Thanks, I looked, I haven't compared the specs to my 'desired' spec, but there certainly seems like a bit of choice for new cars coming, especially 7 GTS and 7 Turbo, only 1 4S!

Is it possible to determine the availability date of these, or is that just 'soon' as they are listed?
I think most of those GTS state availability from Feb 2026. I can believe that since mine landed in the UK last week and I suspect is part of a first batch, and will be making their way to dealers shortly.

Macan EV sales were hardly a disaster at over 45,000 units. Not as many as Porsche hoped for sure, and yes they are backpedling on their decision to not make ICE Macans, but still a good number for last year.

MACAN 4 EV (2024)

I think this data tells us a lot about where this company is heading.

Overall deliveries fell 10% with some models (Taycan) and some markets (China) dropped by 20-30%. It's the steepest annual decline in about 16 years and it shows Porsche is rapidly loosing ground.

Weak China demand is an industry wide trend and it's not unique to Porsche but if you believe future is electric, what happens in China shows where the market is going - and this direction is less depended on brand value, but real product value you get for your money. Which is a problem for all premium brands - the logo will not be enough, they have to nail the product and deliver what customers expect.

Macan EV did not replace the ICE as intended, the demand for it is roughly 50% of what ICE Macan had in the past. It's good or bad depending on how you look at it.

It all comes down to this - either Porsche nails its EVs (which I think they will) and adjusts the value proposition to the current market reality (which I doubt they will) or they will become a very niche brands selling more and more expensive 911s to smaller and smaller target group.

PS Taycan should have been Porsche’s EV flagship, proof that Porsche can do EVs better than anyone. While it's a fantastic car and my next one, it's getting squeezed by brutal value attack (like Xiaomi SU7 and others) and shows badge + chassis feel alone is not enough anymore.
I might be wrong, but I least where I live the Taycan has a Range problem and both EV have a size problem. May not be a problem in most regions, but Europe is full of small towns, closed corners, narrow neighbourhoods and steep slopes. We NEED smaller cars from outside.
Porsche EV also are behind in features, what most cars come by default you have to pay on a car which doesn't do that much better. They will learn that in the following years.
Also in technology, they can't innovate because they aren't prepared, they depend on AUDI / VW to develop their platforms which end up being modified versions of AUDI (Q6) or the next generation of Porsche EV which will be the electric Audi seen some months ago with some changes.
They need to work on actual torque vectorying (not that shitty implementation), the software information: instant consumtions, graphics, SOC, SOH, cell information, temperatures, etc. just look at an Nissan or Hyunday N to see what is to REPORT THE STATUS OF THE CAR) How data is presented: completely outdated, unconsistent and pathetic GUI: just an example represeting the charge of the car inside a "green" AA cell shaped is simply pathetic, the battery temperature gauge is a non-sense in shape and functionality. The blinking icons in the dash when you disable some features, the size of the UI elements, the redundant information. NOBODY IS THINKING THERE IN CARS JUST IN POWERPOINTS AND SELLS.
