Hello,
Lurking off and on for a couple years now. I currently own a 24 Macan Electric 4 and am looking to add a Taycan CT. I've found a color combo and spec I really like in a '22 CT. Is there anything specific (issues, options, SW upgrades, recalls, etc.), I should lookout for in MY22?

I've seen some Taycans listed with the "Olea Club Leather interior in Basalt Black/Atacama Beige". Anyone have experience with this specific interior? How does it hold up and is it easy to care for and keep clean? Is it noticeably "nicer" than the standard leather?

TIA

Olea is nicer and needs the same care as the full leather option,
If you are coming from a 24 Macan EV , do yourself a favor and get a J1.2 (MY25-26) CT instead as it's much improved in many ways.

the 22 CT i owned for 12 months had some PCM issues that recalls were not able to fix at that period of ownership, the new gen doesn't have these issues at all.

I actually am looking at a few seriously, they all just happened to be MY22 due to price cutoff. So, anything in particular to avoid (22kw charger), or must haves? (e.g., 150kw charger, Sport chrono)?

Agree on the 25-26, unfortunately the cost is a factor as this will be a 3rd car I don't really need. :)
