    Test drove cayenne S in Sydney

    Actually yes, with the screens (i have the passenger display as well), the ambiance looks more modern and “techno”, while RRS one is more clean , more regal, but feels outdated from technical perspective. Depends what you like more… The problems with the interior, there are several places...

    Test drove cayenne S in Sydney

    I am coming from a 2017 Range Rover Sport hybrid. i just had the Porsche cayenne turbo electric for few days. So need more time to make my judgement.. it has active ride as well as rear wheel steering and 21” wheels. For ride comfort maybe on par with the RRS (which is on 22” wheels , but the...

    Vehicle lighting fault

    UPDATE: Lighting control module was replaced. The issue seems to be resolved. how something like this passed quality control at the part supplier and the Porsche factory is something to wonder about… and not very reassuring in the overall quality of the car.

    Vehicle lighting fault

    Just took delivery of my new cayenne turbo electric and when night fell i got “vehicle lighting error”. Tried resetting by closing it and leaving locked for 15 minutes - no luck going to service tomorrow, but nothing will happen until Monday i guess… so disappointing…

    Autocar comparison with Polestar 3 and BMW iX

    I wish car journalists would not compare EV to EV only. When i decide about a new car nowadays, i want to get the best car for the miney ( best confort. Handling etc.), the type of energy where the power comes from is not the primary factor any more…

    Autonated carwash and the frunk

    Yeah, seems i was wrong about having a car wash more. Probably I have confused myself from some other car.. It seems Macan EV owners had issues with charging flaps opening during a car wash. I guess this xan be prevented if the car is locked, but this doesn’t apply to the frunk.

    Autonated carwash and the frunk

    Hi All, I know there is a car wash more, but what if someone forgets to enable it, going into an automated car wash? Is the brush cleaning the bonnet going to open the front trunk? It would be a mess.. Thanks!

    Turbonite on the window surrounds or should I go black ?

    I also got the turbonite windw trim and the 21” RS Spyder wheels in turbonite color. Oak green metallic neo color and club leather espresso interior. Initially, i also thought of black windows trim and black wheels, but later changedto turbonit - i wanted a bit more “classy” look, compared to...

    Cayenne Coupe- no sun screen for glass roof?

    I wouldn’t trust Autogefühl's reviews too much on specific technical fetches. He doesn’t seem to properly research/understand technology. He comments whatever he sees on the first glance.You can see that when he described Active Ride - he didn’t know how the it really worked.

    Cayenne Coupe- no sun screen for glass roof?

    Seems the VLC option should be much better for a hot climate. The important point is that the liquid-crystal layer isn’t merely a fancy electronic tint. The multi-layer glazing itself is designed to reject UV and IR, while the liquid-crystal layer controls how much visible light passes through...

    Car and Driver: Cayenne Turbo EV Is the Quickest SUV We've Ever Tested

    I think the great braking performance is mostly due to the ability to regen up to 600 kW power - like having about 805 HP pulling in the opposite direction.
