"The electric Macan is currently undergoing testing and should be available to customers in 2024." Correct and confirmed by the CEO that you "should" see it in 2024. Source: https://newsroom.porsche.com/en/2022/company/porsche-vw-chairman-of-the-executive-board-oliver-blume-interview-30670.html

I sometimes wear this to "match" my Neptune Blue Taycan.

The sub-second is designed to match the optional Porsche-Design clock on the Taycan. https://www.porsche-design.com/de/en/porsche-design-shop/shop/timepieces/1919-collection/1919-datetimer/p6028-1919-porsche-werk-3-zeiger-subsecond2/?variationCode=4056487017266

Camouflage.

I'm long on Porsche (at IPO price), FastNed (a Dutch fast charging company), Albemarle Corp (a lithium mine). Keeping on eye on LG Energy and NorthVolt (for an IPO). I've more work to do, but I'm interested in owning stock in the full chain of EV related activities: raw material mining, battery...

No info on the PCM – and exactly what OS it will be based on – is if confirmed it will be the new (and delayed) vw.OS ? If so, I hope it won't result in Taycan's current OS getting a bit abandoned as I assume that newer Taycan's will eventually move over to it.

12 modules maybe – each with X number of cells?

Peugeot e-208 for city/shopping chores.

There are a lot of rebellions to keep up with recently.

I didn’t realise they had a petrol thing going too! Thought it was only diesel?

Newer cars definitely shipping with newer hardware – but its all so abstract to us end users – its actually difficult to know if its better or just different. FWIW, while its hard to find info on this stuff – Audi publish a bit more (and its the same h/w) than Porsche do, if you do some searching.

Unless you have the "automotive mindset" where taking 75c out of the PCM base cost in a €200k car is seen as "worth doing" and "amazing".

They are so proud that the PCM 6.0 runs as a docker host and all the apps are individual docker containers. They go on and on about it, as if thats a good thing in a front facing "thick client" UI device. When in reality it just shows up the mess that is the individual apps and the lack of a...

Much more likely to be Microsoft. It is unclear (at least to me) is CARID's new VW.OS (operating system) and VW.AC (cloud) actually Microsoft tech or something different...

CEO forced out after supervisory board vote will be replaced by Porsche chief Oliver Blume https://www.ft.com/content/f73ee239-8c2a-4344-b042-2d78c646506b "Blume, who will remain Porsche chief executive once he takes over Diess’s job, has overseen the development and market launch of the...

I'd like a 2 door Grand Tourer Taycan with no back seats but the same trunk/frunk as the current car has. The upcoming 718 derived EV won't have enough storage for me to consider for road-trips.

I think I prefer it to the Mercedes EQS – but both's external appearance are hideous.

The toilet comes as standard – but the Porsche Sport Curtains+ cost €1599

I think you do make a good point here. I wouldn't worry about a petrol vehicle having such a small tank that it only did 400km due to the availability of petrol stations. And I can't safely drive 400km without a break anyways. Here in Ireland – unfortunately the gov has more shiny PDFs plans...
