Passenger Display or Sport Chrono vote

[Dr.Ericthedrill]

Passenger screen is useless. They can just as easily use the center screen.

My wife is a passenger 90% of the time I am driving the Taycan. When we owned a Tesla she would get annoyed when she was entering a destination at the start of a trip and I shifted into reverse overriding the map display with the rear camera view. Using the passenger display for navigation means the map and rear camera don't share the same screen. It also allows the passenger to easily enter GPS info with either hand.

We frequently use the center screen to display a magnified map view when we are in an unfamiliar area. The map in the instrument cluster offers a third view with easy to follow turn-by-turn details.

When a navigation map is not on the center screen we use the central display to monitor vehicle status (drive mode and height) as well as trip data. When CarPlay pops up for an incoming text message the navigation screen on the passenger display is not disturbed.

Like all Porsche options the passenger display is obscenely expensive. But, I would reorder it if we ever get another Porsche.

Ditto.

Ditto.

Questionable value for sure; but I would still order it again because it adds to the overall cool factor of inside the car - but then again, I wasn't working to a budget - if I was, I would have gone Sports Chrono first.

It's a new function that was introduced with MY2022.

For those of us who are stranded with the old PCM version - someone posted a way to fiddle with the settings to trick the PCM to turn on the screen even without a passenger present. I can’t find that post now, anyone have a pointer?
