Coupe ordered

[Awaz]

I don't have RAS on my Macan EV, but many say it's very useful in tight parking spaces.
I wish I had the way parking is like in London.
@CHP is that what you meant by "... except for very few occasion"?

I have it on the BMW and it scrubs the rear tyres something rotten. It won’t ever go on the track so I didn’t see the point

I've got RAS on my iX M60 and don't think it has caused me extra wear. At least not in comparison to my heavy right foot.
I think the RAS is great; definitely helpful for tight spaces, and can often feel it help the back end around on corners, even when driving sensibly.

RAS really is almost obligatory on the Cayenne. It is 5m long and I promise you that you can feel it in almost every turn if you don’t option it. RAS makes it so much more nimble and worth every penny. I had it only my Macan as well.

I’m too old for peer pressure and will not be bullied into getting RAS

(but I might have deep dive into YouTube tomorrow morning at 5am when I inevitably wake up sweating thinking have I got the spec of this car totally wrong whilst being told I’m radiating heat and I’m a complete twat by my peri-menopausal wife).

Parking is not such of a problem, I surely need one less turn at home. We have a lot of sharp bends into smaller streets where I live and also nose will not stick into oncoming traffic.

I personally wouldn't be without it for maneuverability. I encounter a few circumstances where it's essential. As for the improved driving dynamics, Fair point! will 99% of us ever take advantage of what the Cayenne is actually capable of.

Whoops! should i not have bought up RAS... My Bad

All I can say is that switching from the Macan without to the Coupe with, the only time I notice the size difference is when I park alongside a Macan. I’m probably imagining it but the car feels so manoeuvrable that I do forget the 5m length. This of course may be more attributable to the fact I told my wife that the Coupe was a similar size as the Macan and not a ‘Chelsea Tractor’. She thought my black Velar with black pack made me look like a drug dealer.

Only she thought?

Switching from Macan EV to Mini to 911 just before handover, Cayenne felt really, really big . As you said, handling wise no big difference to Macan - rear wheel steering helps a lot in tight places and sharper bends. Only noticeable difference are the larger doors when parking (that’s a problem). Probably wrong audience, but I can see the appeal of driving a smaller car in the city.

In a moment of madness, I was contemplating an Alpine A290. I love the retro styling and as you say CHP, I can see the appeal of a small car for city driving.
The XM is a bigger car than the Cayenne.
Then I came to my senses and went with the coupe .

Did a size comparison between car my father was driving (W123) when I was younger and Cayenne EV, Cayenne is not that much longer but 20 cm wider. In terms of overall volume, that's a different story - massive.
