  1. Impact of cruising speed on range

    Hi to All. I’ve tried both local roads and motorways with and without cruise control Settings whether summer or winter. Non cruise control gets best mileage/range including 70-75 mph. I believe two factors contribute: 1. Cruise control maintains constant speed, so never regenerates...
  2. [Thoughts] - Macan 4 Loaner vs. Macan Turbo EV (owned)

    Great insights. Am relieved to learn. Never had problems with Porsche spare parts prior to recent times. I guess I was a bit too cautious on spare parts availability for parts that a smaller % of total vehicles sold would carry like thermal glass. Less than a week works for me...
  3. Plug & Charge now available for Tesla Superchargers via Porsche Charging Service

    Hi. thanks for your additional insight. to be clear, the pricing with and without memberships I cited for EA and Tesla are specifically from my memberships and billing summaries. not general assumptions. hence, I stand by my data, with proviso I noted, that these prices I shared are based...
  4. [Thoughts] - Macan 4 Loaner vs. Macan Turbo EV (owned)

    Hi to All Super helpful and very informative reviews about Porsche Macan EV models. thank you all! some thoughts from the peanut gallery (aka me 🤣): when ordering my 2024 Macan 4 EV to built in the 1st week of commercial production, my dealer principal told me that Porsche Hybrids had their...
  5. Manual charging door not opening

    Hi. couldn’t agree more: love to drive my Macan 4, but can’t if I can’t charge it! as said before, and am sure most hate me for saying it, Porsche is global leader in ICE engine, transmission, suspension, aerodynamics . Novice for a smartphone on wheels šŸ˜³šŸ˜±šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«šŸ«ØšŸ¤£ When placing factory order...
  6. Plug & Charge now available for Tesla Superchargers via Porsche Charging Service

    Hi to All - My experience- like everyone’s- is cheapest charging is at home. That said it’s only 9kWh speed, so overnight. For long commutes or road trips, EA and Tesla are my options. Pricing may vary across regions of the US. NY State observation: 1. EA stations are close (2 miles) to my...

  8. [EA Excellence] - EA continues to find new ways to fail - 85% limit

    Hi All. Agree that EA network is very busy due to the many Auto OEMs who’ve signed up with the network. I’d add Ford for the Mach-E model too, to underscore demand for this network’s charging stations. importantly, as was noted, most have, or are increasingly being reset from unlimited to 85%...
  9. Avoid the Macan EV!!!

    Hi Petzi - I couldn’t agree more. It’s not the car as a global model. It’s an individual vehicle with issues and a Dealership that isn’t actually fulfilling their role facing end market issues and customers. my car was fixed and I love it. best regards.
  10. Avoid the Macan EV!!!

  11. Avoid the Macan EV!!!

    Agreed on all fronts with comments just shared. Delighted you have two wonderful Macans! Yay! While I remain fervent about Porsche’s amazing ICE legacy, There have been plenty of ā€œlearn on the jobā€ anecdotal cases for Porsche with EVs; 1st gen Taycan and then 1st gen Macan EVs. That said...
  12. Avoid the Macan EV!!!

    Hi Happy New Year for 2026 to you and all colleagues herein this stream of feedback. As I’ve noted in original postings, in Dec/2024 following first 2 months of ownership of factory ordered 1st week of commercial production, Porsche is reknown for ICE luxury sports cars. I too have owned...
  13. Big update suspended?

    Hi. Thank you for the updated clarifications. I too have manual charging port doors. My car was factory ordered 1st week of commercial production. Last time I’ll order a car during initial launch. Especially in hindsight considering ORM Porsche add masters of ICE and are building...
  14. Big update suspended?

    hi Flying for Fun sorry you’re having issues post software update. That’s simply not right. Dealership and Porsche warranty owe complete service on your car. They should reboot and reload. re charger port door ( manual opening) the left side faster charger door stopped opening. Now it...

  16. Big update suspended?

    Hi to All. My major update was done 2 weeks ago. Prior glitches have disappeared. Frozen (manual not power) charging port (faster charger port side) was listed as one of the fixes. It took them 2 days to run software updates. I had ICE loaner, so no issue With time it took. Two OEM recalls...
  17. Need an AC NACS adapter….quickly

  19. A Warning for Cold Weather and Low Batteries

    Thank you for sharing. Your experience sounds horrific. Am sorry you had that experience. Some thoughts from my Macan EV experience: - PCNA Roadside can handle ICE driven cars seamlessly - PCNA Roadside doesn’t have breadth of drivers and flatbeds that can handle a locked EV car due to 12V...
