Opt-in innoDrive taycan 2025 but no innoDrive option

[whitex]

I have Innodrive as FoD, but am missing sensors to detect traffic coming to me when I'm in reverse.

Interesting, in the US it was the FRONT cross traffic that was apparently only included with factory Innodrive, pre-MY2025.

Hmm, never thought about the front. I'm missing the REAR the most. Maybe both are part of the 'real' Innodrive

my guess is that ordering Acc + Innodrive adds extra sensors compared to just ACC (with software only Innodrive). I have Innodrive as FoD, but am missing sensors to detect traffic coming to me when I'm in reverse.

At least before MY25, that feature is only available if you option in Remote Park Assist (which I have). Its not a Innodrive thing; its a parking package option.

On my MY23 car I have ACC from the factory and have purchased Active Lane Keep (ALK) via FoD; leaving Innodrive off the car.

It seems from the configurator that on MY25 the only way to get ALK now is the buy InnoDrive from the factory as there is (as yet) no FoD on the newer cars.

In the configurator, yes. In the 2025 car software however, there doesn't seem be anything called Innodrive anymore, hence the question what, if anything it, paying for Innodrive gets a 2025 Taycan buyer.

Tesla used to mix things up, adding and subtracting included features. For example ACC used to be optional at one point, then became included , then again optional, then again included in another package, as was power tailgate, etc, etc. - at least Tesla kept up with the options on their site, though buying a used Tesla was a little tricky as you really didn't know what options the car had unless you could look back in time to see what was included in what package on the day that this particular Tesla was produced). Given Porsche's lack of software experience, I wonder if the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing as far as software options, so someone forgot to tell the configurator guys that Innodrive is no longer and all of its options are standard now with other driving assist features.

InnoDrive is just more software (heaven forbid!) and so if optioned in addition to ACC you get more menu items to configure rather than have a separate InnoDrive grouping. To me it makes sense but to remove some of the confusion they need to drop the InnoDrive nomenclature on the configurator and simply call it 'Driving Assistance Enhancements'.

Base case remains, you must have ACC (hardware) at a minimum and the 'InnoDrive' is now simply additional Adaptive Cruise Control features which you get for an additional payment.

None of this is standard in Europe at least.

They would need to clarify what those enhancements actually do. Porsche either obscures information on purpose or has incompetent people responsible for communications what options actually are, or really the people working on the product do not communicate with the people selling it. One good example of horrible communication is the off road option for a CT, which implies higher clearance while in fact it lowers the maximum clearance for the car, only raising the default set height.
