22kW AC charging - it’s fkng criminal in 2024 this is not available.

I hope this is NOT the case - what if you choose a specific charger based on cost/nearby facilities and it won’t PC as the car didn’t choose it for you.

Good to know and it’s definitely something I would like to choose (cool factor only) but it’s one step too far. I put more faith in semi-autonomous driving (which you can use/not use, as you see fit), than a sensor or stuck motor that won’t have had as much development and testing.

I'm not speccing the powered port door for this reason - prone to failure and what's the manual release mechanism?

Drove the Turbo and 4S at the PEC in Silverstone today - they had slots 24-27 Nov for potential customers referred to them (Porsche GB) from the relevant Centres. Both excellent cars but of course the Turbo was brutally quick and!

That's a plus for me. I test-drove a Taycan and the accelerator pedal-angle caused some minor pain. +1 for the Macan EV. EDIT - I just got in my car (BMW iX3) and realised instantly it has a floor-attached pedal - DOH! Most of my previous cars have been BMW so this is actually what I am used...

Turbonite blades - why would Porsche spec that as a marketing car?!

I was on Octopus IOG but moved to Agile. It was great to have lower overnight for everything, but we (I) soon got bored of doing the washing and drying overnight and the daytime rates are horrendous. Agile is sometimes more expensive than SVR in the peak period (4-7pm) but even then, IOG is...

Was contacted by Porsche GB and got an invite to drive the Macan at the Silverstone Experience Centre and have breakfast/lunch there too. Surprised as I haven’t ordered one (and I may even wait for the Cayenne EV), no idea how I was chosen. They had a few time slots on 25-27 Nov, so they must...

And significantly less space.

If I can wait (release date driven), I’ll wait for the Cayenne EV. More spacious and a better interior.

Debatable but if it’s your thing, so be it.

Saw my first Slate Grey Neo today ? This has ruined it for me!

Better than an X5? Be amazed if that is the case.

Looks like a horror film set with that much red. Red suits a sporty and more compact car.

If only there was an option to have no sideblades. If I wanted a Citroen, I’d get one.

No chance! Even the Turbo has a better range.

I think I’ll get the Race-tex wheel, saw and felt one in a Cayenne and it’s so much nicer. I can handle a bit of looking after it and besides, it will be a leased car.

iX3 range isn’t great, one of the reasons I am looking forward to my lease ending in 18 months.

If you think the Macan battery is small, try the iX3 at 77kWh!
