I used my infrared thermometer and the steering wheel temperature reached 40°C. The heat distribution was not equally distributed around the steering wheel. It also took approximately 15 minutes to attain any sort of appreciable warmth. Test was done in my garage, which is at 15°C.

The Dolomite Silver or GT Silver are classic Porsche colours and my favourite. The GT Silver is not offered on all models but the Domomite Silver usually is part of the no-cost palette on the configurator. The car looks clean even when not...and when the sun shines, the shades are incredible...

Hello Reno, Here in Montreal, Canada, which is part of the province of Quebec, the law requires all passenger vehicles to change to winter rated tires between 1st Dec to 15 March. This perennial tire swapping causes excessive tire and rim wear & tear and major headaches when most drivers wait...

I ordered my Turbo one year ago when it was a launch model with very few deliveries in Canada. The day I drove out of the dealership, my spouse said she could not see what kind of vehicle I was driving as she followed me back home. The black on black is almost a "DELETE". The light strip in...

I have a very similar interior setup as yours including the Burmeister. The addition of the Glacier Blue lettering on the rear hatch was a good choice as the Turbo comes with black lettering that blend into the piano black trim and become invisible. I ended up buying the blue lettering and...

Good idea 🤔, I have a laser thermometer. I will check out this morning and post a picture of my results.

Good to know guys, thanks. I spoke with my dealer and will compare mine to other EV's next time I am there. I think the power output may in fact be correlated with the OAT.

I find that my heated steering wheel temperature feel is not nearly warm enough. I operate the vehicle with the cabin temperature around 22 C, so I am not sure if this is preventing the steering wheel from warming up to a higher temperature. My 2025 Volvo XC40 Recharge has three temperature...

I purchased the 7000TL bundle for lifting capacity. EV's are really heavy with empty weights hovering just over 5000 lbs. The 5000TL is limited to 5000lbs. I did not want to risk the vehicle falling on top of me. I also own a 2023 Volvo XC40 Recharge (EV) and after doing the measurements...

The Club leather interior is by default "extended" with higher quality smooth leather. In the Macan Turbo's case, it is also limited to a single colour which is entirely in Truffle brown including the stitching colour minus the steering wheel which is black. If you want to change the stitching...

So how does one control the battery temperature with the Sport Chrono package? Sport Plus mode with performance-oriented chassis tuning, Porsche Active Aerodynamics (PAA) and temperature control of the battery Track Endurance Mode: preconditioning of the battery for improved performance on...

I got as much leather as I could in Club leather truffle Brown including back of the seats, seat consoles, center console. I even added the decorative stitching option. I messed up the fixed luggage compartment cover because I thought the Turbo model cover would come default in Race-tex like the...

I got mine in leather covering. They are a great party trick but the thin leather is easily damaged.

My dealer ordered me a "Porsche" clip for the driver's side off of a 911 model. I installed it on the driver's side belt and it works well to keep the belt buckle from falling to the bottom.

Dealer told me that if the charging flap for DC charging breaks off, a replacement requires removing the entire charging plug.
