Never heard of „Maxton Design“ and for sure I haven’t missed a thing! It’s one of these WTF! moments IMHO!

Not a fan at all … only thing I’d be a remotely interested in would be that rear roof spoiler similar to the gas Macan. I’ve always found the rounder roof on the Macan EV to be a bit unattractive but to each their own. It’d probably do something to the drag coefficient/range as well .. 🤷‍♂️

100% agree. Really wish Porsche would come out with an OEM roof spoiler.

like or not...it's great to see that the car is not being ignored by the after market... the more options the better

A roof spoiler will cost you probably about 10% of range at highway speeds by interrupting the airflow over the back of the car.
That's a pretty big loss, guessing that's why they didn't add it but efficiency is meaningless to me for my use case. I only drive locally with my EV.

It is oddly inexpensive for a full kit.

I hope the OEM off road design parts eventually come out for purchase.

in EU/UK, they have to get things like this certified for the road? i would imagine that would add the cost they're trying to recoup?

It seems like the Cayenne EV mules have been spotted in both a standard style (roof spoiler) and a coupe style (without roof spoiler) so maybe they are trying to engineer their way out of that range difference lol

I also believe the Audi Q6 etron has their sportback version coming so we will see how pronounced the range difference on that may be as well
