    Macan EV Key Fob - photos

    Frozen Blue is not even listed as an available color. I feel left out, but my wallet approves

    keeping car a/c on while running errands for family/pets in car?

    There seems to be confusion here. On the Exit screen you can click the switch to leave the car running. This warns that the car is not locked AUTOMATICALLY. You can absolutely lock the car manually when you are outside the car The pre climate is not required for any of this. Click the switch...

    Marques Brownlee's Auto Focus Macan Turbo review

    "I could only find a charger to give me 100kw, so this car is likely only good for around town" Seems like a bold statement to make for a 280 mile range car (EPA) that can charge faster if you don't just head for the Tesla chargers!

    Persistent Warning Lights

    Someone in Canada(?) had a problem with no-regen happening - I think it was sticking in the mode where it uses the brakes at startup to keep them clean. How they got that fixed may be documented on this forum if you can find it. The spoiler deployment speed chart is around here somewhere too -...

    2025 CPO Low miles - battery health at 85% - is this ok?

    Based on the context from the screenshot, that looks like the 12v battery. Unless there’s some aftermarket traction battery available that no-one has mentioned here.

    Battery cells reset/rebalancing after erratic SoC readings

    This has been mentioned on other battery loss threads. The car's BMS is using power to balance cells as part of it's normal operation - and this generates heat in the battery. In this case, it never stops balancing, and does this every night, losing 1% each night as it does this continually...

    E-Shift on 2027 Macan? (answer: NO)

    The State of Charge range test got 343 miles on a Macan 4 with 20” tires at 70mph (112 km/h). That’s 3.6 miles/kwh The BMW is in the same general range of low 3 miles/kwh as the Macan for day to day summer driving. Small differences can make these numbers change a lot though, the consumption...

    Macan 4S EV range drop

    Why did you pick 3 hours? The Taycan instructions say 6.5 hours, and the very recently issued Cayenne uses 1 hour. I’ve never seen 3 hours mentioned, and I’ve always used the longer time, preferably overnight to give it enough time for the balancing process to do its work

    Lugano Blue GTS Macan review video by Motormouth

    There seems to be a law for online EV discussions: Eventually, every thread ends up arguing about One Pedal Driving. My annoyance with many OPD discussions is that most people online, like this review, call this 'regen braking', when the 2 are different, but tied together in most cars - but not...

    What feedback are you getting about your Macan EV? Cars & coffee, out and about, etc.

    I do get asked about the Frozen Blue a lot. It's not a big deal, as this isn't the most 'interesting' car I've owned. My BMW Z8 got a LOT of attention wherever we drove, and with the roof down, people talked to us everywhere. I'm sad that cars are now almost all some sort of white/black/shade...

    PCM screen grab rather than photo (iPhone/CarPlay)

    Well that's surprisingly useful.

    Google Maps (via Carplay) suddenly shows up in driver display

    This thread has been tracking the Google Maps app usability for some time https://www.macanevowners.com/forum/threads/new-google-maps-now-worth-using.25406/

    New Google Maps Now Worth Using

    After the latest Google Maps update, it did for me for a minute or 2, and then CarPlay went away entirely. Don’t know if it’s related, I will investigate a bit more Edit: The second time, CarPlay kept working for the whole short trip.

    Black dashboard

    Yup, me too. October 17, at the supermarket. I think we should avoid supermarkets, just to be safe

    New VR28.13 SQ4 update

    This is very clear that this is simply updates to the PCM. I've received some of those for the Macan - yay, a YouTube update! My recent full reset also caused a message to popup about navigation map updates being available. Edit: I needed to update my Wifi settings, and then reinstall some...

    Looking for guidance, how is dashcam added to 2026 Macan GTS EV with factory connection

    I can't imagine Porsche has made innovations in this area for the 2026 model (this seems to be a standard across all modern Porsches, except for the fuse locations that are model specific, and unlikely to be different for the 2026 year) There's this thread for general use of the dashcam prep...
