Any ex-Tesla owners out there that already took delivery. Is the phone as key any good compared to Tesla?

ex tesla owner here: you canā€™t use your phone to drive a Macan. You can open / close the car with the app.

Ah... My bad, I was making assumptions that this is a standard feature these days (Tesla, Polestar, BMW, etc). Does it have something similar like locking when walking away via the key fob? I recently rented a BMW series 2 and it had it (which was a surprise).

Many thanks!

Yes, it has. They call it ā€œcomfort accessā€

Funny thing they don't mention this in the config. Only mention the tap to lock/unlock and open parts of the car. I hope you are right šŸ˜…

Depending on region, itā€™s optional, be careful

When I got the Tesla M3 I bought also the physical key fob; maybe Iā€™m old and on this subject I prefer to use a key fob. So I didnā€™t spec the ā€œcomfort accessā€ and for now Iā€™m happy. The only thing I donā€™t understand is the sequences of the keys on the Porsche key fob, IMHO they are not so logical but I think I will get used to.

I would imagine the shortcuts might be similar to what's in this video.

Same here, I didnā€™t spec the ā€œcomfort accessā€ with my Macan order.
