Thanks Ian, that's really useful, congrats!
Quick question: when was your spec locked?
Trying to understand how the remaining wheels are being allocated to existing orders.
Thanks a lot, all three of you — really helpful.
So the picture so far: EU SportTechno orders seem frozen (production mid-July at the earliest, deliveries slipping to Sept-Nov), while early-locked US builds did get the wheels. Looks like the available stock went to the launch allocation, and...
Hi all,
Like several members here, my delivery has been pushed back due to the 22" SportTechno wheels supply issue.
My situation: Cayenne Turbo Electric ordered in France, contractual delivery end of June 2026, spec locked mid-April (SportTechno in Turbonite). I was informed only 3 weeks...
My configuration is now locked with the wheels I originally chose: the 22” SportTechno wheels in Turbonite.
I can no longer change them, and delivery is now expected at best by the end of August.
Thanks Matt, that’s very helpful.
It confirms that some dealers were already aware of the SportTechno issue back in April and were able to inform their customers early enough to change their configuration.
In my case, I only found out yesterday, three weeks before delivery, which is what makes...
Hi,
Can I ask how you already knew back in April that the SportTechno wheels were not available?
My dealer never mentioned any supply issue to me, and I only found out yesterday, just three weeks before the car was supposed to be delivered. I’m trying to understand whether this information was...
That’s a very good point, and you may well be right.
I hadn’t thought about the tire size difference. If the SportTechno wheels are the only 22” option using 285 front and 325 rear tires, then the delay could indeed be related to the tires rather than the wheels themselves.
In any case, it...
Thanks Cayven Noir, I must have missed that post.
That does indeed seem to confirm the delay caused by the 22” SportTechno wheels.
And yes… I really hope they’re worth it!
Hi PetrK,
Thanks for your reply. Do you remember where you read or heard that information about the extra 7-week delay?
Was it from your Porsche dealer, another forum thread, or an official Porsche communication?
Well, the verdict is in…
I won’t be taking delivery at the end of June as originally promised, but rather at the end of August. From what I’ve been told, Porsche is indeed having a supply issue with the 22-inch SportTechno wheels in Vanadium. 😭 😭 😭
So, in short, my delivery has been pushed...
Your message gives me a lot of hope, thank you!
I’ve been trying to get more information from my dealer for about a week now, but without much success. He is currently in training, and Porsche France doesn’t seem to have any visibility either. Their answer was basically: “Please contact your...
I also ordered the same colour.
It’s true that in direct sunlight it looks very light, and above all, the colour tends to shift towards blue. I agree with you: it’s a shame that Porsche doesn’t offer a proper anthracite grey.
That said, @CHP is right: the colour should look darker in cloudy...
Quick update on my side: the build of my Cayenne EV was originally scheduled for May 8, with delivery announced for June 24.
The build date has now been pushed back to May 19, but the good news is that, for now, delivery is still scheduled for June 24.
Fingers crossed
I hope the schedule holds...
I had already made a post about this.
I had contacted Porsche, and they confirmed that TYD is only available in the USA, even though all the cars are manufactured in the same factory. It’s incomprehensible
I was lucky enough to listen to both audio systems during the Cayenne Electric in France presentation.
The Burmester system was fitted in a Turbo model, while the Bose system was in a standard model.
I should say right away that I’m not an audiophile or a sound expert. This is simply my...
Don't worry too much about these storage issues! Let me remind you we're talking about an electric car 😄
On a long trip, you'll have to stop every 2 hours to recharge anyway… which leaves plenty of time to:
Pull the sunglasses out of the glove box
Retrieve the keys stuck between two water...
I see we speak the same language 😄
The Vanadium / Turbonite combo is hard to beat in terms of balance and character.
On my side, here’s my latest setup and this time, I’m sticking with it:
