They don’t. There’s a threshold of when they do. Basic recuperation off throttle doesn’t trigger it.

It all comes down to preference. Do you like the car to coast when lifting the throttle pedal, or do you prefer it to slow down a bit kind of like an ICE car does? I’m on the latter camp.

I hope you are in this CAMVAP for the long haul. Wait till you see 0-60mph times most manufacturers announce are not really starting from 0.

Try not to pay attention to the white noise, that’s the AC, and it looks worse in than it is. Focus on the motor wind up/down noise. This is with Sport Sound off. This only happens at very low speeds like in the video, higher speeds is way less noticeable. But got me wondering since I recently...

I agree. But as long as it can be switched off, I have no problem with it. More options for more people.

Needs more merc logos imo

Driving one while my Taycan get serviced :p. With that said, it’s harder to notice the sound being on in the Macan, at lower speeds. In the Taycan I’ve never had such a problem.

The Macan EV does show the sport sound indicator in the drivers display

Haha. Thanks for sharing. This is exactly what I’ve done too, including trying with both charging ports. This is the weirdest gremlin.

Ok, for the life of mw I can’t figure out what’s wrong. While charging the car, as I’ve usually done with my Taycan (Porsche charger at 50%) the panic alarm goes off at exactly 17 minute intervals. Wtf.

Looks like a scratch to me. Was this car in an accident?

Couple of more things I’ve noticed. First, The brake pedal feels much better in the Macan. My Taycan has a spongy feel in the initial phase of the press… And second, my head was wobbling side to side on an uneven road, something that doesn’t happen in the Taycan due to the lower CG I assume.

My Taycan is in for service, and to my surprise they gave me a Macan 4S EV. I wanted to post before the initial novelty wears off. So far I’m impressed. It’s so much better than the ICE counterparts. I have driven the base electric macan before, it was meh because the lack of punch. Then the...

Not sure if captured somewhere, but, say you want to take the car to the dealership for a fault you want them to check. You swap back to the original ASG, but then have to clear the codes because swapping generates a few engine control errors logged (lost comm to accelerator pedal module, low...

Was this one of the ones from Porsche Ft Myers? They had 2.
