Hi, new-ish 4S Cross Turismo owner here. How does one get the outside air temp to display on any of the screens. Thanks!

The instrument cluster will show it on the left, probably right behind your steering wheel, when using the Power Meter view (the one with all the gauges large).

The center PCM screen can show the temperature instead of the time — tap on the current time to change that preference.

OK so as a new Taycan owner in 2023 I struggled to figure out how to get the exterior temperature to show up on one of the various screens, coming to curse Porsche for making nearly everything configurable - except apparently this.

Then I discovered that the temperature is permanently displayed on the driver's screen... positioned so that it's entirely hidden from my view by the steering wheel. Doh!

Here is where it lives:

Oh, man... maybe I need to get my eyes rechecked.

Wheel blocks the clock on the right side. The sport chrono now has a purpose!

At least in the earlier model you can get the outside temperature to display on the top right of the center console screen. I think just tap around there, or on the gear wheel near there somewhere IIRC.

I must be their model driver shape...the steering wheel goes in the gap between temp and lighting controls when I'm set.

It also depends on how far one seats from the steering wheel: a more "comfy/relax" position will hide the sides of the screen, while a more "sporty" position closer to the wheel makes everything visible.
