I think most here would say āyesā - I went for this and the rear axle steering as well more from the performance handling aspect.
Although it depends on your build and whether you think necessary. This is my first (gateway) Porsche so I just wanted to be able to spec a vehicle I would be happy...
Personally I loved the brown, so had no hesitation in optioning with my build - my visit down to my dealer to look at the physical samples just help confirm my selection.
My only other consideration (thanks to one of the other threads) would be to have the seat inserts in a different colour -...
Being my first Porsche, I knew I wanted to have the Chrono option included. As others have said in other threads, I found it to fill that dashboard space nicely - plus the fact that it availed a couple other modes also helped ease the decision.
But everyone has different priorities/aestheticsā¦...
Would have loved to get my hands on the Xpel Fusion PPF - but isnāt available in my market (Malaysia) - only have the Ultimate Plus range available - so probably will have to do a ceramic coat on top of that (Xpel Fusion or other).
Iād say the same is apparent throughout the world - so long as there is the āPorscheā logo, itāll command a premium/mark-up of 3-4 times.
For reference, Iāve been quoted
~USD $2,462 for the mobile charger (22kW)
~USD $1,231 for the Dock
Which is actually more than people in North America pay...
As per the other thread, believe theyāre backlogged and stopped accepting new orders for them on the following option (for whatever reason).
I thought option was cool, but personally couldnāt justify the additional amount they wanted to charge for something that would hardly see the light of...
No Charger or cables provided with my Macan either (Malaysia)⦠SA asked me to consider the Mobile Connect charger⦠Leaning towards third-party (Wallbox Pulsar Max) at this stage but will weigh the pros and cons.
Congrats! Whilst waiting for delivery, Iāve also committed to a full car PPF (Xpel Ultimate as well!)⦠Totally agree on your point on workmanship being the differentiating factor.
Will be the first vehicle Iāve owned to have PPF (usually just ceramic coat) but canāt wait for delivery - my...
Now that we finally have the first Production Units finally being delivered, do we have any better idea of what ācuratedā Apps are available for installation in the vehicle?
Whilst we all know YouTube, Spotify are available (and widely publicised from the start), Iāve always wondered whether...
Unfortunately, i don't think that's a normal option (limestone beige) - on the standard configurator for the Macan... Perhaps as a Sonderwunsch (read: more $$$ IF you can get a slot)
Based on the Taycan and Panamera pics i'm seeing though, you're right in that the limestone would probably be a...
Hehe, hopefully time will prove us both correct in terms of the actual colour :)
I think dealers worldwide tend to order stock car interiors in black as it's the most 'unoffending' colour (or lack thereof) there is... Even when i was looking through the build list of cars my Dealer had ordered...
Thanks for sharing - The following video also popped up on my YouTube search earlier and like most forumers, think we're just glad to get any extra snippets/morsels of info that we can at the moment whilst waiting for delivery of our own cars...
On the colour, i agree it does the 'chalk beige'...
Yeah, i guess this is what you get for a global supply chain and the fact that the batteries (cells) themselves are only one cog in the larger 'wheel' of the BMS (Draxlmeier)...
On the Draxlmeier plant in Leipzig, my thoughts were also initially that it was 'exclusive' to Porsche (they seem to...
Honestly it probably seems like the most plausible explanation.
Hard to verify until either the Draxlmeier confirms (unlikely) or more probably a Macan needs requires battery servicing and then we can look at the cell manufacturer label (also hoping that won't be for a while)
Think i understand the confusion...
All the quotes for 380 Miles range (even in the article linked) are using WLTP, not EPA testing standard. Figures quoted in this thread are the official EPA standard - what i'm taking as the most 'conservative' benchmark of the 3 'Standards' (NEDC>WLTP>EPA)...
Hi All,
Yet another ājust wonderingā question (whilst waiting for delivery) - but I had always read that the Battery for the Macan was to be supplied by CATL..
Per the EPA Testing Data results sheet (as posted by @JayGT4 in the EPA Thread), Battery Manufacturer is listed as "DFS Draxlmaier"...
Awesome find! So at least we now have the EPA numbers as well!
Can imagine a lot more info will flood out over the coming weeks as people start taking deliveries. Itās going to be an agonising wait for those in the build queue (like myself) but will be good to hear/see the reviews on how the...
Seriously bummed if this is true - i also would be tempted to just wait if option were unavailable.
Could ask what production month your build slot was for? Mine apparently is later this month (September) - so Iām also just waiting for confirmation now (based in Malaysia).
Will update back if...
Thanks for reminding me to circle back. My SA told me that the pre-wiring is for BOTH the front and rear cameras. So there is some hope after all.
Hopefully with some of the first orders being delivered this month, weāll be able to get some concrete confirmation (either way).
