tommjw- it looks like our cars may be shipped together. My order is frozen. The App is saying my 4S is going to reach build on the 27th and on the way about 2nd to 4th Feb and arrived in dealers sometime between the 1st and 12th March. Fingers crossed.

Do you get any heat or aircon with Eco Plus - I read on here that it closes the fan off and vents closed but the dealer has told me it just reduces the heat or aircon, not turn it off. That struck me as sensible as if all it did was switch it off you could do that anyway. The reason I ask is...

Call me old fashioned but no HUD and a speedo on an iPad, I’m not sure I could get used to that. I test drove an Audi that had digital ‘mirrors’. I had to take my eyes totally off the road and look down, couldn’t see me getting used to that. Asked the salesman if the cameras were heated and he...

As I have ordered a 4s I’ve been viewing a lot of reviews on YouTube. I found the Edmond’s one to be highly biased against the car. If he wanted a track drive he should have driven a Turbo In my humble opinion. The reviews that I find the most informative and are wholly independent are the Out...

Yorksjar - I have Michelin Cross Climate 2 tyres on my Lexus RZ and I have found them to perform well and be quieter than the Dunlop Sport Maxx summer tyre fitted - I have looked to see if the CC2's are available for my Macan 4S coming in March with standard S 20" wheels - they are BUT I think...

Apologies for my ignorance but I haven’t got my S yet. In my Lexus RZ Apple CarPlay the Apple Maps cannot show satellite view. Is the Macan the same, so you can get Maps in the screen and HUD but not in the main screen as satellite ? My Range Rover would display satellite view BUT it consumed so...

Darren. I switched my order from a 4 to a S and got a cancellation allocation. Order is now frozen and delivery expected between 22nd Feb and 10th March. Sounds like our cars may be in the same consignment.

Darren - many thanks, just what I wanted to hear. Thanks again

Darren. I have a ‘draft’ order and paid my deposit Last week. I have spec‘d a 4. How long after having a firm order / allocated build date will the actual build date be ? My dealer (who I trust as he never says what I want to hear !) told me that he can guarantee deliver in Q2 but is hopeful...

Been quoted £ 700 from Admiral in the UK and existing insurer NFU (much better cover) is £ 1,000. I have been refused by other insurers and also quoted £4,000 !

ukdriver - your all seasons - did you put them on and are they Cross Climate 2’s ?

Thanks - I found that but find it a bit frustrating that I couldn't scroll through the document, having read the page I have to return to the index. I’ll not waste anymore time trying to find a download and just use ‘Good To Know’.

soundman - the CarWow range challenge found the Macan real range to be 320 miles in fairly cold weather with heating set at 20c at a steady 70mph all on motorways and taking the battery from 100% to 0%. It beat the Model Y by 24 miles. You’ll see that he found the ‘guessometer’ to be pessimistic...

Is there a pdf of the book ?

I think you’ll find that without preheat all EV’s take ages to produce warm air. I was told that as EV’s don’t have an engine to take the heat from this will be the case. Apparently diesels take longer than petrol as they take longer to reach temperature. But I know nothing !

Yves- thanks for that so if you need heat the range dives by about 50 miles. If that is the case then I may rethink getting the Macan as Lexus solved this on the RZ so on Eco heating only reduces range by about 10 miles. Thanks again

I have just ordered a 4 so have no real experience of the car. One question I have is - when I test drove a 4 the range increased from 250 to 300 when I put the ac / heating on Eco Plus. I looked for this function as my Lexus RZ is exactly the same. My question is - what ac / heating do you...

the UK normal home charging is £ 0.28 / kw (35c). There are much cheaper off peak rates but in my case they charge more for the peak rates. Porsche have a tie up with Ionica and new cars get half normal price for 3 years. Normal Ultra chargers are circa £ 0.80 a $ 1 / kw. Petrol is £ 6.80 /...
