Voice Pilot AI Update

[JonoNZ]

I just got prompted about this in the My Porsche app. Worth noting my car is a MY2025. Anybody else get this?

Looks like it’s only for MY 2026

Kinda feels like this is as close as we're ever gonna get to an OTA software update from Porsche.

(And not even that for the 2025s).

I got it on my 911 via My Porsche notification but doesn't mean it's compatible. So basically, any Porsche owner with My Porsche App installed and logged in will have received this notification whether they have an MY26 Macan or not...awesome!

Received the notification this morning and installed the update (MY 2026 GTS).

First impressions are good with the ability to ask follow up questions.

Congrats @Andy718S. Look forward to future updates.

Gotta say that MY2024 and MY2025 owners should have at least the option to add features like this with a paid model. Yes, it may have some deeper requirements we don't understand on hardware, but other companies do more. We've covered this in other software related threads before, but with a new CEO and an environmentally conscious German company, we shouldn't have to buy a new car for these kinds of software feature updates!

I hope it becomes available for the 2024-2025 models, but I doubt it. Regardless, similar features should become available with the next Siri update. Porsche’s voice pilot will use the data from your connect plan. Siri from your phone’s data. Not at issue if both unlimited.

I would believe this is all server based...really has nothing to do with the car hardware. The car already has as "ai" capabality...this is just an update to that.......that for some reason, they're restricting to certain years, that had the SAME Ai already

Have to admit - notifying MY2024-2025 users that there is an update but for MY2026 only is beyond stupid on so many levels it's even hard to comprehend. Similar to what happened with preferred charging networks - there was a update to the mobile app with info this is new but they failed to mention it will not work with MY2024-2025 cars.

Standard Porsche practice, sell you an obsolete car and constantly remind you you need to buy the next and the next, works on many people including yourself (apologies if you haven't already upgraded to the MY26)
Cue MY26 owners receiving updates for hands free driving (available from MY27)
