    Sport Techno Wheels and Sport Design Pack

    It doesn't actually if you check thoroughly (UK). Standard spec sheet doesn't mention either. The arches are gloss black as are some other pieces of exterior trim. The rear diffuser (and front) changes with the specific Sport Design Pack.

    Sport Techno Wheels and Sport Design Pack

    Send them your build code for the avoidance of doubt. Oddly, only the 22" SportTechno wheels for the base or S require the SportDesign Package. All other variants of the same size don't according to the configurator. The tyres are broader on this specific rim hence the requirement. Turbo must...

    Power Modes

    Push to Pass (an element of Sports Chrono option) is available when on the move and logically of more use than acceleration from a standstill. Add to this the addition of Sports Plus mode for the chassis and Sport mode for PSM. Beyond this there is a Track Endurance Mode to keep the battery...

    Sport Design Exterior (Gloss Black) — Configurator vs. Reality: What finish do you actually get?

    This info is on the configurator - standard equipment tab and each tab for the exterior package chosen. Offroad Package The Offroad Package consists of: - Offroad lower front apron in Black (matt) with inlay painted in Vesuvius Grey - Wheel arch covers and side skirts in Black (matt) - Offroad...

    Test drive of Cayenne EV and Cayenne EV Turbo -- my review

    Range looks disappointing - 399 km or 248 miles. I'm hoping that improves significantly.

    UK build dates

    Yes but ICE roof on coupé can't be opened (for whatever reason (curvature / aero)) if this follows through to EV then perhaps VLC will feature on its own. Void of details and production photos right now.

    UK build dates

    Roof can be VLC - variable degrees of shade at $$$$ - presumably will be an option if non opening. Actually this looks better than current ICE coupě IMHO. Wait to see non camouflaged images.

    Cayenne EV Turbo vs... 911

    I have to disagree, the 911 is an everyday usable super car. Impressive luggage space (rear seats folded and frunk.) I use mine regularly and the last thing I would complain about is practicality. Clearly, you won't transport 4 adults but then how often is that needed. Two small kids, probably...

    Must have options???

    14 way would be a preference- more comfortable Pano roof 2D / 3D Park Assist Rear axle steering Privacy glass Bose (probably) Other options are now standard such is the basic spec

    Configurator available for 2026 Cayenne Electric EV - post your build!

    Good at clearing a frosted screen too (obviously) - that's not the debate. Cabin preconditioning in the summer (to cool) works as you'd expect

    Configurator available for 2026 Cayenne Electric EV - post your build!

    It won't be the same. Preheating typically uses more energy to run the 800v HVAC heater. Taycans all have heat pumps as standard in most regions - UK being one, (in others it was an option). Did little for efficiency in my experience and would worry what it would be like without. Charging...

    Configurator available for 2026 Cayenne Electric EV - post your build!

    Heated screen is 12v and in my experience works very well for shifting early morning frost. Cabin preconditioning will use HV battery and will eat some range before you set off. More of an issue in climates where winters are frosty, cold and low ambient. Possibly a marginal requirement if you...

    12V Battery AGM or Lithium Ion?

    Porsche use the same - LiFePO4 (LFP) - 12v battery tech on the Taycan (since 2019) and Macan EV. I imagine Cayenne EV is the same. 12v battery issues have plagued many EV car brands due to software issues.

    PASM standard with three manually selectable modes ('Normal', 'SPORT', 'SPORT PLUS')?

    Drive Mode "Individual " is for that purpose as per other Porsches.

    PASM standard with three manually selectable modes ('Normal', 'SPORT', 'SPORT PLUS')?

    I have HD on my 911 and it is simply fantastic and a step change above standard matrix (mine was OK) and in particular illuminating around other vehicles with a clearly noticeable delineation. Downside is the cost and if you do little night driving is pointless as an upgrade. Mood mode is not...

    UK build dates

    Wait till December and you may get a free home EVSE / wallbox and 2 Porsche Experience Days - this was the offer on all Porsche EVs last December for cars bought or orders placed - dealer specific.

    PASM standard with three manually selectable modes ('Normal', 'SPORT', 'SPORT PLUS')?

    The spec hasn't / won't have changed, just a more verbose / helpful description. Porsche websites are increasingly useless at detailing the basics and force you to delve deeper into the configurator rather than provide a standard spec and list of detailed options on the model page. Years back...

    PASM standard with three manually selectable modes ('Normal', 'SPORT', 'SPORT PLUS')?

    The info i posted was from the standard spec (not logged in to My Porsche). What is it that you wish to confirm / check? Sometimes helps to generate the PDF file of your build to see the most detailed information for your build / Porsche Code.

    PASM standard with three manually selectable modes ('Normal', 'SPORT', 'SPORT PLUS')?

    Slight clarification/ correction here. SC needed for Sports Plus. Base Cayenne has Off Road mode.
