Have you driven a Macan? It appears from your two recent threads that you are really focused on costs of the "experience" and less on the experience. Having owned both there is one thing I can say for certain - a BMW will never drive like a Porsche. I am now on my second Macan (first was ICE...
The comfort vs. sport seats issue is not so much based on height but more on weight - the primary difference between the seats is how "aggressive" the side bolsters are. If you gravitate to the heavier side you might find the sport seats uncomfortable because rather than fitting "within" the...
Fun video - racing a modern SUV against an iconic Porsche benchmark and showing the potential of new technology. Brilliant! I have no need to read anything deeper into it than that.
I've owned an ICE Macan and currently own a Macan 4 EV. I've also owned 2 Mercedes GLKs and a Mercedes GLC. One thing the Mercedes will NEVER compel you to say is "Wow, this drives just like a Porsche". For additional perspective I've also owned a 718 Cayman, a 992.1 911, and currently am...
Very nice - thank you. If people just want the "bottom line" it's this: Attach the adapter first to the charger cable end then plug everything into the vehicle.
The vehicle you describe IS available - it's called an Audi Q6 eTron. Buying a premium brand like Porsche will always have a price associated with the cachet of owning a premium brand. Individual consumers can decide whether it is worth it or not. These comparisons assume selecting a vehicle...
I have a slightly different perspective but admit that it's based on my "stable" of vehicles. I have a 2025 Macan EV but also have a 911. I would ALWAYS spec a 911 with sport chrono - but I really don't see the point of it on a Macan other than "novelty". Probably the #1 consumer issues with...
No way will a dealer modify that configuration due to liability issues. It would have to be a "custom" job and I think it's doubtful you'd find anyone willing to do it - again, due to liability reasons.
As a side note - I'm sure any VW autogroup vehicle has had the spacing of the brake and...
1. First - try water on a microfiber. Water won't hurt anything - nor will the microfiber.
2. If that doesn't work - try a solvent that is a bit more aggressive. I'm in the US and you're in the UK so products likely aren't the same - but - in the US 3M makes a spray adhesive remover that is...
Macan AWD models have a substantial rear wheel drive bias unless you are in slippery conditions. Most importantly - there is no "Y" in tire.........................
Well, again, my experience differs from yours. Prior to a Macan EV I had a 2022 Audi E-tron (original, full size E-tron). Traded that in for the Macan at a dealer in Chicago that had both a Porsche and Audi store. Vehicle had 30,000 miles on it when traded - the Audi store "Certified" it -...
Tire wear on an EV is HIGHLY correlated with driver behavior. You will hear and read of horror stories where individuals claim "tires wear out in 10,000 miles or less". That is because they are accelerating aggressively a LOT of the time. Drive it "normally" and you'll easily get 30,000 miles...
THIS is the definitive answer. Just a bit of care is all it takes. Just traded in a 2021 911 with plenty of piano black trim - no damage, no scratches, cleaned with a damp microfiber towel only.
I have the all season Michelins on my Macan 4 (21 inch wheels) and find the ride quality to be excellent. For perspective, I've had multiple full size 4WD pickups and numerous sports cars (several Corvettes, Cayman, currently a 911). Ride is VERY subjective - one man's "firm" is another man's...
