MY’2026 Configurator Changes - New Macan Options Added

[daveo4EV]

No mention meaning they are not switching to NACS yet? Or is it just a missing detail? I suspect the former, but weren’t we also supposed to have NACS adapter support by now?

if they don't mention it I'm going to speculate that J-1772/CCS1 on Driver's side, and J-1772 on passenger side remains the "norm"

NACS adapter support for North American supercharger is still MIA with no announcement date - but the Adapter is now listed as an Owner's manual download with all the gory details in the myPorsche app…

so is the nacs desire simply to use Tesla chargers?

what is the benefit outside of the established locations?
aren't tesla superchargers lower rate than other CCS DC chargers?

yes and no - but they have more locations, mores stalls, and greater reliability - also the entire North American EV industry is moving to NACS native EV ports - and all the charging networks have announced NACS cables will be added to sites soon/eventually…

so NACS _IS_ the future and will be more than just Superchargers

the NACS design has superior ergonomics and fewer reliability problems for public use due to the lack of moving parts on the cord design (CCS1 has moving parts that break when dropped rending the entire stall useless until. new cord is installed with a functional non-broken connector)

it will also be for "slow" charging…

VW/Audi/Porsche have announced they are moving to NACS - the question is "when" and what model year will it debut?

Rivian/Lucid/Hyndia/Kia area already shipping NACS native EV's in North America (maybe others as well)…

J-1772 is destine to be the USB-A of the North American EV world, while the rest of the world and new products are shipping USB-C connectors…

Still 2025 model in the configurator here in Italy.

Leather seats back too for those who wish at $1,740 (USD).

Really hope that 22kW for Europe is there, even a cost option but probably not likely.

Guess it's time to sell the old '25 and get something new!

and right on cue - a clear admission that these things have been problematic…which I believe explains their absence from the Macan and MY'2025/2026 Taycan's

For those who were hoping for some nice new color options, I guess the popping Chalk will have to do.

the factory color palette reamains "muted" - but there is always PTS…

UK still shows 2025.

For me, I will look at 2030 model, not before

Heard from a source in Sweden that resellers will have access to the new configurator on Friday but only from them and not for the public. My source was surprised about the release in US and thought it was by mistake.

The resellers here in Sweden have no information about this new changes and this was all new information for them. More information on Friday hopefully.

Porsche remains hopelessly confused about 9.6 kW vs. 11 kW onboard charging - listing the MY 2026 Macan as having "both" -

it has "both" as it is charging with 11 in the eu

Carmine Red has also been replaced with chalk.

Looking at my 2025 4S build after the MSRP increase, price hasn't changed significantly. Delivery fee went up $355, colored seat belt $20 more, and Innodrive, now called drive assist, went up $120.

Along with the price increase and name change the Innodrive option is now GJ7 instead of GJ6, so there may be some new features.

If they are hopefully GJ6 can be updated to GJ7 with software update. Also hoping the digital key is available to those with comfort access via software update.

I'm surprised they didn't increase the price further since this was an opportunity to do after the 15% tariff being finalized, and all other models had significant 2026 model year price increase before the more recent MSRP increase.

Interestingly the UK configurator hasn't been updated to 2026 yet, so maybe US did jump the gun.

Picked up mine yesterday…can’t they let me have more than 24 hours of that new car feeling
