Thanks. Sport is my preferred option for country roads - car feels more alive and responsive - mainly due to throttle response. So far, too many cars on the road so couldn't really test how the car feels in faster corners. Again, car feels slower than it actually is due to ride comfort and sound...

Yes, volume wise. No if you cover trunk. Trunk is much deeper so makes it much more usable for luggage. Significant improvement over Macan IMHO.

Quick update: Someone made a yoke about air conditioning in UK heatwave. I handed in my Macan EV more than 6 months ago so comparison is based on recent 911 loaners and recollection. The air conditioning is nearly instant, cooling down car via remote to very acceptable levels takes about 2-3...

Coupe is positioned next to SUV, looks really good and much smaller as compared to SUV in show room. Coupe is black and SUV algarve blue. Trunk is large based on my experience with SUV so really no need for SUV body style unless you have a specific reason. Only downside is lack is possibility to...

Prices in USA may be different as BMW is producing in US wheres Porsche is not. Cayenne base is 105k compared to BMW ICE x5 40 102k for Germany.

SUV don't drive like sport cars, some feel just sportier than other SUVs :CWL: . Otherwise couldn't agree more, super happy with mine.

For those interested, Porsche West London has 3 cars in showroom, 2 SUV and 1 coupe. Algarve blue, black and mystic green. Turbo, S and base.

Prices are not out, performance of iX50 rather similar to base Cayenne. Interior and exterior is personal preference. If prices for new ICE x5 40 are any indication, BMW will be more expensive in Germany and UK. So yes, if you are in need for all the latest gimmicks, by all means get the iX50...

Update after one week (base, 21 inch) - Drive comfort is perfect, easy to handle in the city despite it’s size (RAS). - You feel kind of disconnected from the busy streets during rush hour, it’s very relaxing to drive. - Car feels slower than it actually is, needs some time to get used to and...

I have the base on 21 with laminated windows. The ride in general is absolutely smooth. In comfort mode even better, probably similar to Range Rover from recollection. The spread of drive modes is much wider as compared to other Porsche not only affecting suspension but also throttle...

Just driving a 911 GTS loaner as they are doing some ceramic coating. It's a proper race track car, looks amazing with incredible sound. For daily driving I clearly prefer the standard 911 I was driving last Friday. Suspension in Sport Plus is undrivable on most UK roads, and I am not speaking...

I have the same colour and wheels, SportDesign package not really needed, standard dark grey blends really well (unless you want the splitted front spoiler). I would get RAS instead, lots of debate on Macan forum but like to think it's a must for Cayenne (car is long). I have no comparison but...

Traffic lights: that’s kind of a problem here in UK. Depending on traffic light placement (not always adhering to common sense) and seat position you may not be able to see any if you are in front row due to A pillars and massive upper console with rear mirror. Mercedes had automatic wide angle...

Active drive: There are some minor but most welcome changes compared to Macan MY 25. In combination with HUD it’s now very usable on B roads. We have plenty of roundabouts on B roads here in UK and the new roundabout function (blue sign) is brilliant. The sign appears, car will start to slow...

Very positive review from Topgear. https://www.topgear.com/car-reviews/porsche/taycan-saloon-2024/320kw-105kwh-4dr-rwd-e-shift-revised/first-drive

You have plenty of amazing cars in your garage. The wait shouldn't be too hard on you :CWL:

Was able to change thread to base :cool: I only have the Cayenne now, but from recollection, difference between Taycan 4s and Macan 4s felt smaller than between Macan 4s and Cayenne Base. On paper there shouldn't be much difference between Cayenne S and Macan Turbo, you certainly don't get the...

I didn't notice. I didn't create this thread, I think administrator moved my post and created new thread. Will try to change.

I have the base. The base will do all of the above, unless the idiot behind about to hit you is driving a turbo :CWL:. The Cayenne EV is a big car, seating position in Macan EV and throttle response felt much sportier. I strongly suggest to test-drive the Cayenne, base maybe just enough for you...

Totally agree, those look stunning. Would take them in a heart beat. Don't forget all EV wheels have this rather big rim, I have the Spyder and in gloss black it kind of fades away. Have a look at window trim in comparison to wheels. Both are Turbinate but look completely different. It's all...
