    Should I upgrade to the S ?

    It's amazing how much more efficient EVs are in comparison to ICE.

    Should I upgrade to the S ?

    In Germany you would struggle with range :CWL: . Just wonder for how many minutes you can drive Turbo at top speed.

    Dealer versus insurer versus DVLA

    Didn't know this exists/existed in UK as well, was used to it back in Germany to be able to kind of choose number plate. Will ask my Porsche dealer.

    Dealer versus insurer versus DVLA

    Strange, mine was very competitive. Also included some perks like GAP insurance. Must be regional.

    Will all macan get the GTS PCM update that gives you charging speed based on the battery's temp?

    Computer manufacturer doing this all the time, but I agree, it’s risky for car manufacturers. Don’t forget, date is golden master release. Just wonder how they are driving curved display. Implementation looks really cool and extremely functional. This would be a lot of work unless manufacturer...

    Will all macan get the GTS PCM update that gives you charging speed based on the battery's temp?

    I assumed based on functionality needed for Cayenne and went backwards. Of course, all the features needed can be developed in house and ported on any Android version. It’s open source after all.

    Will all macan get the GTS PCM update that gives you charging speed based on the battery's temp?

    Read an article, seems Rivian platform not coming anytime soon due to VW 12v platform. So had a brief look at Android Automotive (seems they are stuck for a while), it appears some features (scalable UI for curved screen) of Cayenne EV would require Android Automotive 25Q4 which was just...

    Will all macan get the GTS PCM update that gives you charging speed based on the battery's temp?

    I assume all software engineers are currently working "hard" to get the software for the curved display over the finishing line. They will keep on beating the dead horse (sorry, wrong phrase as this software platform was never really alive) until joint venture with Rivian bears fruits.

    Will all macan get the GTS PCM update that gives you charging speed based on the battery's temp?

    It's a tough one, I looked at the GTS and really like the subtle changes. In a world that has been significantly shaped by the iPhone, most of us expect free GUI upgrades (not necessarily functionality, but improved usability and reliability) over a certain period of time. Some of these changes...

    Front (air) suspension cracking sound over speed bumps

    It exists, not a big problem unless you face 10 plus speed bumps in short succession on your street ;-). Never had a problem with mine (off-road one) or on loaners but when I see some parking bays at shopping centres it’s really easy to damage front lip. An SUV is an SUV, if you want a sports...

    You are being sarcastic aren’t you?

    Front (air) suspension cracking sound over speed bumps

    This was exactly my problem. We test drove a few Macan and only Macan RWD had no such behaviour. Must have been without PASM according to document. Wonder if this is now fixed for MY26 or even worse for GTS? Standard front lip is way too low for SUV and speed bumps in my area are way too high...

    MY2026 Macan Delivery dates

    Emden is a smaller German port with not to many car carriers. Just use a ship tracking site and look which carriers just left after you get milestones.

    MY2026 Macan Delivery dates

    Sorry to hear but 27th wouldn’t be so bad after all as you would get 26 reg in March. Around December they had problems transferring cars from port to dealer. Worth checking.
