    what the birdie told me today - June 2026 first opportunity for customer Cayenne's North America

    nothing concrete - they only report "all cayennes" - they also don't break it down by trim level https://newsroom.porsche.com/en_US/2025/company/porsche-reports-q3-2025-us-retail-sales.html I also asked ChatGPT to break it out and it couldn't find the data broken down _IF_ Porsche chooses to...

    what the birdie told me today - June 2026 first opportunity for customer Cayenne's North America

    I would suggest/speculate/guess any "unannounced" Porsche EV plans are delay'd or being reconsidered with a new CEO and EV hostile business environment and executive team… I honestly believe that if Porsche had it's preferences at this point they would've never gone forward with the Cayenne EV…...

    what the birdie told me today - June 2026 first opportunity for customer Cayenne's North America

    was picking up my 2021 Cayenne TurboS eHybrid from service today - complete hybrid battery replaced under warranty - car is good now :rock: talking with General sales manager (I've purchased too many Porsche's from this dealership in the past) Noted my interest in future Cayenne EV (2028...

    Not interested - where is massage seat option?

    for my wife and myself we'd rather not go "backwards" - honestly it's doesn't matter "how good" the massage is or is not - when sitting in a seat for a long drive it's nice to be able to get some "motion" on the seat and break up the static seating position - the degree of good is less important...

    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

    when I've owned "faster" charging EV's (Model S/X w/19.2 kW and Taycan w/11 kW) I would find it useful 3-6 times a year - also sometimes when using someone elses EVSE it was nicer to have the faster turn around time… there is no doubt that for normal daily use + overnight charging charge speed...

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

    19.2 kW EVSE's in North America are a rare bird - but not impossible - just very very very rare…it's good for home charging and is 2x faster if you have a 100 amp home EVSE… 800V is "da norm" for most FastCharger's these days if they are more than 100 kW max charge speed… Tesla's...

    [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…

    for my money - this is the one performance option you can "save" on a full EV with massive regen (i.e. regen means less friction brake usage) - PCCB's are largely a cosmetic exercise on ICE vehicle's with no regen…unless you're tracking them… this option money can be saved or redirected to...

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

    thanks to @Mr_Marty and @retom - love _BOTH_ the lists for a concise pros and cons list for PCCB's PCCB PRO's. (Superpowers really!) + They are lighter which reduces the unsprung weight of the wheel. This improves handling and wheel dynamics on bumpy surfaces. + Rotors are effectively lifetime...

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

    I consider this post pretty definitive… https://rennlist.com/forums/cayenne-9y0-2019/1266353-pccb-vs-steel-performance-difference.html#post17645553 I'm not saying to avoid getting PCCB's - they are in fact the best brakes possible - but simply go in "eyes open" about where/why they are better...

    [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...

    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/
