    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    GTS will share rear engine with turbo so possibly closer to turbo for response. HP difference is not everything, 4 feels slightly sluggish as compared to 4S from 0-20 mph.

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    I had the pleasure to drive various loaners for months. Macan 4s vs Taycan 4s - no significant difference except kick start. Even my little daughter noted but thTaycan is dual gear and you feel that kick from first to second. Taycan 4s closest to GTS in terms of HP. Macan 4 vs Macan 4s. 4s...

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Everything said in this thread, only buy GTS if you want 22inch Spyder and exterior Sport Design package. Naked GTS doesn't look to good IMHO.

    1000 mile road trip to Cumbria and Farewell

    My family of four went for a road trip to Cumbria (lake district, an area of outstanding natural beauty for those outside of UK) over half term. Starting from London, it’s about 6-7 hour drive. Highway traffic conditions were perfect on the way to lake district. I charged the car to 100% and...

    Windscreen and rear window ceramic coating - wiper now hitting A-pillar

    Hi, I read a thread about non coating here before but thread didn't come up on search function. Apologies to those who posted before. It't the time of the year where rain is more frequent than usual here in UK. Whereas lack of rear wipe on highways is not a big deal really, rear visibility in...

    Cayenne Electric Turbo EV drag races 918 Spyder 🏁

    I tend to disagree, a meaningful comparison would likely end up in a marketing disaster. Porsche believes 911 Turbo S in the hands of regular customer is quicker around the track than 911 GT3. GT3 will be quicker if driven by professional. 911 Turbo S will beat Cayenne EV Turbo hands down, but...

    2026 Cayenne EV World Premiere 🚀 Up to 1139 HP, 0-62 in 2.5s

    I use Waze in Apple car Play and Porsche Google navigation - both work same time and Waze is automatically on.

    2026 Cayenne EV World Premiere 🚀 Up to 1139 HP, 0-62 in 2.5s

    Turbo will be crazy fast. You may be able to hit up to 3 traffic cameras under 10 sec in London. I have the Macan 4S and the base model sits between 4 and 4s. I should be fine (slightly less HP but more torque) but for you it's clearly a step down (for sure you will miss quick response between...

    2026 Cayenne EV World Premiere 🚀 Up to 1139 HP, 0-62 in 2.5s

    There seems to be some website glitches. I ordered mine with trailer hitch in UK. Different markets have different specs, in particular trailer hitch seems to be different in US as compared to EU and UK. They maybe awaiting approval. Not sure why mood mode is not available in UK, maybe they are...

    2026 Cayenne EV World Premiere 🚀 Up to 1139 HP, 0-62 in 2.5s

    Strange, one reviews mentioned massage seats so may come later as an option. Also not much customisation available yet. I ordered full spec baseline (except expresso brown). Night Vison may be tricky as they can't do all camera functionality with PTS. May come with alterations to front bumper...

    2026 Cayenne EV World Premiere 🚀 Up to 1139 HP, 0-62 in 2.5s

    No need to talk about back, I think top gear was spot on - VW vibes. As for engine, base is good enough as it sits between 4 and 4s. I have 4s but driven 4 for last 2 months. 4s is definitely sportier and more fun to drive but 4 is plenty fast enough. Macan driving experience is as good as it...

    2026 Cayenne EV World Premiere 🚀 Up to 1139 HP, 0-62 in 2.5s

    Back looks hideous, I love Madeira Gold on Panamera but no go due to back. In black it's tolerable but not great. Interior is mixed bag, somehow grown on me. Initial reaction was mediocre. For sure Macan will drive more sporty. Despite the obvious negatives, I consider ordering it mainly due to...

    2026 Cayenne EV World Premiere 🚀 Up to 1139 HP, 0-62 in 2.5s

    It's a battery limitation at the moment, turbo has 800+HP already (600+HP rear engine alone) but they currently limit it.

    My Porsche app: New ‘Online Software Update’ / OTA Function?

    Update available in app centre. Haven't seen this before and thought it would enable some functionality. I didn't.

    Got chrono map and lift update yesterday. Don’t have chrono and not used lift so not sure what’s new.

    Suspension & RWS questions/concerns

    Likely not anti-dive. If it is more pronounced after car is idle for longer and usually while reversing, would have thought it maybe disk rust as well. Will be tricky to demonstrate at dealer. Did you try test run on larger, empty road with series of very aggressive braking? G-meter >1 :cool:
