Chatting with a Porsche marketing person, they confirmed the average Porsche customer is about 55 years old.

EV tend to be computer on wheels and as a general rule, we could expect younger people to be more at ease with how to operate them (system wise).

It got me curious - how old are the members of this forum, now embracing (or struggling with) the Macan?

avg porsche owner being 55 yrs, is why we can't use this forum, or any online forum, as a barometer of anything when it comes to the car.

Is that because only 50+ folks use forums now days?. I've been on mailing lists, usenet, then forums since the early 80s and still find the forum format most useful for tech topic than some like facechat or talkingnet groups, although they can be more social :)

Yet the results so far are in line with the real world:
- almost 1/3 of users here are 45 and younger
- 1/3 of users are 46-55
- a little over 1/3 of users are 56 and older

This forum *is* representative of the Porsche customer base, age-wise at least.

Edit: interestingly, when I posted this, there were 65 votes.
With the additional votes, the 56+ tier is reaching almost 40%!
