crue). [Yes I'm a die hard hard rock/metal head who still love the Sunset Strip vibes of the '80s 😂 😂 😂 😂 )
