  1. Possible to lower suspension for entry/exit?

    If you're talking about the Macan EV, yes. I have a 2024 model (took delivery late September). You can manually change the suspension height if you have the air suspension, standard in the U.S. On the panel, click the car icon, under Level, select the appropriate option. For my 91 year old...
  2. Electric Sport Sound - equip it or not?

    You can enable or disable it in the drive mode panel - hit the checkbox to include sound in the mode. I don't think it works in Normal though. Check with your dealer.
  3. Electric Sport Sound - equip it or not?

    Thanks for the tip!
  4. Electric Sport Sound - equip it or not?

    I ordered it to mess with my nephew who like noise coming from the engine. I never use it, and I have to turn it off every time in sport mode (kind of annoying). I find quite power quite rewarding. For me, my next one will definitely NOT have that. But if you want it, get it, because you can't...
  5. Battery % on arrival estimate way off

    Having exactly the same issue after the last update. It will add or delete 30 miles from the range estimate before I've even driven a mile. Driving me nuts. Plan on bring this up to the dealer again when I see them this week.
  6. Leaving car for 6 weeks - plug in or no?

    I had a similar issue. Porsche (customer support) suggested I charge it to 85% and just leave it be (90% would be safer if cold weather is expected). In my case, after 4 weeks, I had about 65% remaining when I got back, and the car started up just fine. Talk to your dealer and to Porsche...
  7. Avoid the Macan EV!!!

    I've had mine for a little over a year, and was one of the first off the assembly line. Except for a couple of minor issues and some computer glitches which have mostly been fixed, it's been delightful. And yes, the rattly front passenger seat belt was fixed in a recent patch (although before...
  8. Degradation of the battery

    I've had my Macan 4 EV a little over a year now (I ordered as soon as they started taking orders). The battery appears to be very robust. We just had a recall performed and I noticed something weird, so the GM had the battery tested. Totally on par. Only thing they recommend is don't charge...
  9. Cayenne EV reveal coming Nov. 19

    If they can really deliver 350 miles per charge at 70mph, even with HVAC working, this is a game-changer.
  10. CAR Magazine Test. Macan #2 best SUV

    Car and Driver, see Luxury. It's #1 https://www.caranddriver.com/rankings/best-suvs/electric
  11. Rear Camera Wash Function 👍

    OMG I'm an idiot. I've had mine since last September and didn't notice that before. THANK YOU!!!
  12. PCM reboots and Service required

    I'm not with Porsche, so make sure your dealer vets this. I got one of the first off the line units, the first in Fort Worth Texas for sure. There were a lot of bugs originally; I'm a software engineer so documented and reported them. Most bogus warnings had disappeared until an update a few...
  13. Front windshield weatherstripping - discolored and deteriorating

    Wow. I just went out to double-check mine. Took delivery of my 24 Macan 4 EV in September last year. It spent several months in the sun during the spring and summer for our home remodel. It still looks factory-fresh. Ask your dealer. Something's definitely not right here.
  14. Macan EV Insurance

    We have insurance through CONNECT (Ameriprise from COSTCO) and did not have to have a tracker. And it's pretty close to the same premium we paid for my 2014 Audi Q5 TDI, so, happy. Also, like someone else said on this thread, it's a WONDERFUL car. Go for it. (I've loved several cars in my...
  15. Engine and electrical error

    I ordered my Macan in February 2024, when they started taking orders. I took delivery last September. Mine was on the boat with the dealer demos, so, an early build. Point being: I noticed a lot of these random errors. Almost always, turning the car off, waiting a few minutes, then back on, and...
  16. Car struggles to run AC for cabin and battery

    I'm pretty sure the battery uses air cooling (someone correct me if I'm wrong). Every time I've driving over a patch of fine powder(dirt, dust, etc) when it's hot, a cloud of said powder comes up from under the car driven by the cooling fans. I ordered mine with double glass and ventilated...
  17. Manual charging door not opening

    I love this car, almost a year in. I had an issue with one of the port doors not showing as closed, which prevents opening the other one. Take it in to the dealer - they should be able to prefer a replacement for the fault port.
  18. Extended Parking Update

    While were out, ambient temperature was in the 90-105 range. I was very happy with the minimal % lost.
  19. Extended Parking Update

    I looked like about 40 miles of range had expired - still very good I thought.
  20. Extended Parking Update

    We took delivery of our MavanEV in September 2024 (we pre-ordered, as soon as they started taking orders). We absolutely love it. Just got back from our first long event horizon plane trip. I'd contacted Porsche to make sure what I needed to do to make sure we didn't have a brick when we got...
