    Thule Roofbox experiences & compatibility

    First proper use in the last few days. Love it. Noise is almost nonexistent until 80 kmh. Starts at 100 kmh to get louder but still fine at 120 kmh. Consumption is roughly 10-15% higher.

    Are model year 2026 Macan EVs problem-free?

    Afaik there is already an issue with the trunk not properly closing occasionally on MY26 models. Apparently related to the digital key, deactivating that helps.

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

    It is incredibly unlikely, actually almost impossible that the Cayenne is using Android Automotive 25Q4. Especially legacy manufactures are not moving _that_ fast. It's not even possible in respect of timelines of homologation and market introductions. I'd be surprised if any Macan or Cayenne...

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

    Well understandable if one does not have proper OTA capabilities. Getting all cars into the workshop is incredibly expensive. Which is why I believe we will never see any more Macan updates. As CHP wrote, the platform is dead and Porsche has no clue how to write/deploy Software. I doubt the...

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

    Well I contacted the heads of PR for the electric Taycan & Macan globally (the one that appeared in the car maniac video) and got forwarded to customer care. I was not talking about local sales from my PZ. But happy to contact their development lead as well, I just dont think it helps. It does...

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

    No, I was in contact with Customer Care of Porsche. Well, I raised it that I would love to see the charging planner improvements. They told me that it is „technically not possible“ (which is bullshit) and won’t happen. They also recommended me to use the App instead which I find hilarious. Sure...

    Thule Roofbox experiences & compatibility

    Mounted it for the first time today. The L box fits very well, I could have definitely fit an XL easily. But it looks great and suits the size of the car but XL wont look to big either.

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

    Sure, that is one way to look at it. I am still disappointed to not receive the charging planner filters, that is literally the only feature I would really want from MY26. And that is impossible to require a hardware upgrade, that is pure software. I expected Porsche to deliver such things via...

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

    I asked Porsche (the manufacturer, not my dealer) about it and they confirmed that older model years will not receive the „new“ software from the 26 model year. We will only receive bugfixes (if any) going forward. That means explicitly no charging planner improvements, no GUI improvements, no...

    VR28.13 Software Update

    This is true. As much as I love my Macan and Porsche in general I am not sure I would go with one of their EVs instead. The Taycan quality is disastrous and the Macan is not much better. Having to bring in the car for a Software update and not even receiving the latest My2026 update is just bad.

    2026 Software Update via Dealer - What does it do exactly?

    I actually reached out to Porsche and received a reply. They confirmed that MY24/MY25 will only be getting bugfixes and small improvements going forward. No major updates are planned. Only MY26 receives the 'new' software with the improvements to the Charging Planner , Digital Key and other...

    Steering Wheel Quick Access button- double press

    Funny…and at the same time they allow touch screens on the steering wheels 🤣

    PASM with steel suspension vs air

    Just buy a mercedes if you want more comfort. I absolutely love my Macans air suspension, I think the suspension is what sets it apart most from other cars, absolutely perfect.
