I totally agree with you @MatC21
Macans are nice to drive? Yes!
Porsche has roots and history? Obviously!
Porsche were almost affordable sport cars, and turns to be a brand with very expensive SUV branded as sport cars? Apparently
etc
but, the industry has changed, the technologies and...
Don't overthink it, it's just another issue related to the soft and/or the bms and/or the battery and/or whatever causes that...on specific cars.
Mine is often (very) pessimistic , have a look, 12% for 60 meters :
@DTaxman no problem at all, I totally understand your POV, and I find it heartening to see that the vast majority of Macan EV owners are satisfied rather than dissatisfied with this expensive toy
bad luck, I’m not in that team!
Obviously, cars are cars and their first purpose is to be driven...
You're right @Awaz, but you know, the WAF must be taken into consideration. She was scared because of loss of power in several circumstances, and she doesn't want a Porsche EV again, because of that, and because of Porsche France and dealership bad behavior.
you can fool her only once...
Some...
Obsolete is a personal thought.
'To me, a one year old connected object, even if it's a car, that is not able to be updated on a regular basis is obsolete.
My point is NOT OTA or real new features, but just improvements and adjustments of existing ones to provide customer with polished...
Let's be cristal clear: Porsche France and the dealership don't take their responsibilities.
You are totally right: they expect me to drive, test and eventually crash. There is no problem for them to try and fail to solve the problem, to let me drive a dangerous car between the interventions ...
And they will do nothing for you because they don't have any clue of what is going on.
Indeed, in the end, the only way is the cancellation of the contract with the help of lawyers...
there are several circle of death, and I've experienced many of them with and without partial or total loss of power. the car is dangerous, but in the meantime, the car is a beautiful 140k€ Christmas tree: red, yellow, white circle of death, some delightful bells and always a surprise when you...
Is Porsche Macan the only EV on earth with a BMS that doesn't manage the battery?
Shame on you Porsche for not being able to fix immediately this sort of issue, and keeping your customers in the dark.
Yes, total or partial loss of power, in town, b-road and highway... and several other variants of the red circles. In my case, the car doesn't always shift into neutral.
First, it was rare, and now, it occurs during each trip several times: the car is very dangerous.
4th time at the dealership...
It would be a world record if my unknown new car is worst than a dangerous, not reliable, obsolete and very expensive medium tech brand new macan EV!
My particular macan turbo is very particular
why the hell would we need to change the coolant fluid every 2 years? That's insane and ecologically absurd.
so Tesla : almost never, majority of brands 5 to 10 years... Porsche 2 years, because it's a performance car... ah ah
100% true.
My particular car loses 1% per day since October 2025, after one year without this behavior.
40 watts 24/7 is a huge consumption assuming the car is off.
350 kWh wasted per year is an aberration.
This almost fake maintenance is a cash machine for Porsche (and other brands... Audi is also terrible) that shows their total disrespect of customers...
Porsche should remember 30 years ish ago... Cayenne saved them, not the 911.
EV is a must have to survive in Europe, they should consider that...
Never again a Porsche EV.
My particular car sucks and is dangerous, and beyond that I can't accept an EV car where the software is obsolete after 12 months, where the maintenance/repair costs are so expensive, where the rare software updates change the BMS/SoC behavior in a wrong way.
1% loss...
My September 24 Turbo has got the exact same behavior regarding the BMS and the SoC.
My car is mostly parked in an underground parking at 17/18 C , and the 1% loss appeared after some modules updates on september/october 25 (they were intended to solve my red circle of death problems) and the...
