    [Cayenne EV Spotting] - is this a Cayenne EV at the Monaco F1 race this past weekend?

    way too much going on and I didn't pay close enough attention - and was lacking a paddock pass - but was at the Monaco F1 race this past weekend and enjoy'd the PORSCHE Supercup race - all the teams had ICE Cayenne's as support vehicle's while they were in the pits prepping for their race - but...

    Not interested - where is massage seat option?

    hmmmm… I have a 2021 Cayenne Hybrid w/massage seats I had a 2020 Taycan w/massage seats I have a 2024 Macan EV w/massage seats the current configurator has no massage seat options and they are not listed in standard equipment honestly - this is a deal breaker for me - hopefully they will add...

    [North America] - 19.2 kW OBC!!! Fascinating

    given that the MTBF on the Taycan OBC 19.2 kW units is about 12 seconds (and is/was under recall, was unavailable for replacement, was then available again, then it wasn't, and then Porsche would reimburse for a downgrade, and then was no longer offered, and to this day is still absent as an...

    [FAQ] - PCCB Option - Since it's bound to come up - my thoughts on PCCB's…

    TLDR; EV's (yes even the Cayenne EV) don't have enough stamina on track to warrant PCCB's - and for non-track use 98% percent of deceleration is handled by regen in normal driving (Porsche's words not mine)… this makes PCCB's a huge cosmetic exercise vs. an actual stopping the vehicle exercise...

    [North America] - Charging a Porsche at Tesla Supercharger (my experience report)

    Based on my Macan Experience - I believe the Cayenne EV will be a strong EV offering for North American customers with well integrated Supercharger Support and native NACS fast charging port… https://www.macanevowners.com/forum...-lectron-adapter-at-tesla-supercharger.23505/

    [opinion] - hmmm…VW/Audi/Porsche may be in trouble…

    given Porsche's recent facination with pricing themselves out of competition and their general lack of enthusiasm for things EV…this could be a replacment for my Cayenne Hybrid in 2026/2027…and I hate the Lucid Air - but bring me Lucid Saphire driving dynamic's with SUV class space (120...

    [CyberTruck] - even if you don't want one worth a watch…

    I hate the cyber truck - but once again Tesla is pushing boundaries and will probably "leak" into other product and the industry at large some of the building blocks of this truck are more interesting than the truck itself - 800V (like Taycan), steering by wire, safety considerations...

    interesting contrast…Lucid air inventory "deals"

    I'm under the impression in North America you still have to wait to get a Taycan and sales are good… but apparently they are not so much for Lucid (which is a car I simply don't understand or desire) they are having a sale - 1% financing if you'll purchase an inventory model…...
