The only person who should really be able to answer that is your dealer. And in the end, it honestly shouldn’t matter too much, because if anything unexpected happens you’ll get your deposit back anyway. That said, I completely understand that spending time thinking about these things is...
I honestly wouldn’t worry. The issues with the Macan were relatively minor overall, although there were a few outliers. I don’t have any statistics, but I’ve spoken to two dealers in Sweden and neither of them had experienced issues with customers like my car (the one Porsche eventually...
I really don’t like hearsay, especially regarding things that might make people reconsider or even cancel their purchase. I just spoke with my dealer and my production date is confirmed by the factory is the 18th of May, with expected arrival at the dealer on 26th of June with immediate...
Mate Rimac (CEO of Bugatti and founder of Rimac) made an interesting point on this. His company essentially develops electric drivetrains for a large part of the industry, including German brands like Porsche and BMW.
He said that European manufacturers are trying too hard to compete with China...
Did you find a Panamera or Taycan with AR at any nearby dealership so you could try it yourself?
My understanding is that AR is impressive, but it can make the car feel less “real” due to all the systems assisting the driving. It becomes more of an augmented experience rather than something...
No problem, really hope they gave some perspective at the least! :)
Ride comfort is actually much improved compared to the previous Cayenne; it honestly feels like you’re driving on clouds, especially when compared to the Macan. Obviously, the Macan should be treated more like a hot hatch, but...
I was passing by my local dealer and saw the Cayenne EV base model in their lot and took the obvious opportunity to test drive it.
Inital thoughts: This was also stated by a few sales person of my local dealer: This is and drives like a real Porsche, it is robust and has a quality that is non...
I’ve driven plenty of loaner cars identical to mine while it was in service, Macan and even Taycan, and noticed the same pattern. With my relatively “laid-back” driving style, usually with three kids in the car, my estimated range after a year at 100% charge was around 520 km. However, when I...
I’ve heard of quite a few Porsche dealers handling deposits in a similar way without always following through on their promises. In some cases, customers have had to involve lawyers to recover their deposits when issues arose. Just a heads up, but I’m sure you already have everything well...
I know a few (including myself) who received discounts on their builds. From what I understand, regular discounts are not the norm on these pre-launch orders because Porsche hasn’t estimated their sales just yet and tend to be dealer-specific.
So, the panoramic roof adds less than 1% to the total weight then? Even if that’s the case, the aluminum (or whatever material it is) section of the roof that gets removed to make space for the panoramic roof would already weigh around 10–15 kg. In practice, that means the net increase is...
I would still recommend that you ask about the Sonderwunsch program. There’s a possibility they could fast-track your order, as there likely aren’t many customers participating for the Cayenne electric. You might still have to wait until August or September, but it would be worth it because...
