I've never test driven a Turbo but I have a 4 and I find it has more power than I need but I do agree that the trim levels simply don't differentiate enough with the Macan EVs. It's both a good thing for everyone but a bad thing for Porsche's business model. The only short term solution is to...

Agreed. I do not want new features, just stability and bug fixes. Cars need to be stable and just work. Adding new features, simply introduce more unforeseen bugs and given how slow the update process is for Porsche, not what I want to deal with years down the road. If they had regular OTA...

Got the same email, would be nice if the software was more stable after this, preferable to adding more features.

It was in the low 50s. ACs can generate cold air very quickly, since it's just reversing, shouldn't the hot air also get generated quickly?

I assumed since there's no engine, an EV will generate heat right away when you turn on the heater but it took like 5 minutes of driving before I sensed warmer air coming in. Was hoping a benefit would be no longer having to wait for a warm engine but is this not the case with EVs?

Same, got mine today

Just don't drive over a dirt road unless you want to look like something out of a Mad Max scene.

The loud air noise you're hearing is basically the combination of the entire cabin's airflow. It seems the air is funneled from behind the instrument cluster somewhere to the entire cabin so even if the driver's vents are low, if you have air flowing in the other seats, it'll be loud to the...

Self cleaning driveway was why I got the Macan, you didn't?

Not a big fan of too many screens. I feel like Macan EV is about the most I'd want. At least they didn't put a giant flat tablet as the main console.

You've always had USAA come out cheaper than GEICO or Progressive? I have never had USAA cheaper than those two but I'm currently using USAA because their umbrella insurance was a lot cheaper. If I didn't need umbrella, I'd have stuck with GEICO/Progressive as they have always been less for me.

OEM parts sounds really good but seems they only support about 8 or so states. Bummer.

Yes when the fan is on the higher side, it's very noisy and annoying.

I don't know the exact conditions that raise/lower it but I do know that when I'm on the freeway, my suspension is lowered even though I keep my Macan on normal mode 100% of the time. So that means there is at least one condition where if you're above X mph, it automatically lowers the...

One thing that makes the camera feel even worse is the frame rate. I don't know the FPS but it's pretty low compared to some other model's I've seen/been in where it should be like 60 FPS for a premium experience.
