Seems mostly UK cars are being delayed.

chat- in the UK App we have the ability to set the preconditioning of the car to any temperature - heat or cool and whether to heat both or 1 front seats.

I made the mistake of buying Lexus’s new EV - RZ450e. It was one of the earliest in the UK in June 23. It was a good car but very poor EV. I sold in Jan this year at 20 months old and it had melted to a RV of 55%. Resigned to not changing car for a few years yet !

Prudent - I read that and was little confused as it also says in the manual it can be turned off whilst parking. It also says - Activating and deactivating hazard and brake assist Hazard and brake assist is automatically activated after readiness for operation has been established. The system...

You can see from this video the reason the Porsche Press Cars are inevitably Turbos with £ 25k of options. Surround view cameras are options on most cars, rather than standard and rear wipers as an option is because a lot of buyers prefer the look without.

The video clearly shows that the car didn’t cut in front. They were in a line and the important fact is that the leading car was moving away, not braking nor entering the ‘danger zone’. These are supposed to be ‘aids’ not cause an accident. The guys on the video stress that they have made...

The video also talks about a similar incident before, when it emergency braked despite the car in front being a good distance ahead. As the guy in the video said - it’s hard to imagine a system identifying a face as a pedestrian about 2’ from the ground.

What Car are a respected car review magazine & video site. This video is clear evidence that so called driver aids can be and are dangerous when being over cautious. Mercedes defence of its emergency stop is really desperate. This video is a little long but I think it demonstrates the issue...

I think they are suspending the upgrades because its a waste of money, I dont belive its fixing enough things to warrant the costs of deploying it. In my case - they have suspended it as it bricked 2 cars. I suspect that somebody tinkered with the update to ‘improve it’ and caused the issue...

In a German forum someone reports Porsche stopped rolling out the update. Their appointment was cancelled. Anyone else experienced this? My car was due to be updated today, got a call from the dealer early in the week suggesting I rebook. They had updated two cars and it bricked them to such an...

If you go to the UK configurator and look at the technical data for a turbo on standard wheels then select 22” spider wheels the range reduces by 22 miles. So, that would be the minimum I guess.

My 4S at reasonably mild weather is reporting a total range of 320 miles

My car was booked in for the update this Friday. The dealer just called and asked me if I wanted to rebook for January. They had previously carried out the update successfully but they have 2 cars that were just updated and the cars have totally shut down. They cannot restart the cars and they...

I didn't agree as I was not aware of the two extra 'campaigns' and when I check the vehicle for recalls on the Porsche website none of this shows up. I think you’ll find that campaigns are not for safety issues so they are not recalls nor urgent. My dealer made sure they would have the...

A decent first look review of the Macan EV GTS

my thoughts are a product of previous purchases where I bought new cars at a great discount as the model was about to be upgraded. False saving though as when I came to part ex the dealer inevitably said ….. if only it was the updated version it would be worth more !

I think I’d pay the £ 2.50 and stay warm at midnight ! I can only think Porsche wants to put 25% minimum charge in just in case the car is going to stay connected, but not charged for a long time.

What I don’t get, is why owners think that because an upgraded and more expensive model has a particular functionality that this should be available to all owners. When I ordered, I didn’t see anything about a future digital key being available at no cost.
