What’s the ONE piece of advice you’d give to a new Macan owner?

[3Wliners]

Maybe new owners focus their attention on upgrades, like appearance, accessories, or modifications. While those choices shape the look and feel of a vehicle, long-term reliability and safety are often determined by basic maintenance habits that are easy to overlook.

Simple routines can make a meaningful difference, such as regularly checking tire condition and tire pressure, keeping the driver’s footwell clean to avoid interference with pedal operation, preventing dirt, sand, or moisture from accumulating inside the cabin or underbody, paying attention to the fit and safety of interior components, not just their appearance etc.
These details may seem minor at first, but over time, they directly affect driving safety, comfort, and vehicle lifespan.

My advice would be to ignore any advice - just enjoy it.
none of us should need lessons about basic car maintenance that’s applicable to all cars.

My one piece of advice is to take all of the charging speed and range marketing with a grain of salt. This is not only for the Macan but ANY EV. I live in a climate where the summer temps easily hit 100 F and the winter temps (straight temp, not wind chill) typically hit 10-15 below F. At the low extremes range is great reduced and charging will be slower. Owners need to be prepared for that.

Don’t worry so much about every little detail and enjoy your Porsche!

Specifically for the Macan.... drive it like you stole it, enjoy, secure loose things so they dont fly around and smack you in the head

Seriously, ONE piece of advice: As with any EV, there is a lack of road and engine noise, so it is so easy to bust the speed limit. By the way, that can work to talk you out of a ticket.

Otherwise just common sense.
