...so the onswer to "Are model year 2026 Macan EVs problem-free?" is no ;)
And to say it's not refined as Lexus is is interesting, I've driven several Lexuses and it was a horreble experience you'd have to pay me to drive these cars ;)
You can’t do it in PCM. You can use the nobile app to filter if but PCM will override your route.
Only newer cars with uodated hardware will be able to get the software uodate providing this highly advanced feature.
So if you want it you need to buy MY2026.
It was ment to be sarcasric but...
Agreed, in my case having even a light dirt on the car contributes a lot to these systems going off the rails. Another case that shows there are some design flaws in this area.
Yes, the one with more dirt ;)

Notes: (...) In conjunction with Paint to Sample, the function of initiating a lane change via the indicator is not available.
My local dealer told me paint thickness is very important for these systems to work correctly and...
This all comes down to crappy software - it's clearly controlled by something that is half baked. Some people don't mind but there is a ton of such minor flaws that are just obvious bad design or bugs. Plus the lack of OTA updates which could fix these things which you should reasonably expect...
This is an interesting observation - that sales are dropping because simply there are too many alarming stories of issues and people having bad service experience. Look at how many customers report having the heater replaced and often multiple times. I think people who are in the position to buy...
No it's not that. When you park the car and turn it off with a power on/off button it actually turns itself off and all the screens go black. You cat sit in the car after that and it's off. But when you move (to get up and out) it turns itself back on. That's the issue.
This is just one of many small annoyances you just have to accept and forget - this car is half baked on many fronts. Some people don't mind and I would suggest doing the same or else it will drive you mad. Be glad it does not turn itself off while driving ;)
I have one (with air suspension) and it does not help at all.
It's not only driving over bumps but in general breaking over road imperfections.
I think this shows this bulletin is BS. It's not "by design" as it does not affect all cars. I've driven loaners with PASM and air suspension without...
Well, that settles it:

Is it just me or have the mobile app and PCM route planner gone totally dumb over the last couple of weeks?
It ignores preferred charging networks (IONITY in my case), selects charging stations with way less power when literally right next to them are available chargers twice that fast.
On my...
I noticed this part as well. His first review of the 4/4S from the press launch event was like "drives great, like a Porsche". Now the tune is different and he says it's "twitchy" and it's the GTS that "drives like a Porsche".
I would take all these reviews with a grain of salt. The same goes...
Does this known issue have a bulltin number or sth? Any details?
Mine (also October 2024) shows 150 miles (240km) at 80% but it’s winter and i drive on highways.
That's true, I had many serious software issues but most if not all of them have been solved. I think it was due to MY2024 with its early version of the software which was fixed in the following upgrades.
To be honest with you my case was an extreme one but they managed to solve all issues but...
