  1. Macan EV Poll: Type and frequency of software-related issues you have had with your vehicle?

    To add to variance, I’m sure there are some issues that few recognize just because they aren’t often using every single feature, or just not always noticing if something is not right. in general though I think it’s encouraging that even on a forum where many people come looking for answers...
  2. Air vents "whoosh" sound

    Weird, I hopped in my car and could not make it misbehave. I know at one point a passenger adjusted the fan manually and it got loud, and it went away when I just put it back on auto. Can’t reproduce it right now. The “soft” and “strong” settings are only fine tunings of the auto mode, not...
  3. Air vents "whoosh" sound

    If you turn the climate setting to auto and adjust the temperature instead, it is a lot quieter. And that’s not to say it doesn’t blow as hard, you get plenty of air depending on the speed setting in the climate menu. I haven’t really investigated why that is but the fans are loud in manual mode...
  4. Macan EV with Thermal Vision custom project

    It looks like we got what we will get on this. Existing smartphone integration APIs can do this, and there are examples of apps (dozens?) putting content on the driver UI. It isn't that nobody has the tools to do something like this, but if a dash cam company tried to distribute an app that...
  5. Macan EV with Thermal Vision custom project

    Perhaps the wrong place to discuss the technical aspects but I was wondering why you were limiting yourself to 13ms, versus something like batching several frames and processing those or choosing every N frames. Regardless it seems like you’re getting good results with YOLO, but I wonder if it...
  6. Macan EV with Thermal Vision custom project

    This is the most interesting part (or at least the most obscure part if you wanted to DIY this) and maybe there’s a reason why it isn’t covered as in depth as the rest. Only a guess but I wonder if it is isn’t something similar to how CarPlay and Android Auto send map graphics to this area of...
  7. What's your estimated range with 100% SoC?

    The person you are quoting is talking about 30C temps to 15C temps. That is not nearly in the temperature range to cause a dramatic, noticeable range change. While extreme temperatures like -28C you mention are going to have a noticeable effect on your battery efficiency, you’re misapplying...
  8. The Ambiguously Grey Turbo

    That’s a nice way of putting it :). I wasn’t really satisfied with any of the color combos for various reasons. I’m not enamored with the look but I like that it isn’t just a basic looking Macan. In the end just decided to do something different, it’s a lease after all. The club leather was a...
  9. The Ambiguously Grey Turbo

    One month in, 1000 miles. Man I love this car. There aren’t a lot of people on here who just post “enjoying the Macan, no issues to report”, you’d be forgiven for thinking that the model is a problematic mess. And maybe some people feel that way. I could nit pick a few things, but for someone...
  10. Porsche NACS complimentary adapter email

    Hopefully not over order tracking of a free adapter though!
  11. Taking my Macan ev turbo to the track

    Yeah I didn’t have to charge the Macan either during my PECLA visit, and we did way more than three laps. Maybe eight, plus the 1/4 mile drag and two of the wet tracks. It wasn’t complaining of thermals or low when we were done but I wasn’t paying much attention to the specific consumption. The...
  12. Front (air) suspension cracking sound over speed bumps

    I don’t know if this is what they were referring to but when I picked up my car at PECLA they preemptively mentioned that I might hear sounds from the suspension when cornering or hitting speed bumps and it was a normal aspect of the Macan EV suspension. I have so far not noticed anything at...
  13. The Cayenne Electric 2026 interior of the "future"- Thoughts?

    There are some shots of a pre-prod version from the videos shared.
  14. What's your estimated range with 100% SoC?

    305 miles/490 km, and I feel like I drive aggressively but I guess not!
  15. The Cayenne Electric 2026 interior of the "future"- Thoughts?

    They should have done the larger main screen seen here (top before the fold) but kept the hvac controls like the Macan, with buttons. Not that I use them much. the passenger screen is too much, if you ignore that then the interior looks more reasonable. Hopefully it is an option or looks nice...
  16. Comfort 14 seats (with massage options) vs Sports seats 18

    I went with the comfort seats because while I like the bolstering in the sport, I couldn’t get comfortable because the headrest was not adjustable, and this is a road trip car so kind of important. I didn’t notice much difference in terms of overall shape. I don’t have a good photo comparing...
  17. Will you trade in your Macan electric for a Cayenne electric?

    As a ballpark, 10-15% more than a similarly equipped Macan? Maybe that’s optimistic.
  18. MY26 software update (week 36) for MY24-25

    I own both of these cars. There’s a lot to like about the EX90, and I’m far from disappointed with it, but I’m always watching for updates because while there’s nothing major there are a few minor glitches and they push OTA updates fairly frequently. On the other hand, I could drive my Macan...
  19. Poor quality wiper blades

    We don’t get a lot of rain, but we get a lot of snow so I guess I’ll see how that goes. The stock wipers worked perfectly in the storm we got last weekend, and the washer jets were good, six strong jets spread out evenly.
  20. Porsche Pulls The Plug On EV’s

    They never should have tried to go all EV in five years, and I understand there was regulatory pressure to try, but they can’t just “do something else” entirely because they decided they aren't good at it or they will become irrelevant. That goes for everyone. Porsche is not a mass market...
