When I initially started reading about more screens and less physical buttons, I had an immediate negative reaction, but I started to offer it a chance in my mind after they talked about the physical volume control and similar switches to control front seat temperatures to our Macan EV.
At this...
I've commented before about how I love the HUD and would buy it again, but I wanted to say that I bought 22" wheels (which came with Continental CrossContacts) when I thought I really wanted 20" wheels for efficiency. The efficiency difference did not impact any of my route planning on the trip...
On the trip from Florida to Delaware, we complained that non-NACS fast charger coverage in Norfolk was weak, and (yesterday) Mercedes Benz opened a 400 kW Alpitronic CCS/NACs site in Norfolk that was perfect.
Mercedes Benz is building 2700 stalls in the USA between now and 2027 and the rollout...
Yes, the Porsche app "needs?" integrated WireGuard.
I pay NabuCasa for remote access to give them some money, but it does come in handy.
My garage doors are integrated with home assistant at home and they work with location identification on my iPhone. So, it should be "easy" (for me) to check...
In the passenger display or the center display, select "Apps" from the list of options and then search for the Home Assistant app.
You need to have a running instance of Home Assistant somewhere to connect to. I'm configuring a user specifically for the car, but I haven't had time to complete...
I installed it today but haven't finished configuration yet. It looks like I can use this to activate my garage door openers automatically, but I'll know more as I work through testing.
The outlets in the Macan EV line stay on while the car's in a sort of drive mode and for a short period of time after the car shuts off. I think, theoretically, if the High Voltage pack is engaged because the car thinks it is running climate and has occupants, the outlets continue running.
So...
I shopped for 14-way seats the same way you did and reached similar conclusions. My Macan EV has 14-way seats without the massage function.
Some people claim the 14-way seats with the massage function are stiffer. I didn't reach a conclusion about that.
It's good to know that the car can do the mountains and how it behaves.
I haven't seen your Macan 4S around Kirkland, but I've been out of town most of the year.
No noises, no squeaks, .+5,000 mile Macan 4.
My only concern is that my battery seems to run hot in the summer, and it is probably a baseless concern. Even my concerns about the 12v battery dying while I am away from the car have mostly (not entirely) gone away after I was away from the car for...
I'm going to look at buying a Cayenne EV in addition to the Macan EV. In general, we would rather live with smaller and more efficient but we will look at the Cayenne EV package.
We also find the Homelink range is very short and prone to not working reliably. We've put a garage remote in the car because we've grown tired of it. Eventually, I'll add something to activate the garage door through iOS on our CarPlay screen.
I watched this less than 12 hours before we drove our Macan 4 more than 900 miles in a single day (today!). Going faster to save overall time (compared to slower driving) does work, but the first DC charge of the day was the only charge to hit 300+ kWs. This real world issue messes with the...
If you would have asked me this question without me knowing it wasn't supposed to work in reverse in a perpendicular spot, I would have told you the only time my car has ever been parked with automated parking, it was done in reverse in a perpendicular spot by the sales guy. I'm sure he demoed...
You do not get pre-conditioning with ABRP premium.
Porsche recovery is included with the Macan EV but it is a true extremely bad outcome if this happens. My wife will never (not for a long time) let me take this car on another trip.
Interestingly, when I installed ABRP yesterday on a bunch of...
