Hi Guys,
This is my first post here so let me introduce you to my black on black 4 Cross Turismo with 21” Vossen wheels.
It has full PPF including all the dashboard screens and other high gloss black trim parts.
When I ordered mine in September 2021 (it was delivered in December 2021 due to a slot I could get because of a cancelled order two days before I made the deal with the dealer) I knew I needed a way to take our bikes with us. We have been doing trips to the Alps for 2 years with our previous Tesla Model 3 and when I bought that one it was still possible to get a hitch straight from the factory. Yes consumption is high with bikes on the back but we never had any problems with range.
My dealer told me about the super nice bike rack but let’s be honest…. € 2700,- for a bike rack to replace my already great, foldable rack seemed a bit to much. I have been reading all the threads on this forum but up until now, most solutions are not what I had in mind. I was looking for something that looked completely OEM. I started out with a simple idea and brought that to a business associate who owns a metal factory. After a lot of test fitting etc. we came up with this design. It is double powder coated so it can take a beating. It's just as stable as an original hitch on a normal car and in my opinion looks great. It does everything the OEM Porsche rack does for way less money.
Update.
