My Cayenne S EV finally arrived (first impressions, reviews, updates)

[CHP]

Kerb warning (no prior experience) - I like it with clear indication of tyres at risk. Little bit on the cautious side turning red at around 10 cm distance - maybe due to RAS. If you approach at a larger angle (rim not at risk) no red warning. So far so good.

Appreciate the detailed reviews CHP! Keep them coming

Well, I looked at some storage solutions on the internet and I think I found some that would work but need to do some final measurements.

Could you kindly share some links to the solutions that'll help with center storage?

Also, with regards to the kerb warnings, is there any settings in the PCM to activate this?

Let me first check if it works, didn’t arrive yet. If I remember correctly, you need to tick kerbs warning but may be activated by default. Clicked to many options lately to be certain.

Mood modes: More than just a gimmick. You can assign seating position to certain modes. That’s absolutely brilliant so I do not have to remember if I assigned sporty position to 1, 2 or 3 . It’s standard in UK.

Update, seat position apparently only works in park and not while driving. Back to 1,2&3 I guess. Damn safety implementation. Also why do they need to put permanent air bag sticker on passenger visor .

Does different mood modes sync with Spotify playlists? If so, do you have a list of these playlists?

Apparently they have special Porsche playlists, unfortunately I am going to miss out as I don't have Spotify.

Centre console, still an ongoing battle and not sure if I am going to come on top of it. There simply is no space (if both cup holders are in use) to leave you keys and smaller items like display cleaner organised. If you put cupholders in the higher position, everything slides beneath and is difficult to retrieve while driving. I think I will limit it to one cupholder for now and use the other for smaller items. Copilots would need to enter into an agreement to store and retrieve smaller items from glovebox if they wish to use the second .

Quick update, got Pepita Thermos cup and Drinks bottle - Motorsport as present. Thought that's a little cheap, why not giving me a thermos drinking water bottle as well. Well, as it turns out, if you put Thermos cup in position one (next to iPhone) and Drinks bottle - Motorsport in position 2, you can close centre console entirely. Position one maximal bottle height around 187 mm and position two around 235 mm. Hope this helps buying water bottles before delivery.

Bellroy Tech Kit Compact arrived. Fits kind of perfectly in either iPhone compartment or on top of it in the void (snuff fit so shouldn't move and easy to remove when needed).

I consider the battle won . Looking forward to your ideas. Hopefully your cars arrive soon.
