The EX 60 is currently at the top of my list and I actually have a pre-order in, but even if I decide to go that route, it may not be available when I need it. I'm also thinking polestar three if it is leasing well when I need it. I wouldn't buy one, though. I don't know if polestar is going to...
You must be a most forgiving soul. I commend you.
After test driving a Rivian R2 a few days ago (and it drove OK), I've changed my vote from "I'm moving on" to "I'm not sure." Again, I am one of the lucky ones; my Macan 4 has not seen the inside of a dealership since I picked it up 20 months...
FWIW, one of my few candidates for replacing the Macan is a Rivian R2. I drove one yesterday (local suburban roads only). In that scenario, it drove surprisingly well. Steering was decent. Pleasant enough ride. Very nicely done interior. Lots of room. Comfortable seats. Very clear cameras...
I guess some owners see no signifiant benefits to OTA, or to any updates. Let me ask a more targeted question. Is everyone happy that after 20 months on the road, Porsche has still not released a non-faulty bug-fix update? Again, let us remember, Porsche originally listed OTA updates as a...
Hving the "B" option does not require you to use it. I generally keep recuperation off. But there are certain types of driving conditions where I would like the option to use a "B" mode. My wife's XC60 T8 has a "D" mode and a "B" mode. When in the "D" mode it behaves like the Porsche with...
For me, it's also about money, or should I say value for money. I've owned several Porsches (although all relatively low end Porsches--Boxsters and Macans), so I certainly get that the value of a Porsche is in the eye of the beholder. My problem now is, my choices are to buy out the car...
I love my Macan 4. I've had almost no problems with it; it drives great. I haven't visited a dealer since I picked it up in October 2024. My two year lease ends this October. PCNA sent me an email with lease end options which included releasing, saying to contact a dealer to find out more...
Is the upgrade to 5G after update an EU thing? I have a USA MY24, delivered in October 2024, and it's never been updated, but I have 5G when available.
Honestly, I don't really know. As you can see from below, I've averaged 3.5 miles/kWh over 12,600 miles. This includes very cold winter driving, typically below or well below freezing during winter months, during which I'm closer to 3 Miles/kWh or slightly less. The car is garaged in a heated...
I have a speculative answer for your particular situation. The majority of MY 24 cars were delivered to dealers late September or early October 2024. I bet when your dealer did the initial prep for the car, the reminder was set for 24 months(i.e. October 2026). They probably did not reset it...
On my MY24, on the rare occasion that I do get those icons, I also get a yellow warning message in the right hand tube, and there's also an exclamation point icon to the right of where your display is showing the lowered car level icon. The ! Is persistent as long as the icons are also showing...
Left hand (collision detection) icon normal at start up, usually goes away after three or four minutes. Disappointing to see the other rotating icons on a 2026, but you say they also go away after a few minutes of driving. Do you also get any warning messages on the right hand tube? If not, I...
Yes, correct, thank you.
I will be clear about why I ask: I have a 2024 whose lease is up in October. I love it and I would buy it out if I weren't worried about ongoing heavy-duty depreciation. I am certainly considering ordering a new one (and given the lead times, I imagine I would...
I think regulars on this forum are by now well-acquainted with the common problems that have been experienced in 2024 and 2025 Macan EV's.
Among other things, update-related charging issues, frequent yellow circles, and red circles, charging port issues, rattles, spurious reboots, odd SOC and...
No; since I have been fortunate so far in not experiencing the issues the update is apparently intended to address, and seeing the issues some people are experiencing post update, I am taking the approach of not fixing what isn't broken (i.e. deferring getting the update until either I need it...
