Yep. I just wish it worked on the 2025's. Best I can do from the phone is open the doors. 😕

It was at a hotel 1000 miles away. Was in a different car when it was stolen (Porsche was home in the garage), no ID in the bag and nothing else stolen. I'll take my chances on that part. Thanks for your concern tho. 😑

Has anyone tried to get a replacement fob for the Macan EV? We had a bag stolen at a hotel recently that had our 2nd fob in it. I hear Porsche wants something like $900 for a replacement fob (?!?). No way that's happening. We'll live with one fob before we pay that. Seeing mixed info on...

And to be more precise, that's called range, not SOC. SOC is the battery percentage. Range (as displayed by the range meter, a.k.a the Guess-O-Meter) is the estimated miles the car will go based on recent driving speeds and patterns. (Which of course will vary greatly since most people...

Yes, as a general rule SCs are more dependable, have bigger stations, and better coverage than EA. But on the downside, SCs are slower (don't support the higher voltage of Porsches), you need to use an adapter, and you have to be careful to check that it's not a V2 station (incompatible with...

The Tesla membership costs more than the EA membership ($12.99 vs $7.00). Both knock about 25% off the base price. The base price at each station varies. Sometimes Superchargers are cheaper, sometimes EA is cheaper. Just depends on where you're traveling. And if Ionna is available on the...

As others said, no, you cannot get the membership discount (EA or SC) if you let the car start the session with P&C. If the car grabs the session first, the car's wallet is paying for it (no discount). The way to get the app to grab the session (and pay for it with the app wallet, and get the...

I have the RWD too. We intended to get a 4 but we bought a year ago when ordering to spec means tariff uncertainly so we decided to buy from inventory. The closest car we could find for everything else we wanted was a RWD. And it's perfectly fine for our needs. It's not the rocket ship off...

Yep. They probably intend to hang onto it longer, just like they probably intended to hang onto the Macan for the full 39-mo lease (at least). That's one of the problems with following the latest and greatest so heavily... you get too tempted to jump ship prematurely. It's usually a really...

He's more than just the father of an influencer, he's become an influencer himself (as part of Kyle's operation), with his own channel. As such, turning cars over frequently to make new content on them is part of the business decision. That's one of the ways influencers are different than...

We finally got ours into service to look at it from our instances in Feb and May. I'm expecting they'll just come back and say they couldn't repeat the problem so can't do anything, but thought we'd give it a try anyway since there's a minor recall item to get it on for anyway.

Myself, you mean? Yes, I can replace wipers and cabin air filter. And if I didn't want to, Grease Money will do it for 1/10th that crazy price.

Yes, same deal. $7/mo and it drops the normal rate about 25%. Rates vary by state. You can activate and then immediately cancel it too if you want, which gives you 30 days of membership discount.

We recently passed 23,000 miles on ours and the reminder to service message comes on every time we get in the car (3rd circle on the dash). I looked online at what that "routine" service includes and yeah, a lot of stuff doesn't apply and they want like $1200 for it. Crazy. So of course I...

We're coming up on the 1 year mark of owning our Macan, which means the end of our free year of EA. I figure we've gotten about $3000 out of the perk. We road trip a LOT (about 20,000 miles in the last 12 months). Starting with the next trip, I'm gonna have a whole new charging plan. Ionna...

Until you have to slow down or stop.

Sure, you can mitigate it some. But really no way to avoid at least some cold weather loss, even with extreme measures like not running any climate control or seat/wheel heating when it's freezing out. Preheating the cabin and the battery before the drive helps... for a little while...

Sure, when I say regen in the context of no 1PD, I'm talking about driving style (i.e. using the accelerator pedal to slow the car down since there's no 1PD). Not what method(s) the brake pedal uses to slow the car down. I thought that was obvious, but maybe not to all. What you describe...

200 mile RT commute? Yeah, like others said, you may want the RWD. That's what we have. EPA is 315 but as we all know you almost never get close to EPA at highway speeds. And far worse when it's cold. You can do 200 pretty comfortably without needing to stop and charge in the 315 model, but I...

Unfortunately that's unavoidable in any EV in the cold. So far I'm finding about the same cold range loss in my Macan and my Gravity at the Mach-E (percentage-wise). The Macan (and especially the Gravity) just starts with more range to begin with so it's easier to work around. We went from...
