Mostly Macans, infrequently a Cayenne. I have been having them pick up and drop off the Taycan at my house as I'd rather drive my own cars when the Taycan has been broken

I believe the new update of the car AND CHARGER solved that 12v battery issue. I was told that the Porsche charger unit drained the 12v while charging the power battery. Hope that solves the issue. The 12v is isolated during power charging.

I'm in for the update now. I have a base Macan. The dealership has one Taycan currently in the loaner fleet but it was already checked out when I dropped off my car. The Macan is a fine car, but I can't wait to give it back.

2020 Cayenne E-Hybrid with huge dealer sticker on the doors. Only use it when my wife has taken the Macan. My car has been in the workshop for the update with a now broken PCM for 2 weeks, and don't expect it back until next week assuming Canada/US customs cooperate (and the update is successful this time). Dealer's Taycan loaner was taken already, other cars they provide are Macans. No complaints. Other dealers might just point you to the Enterprise, Hertz, etc. rep.

2nd time in now, and I tried to get a Taycan loaner, but the manager drives the demo car and would NOT give that thing up. They had two other units for sale, but that wasn’t happening and they were out of Porsche loaners, so they gave me a Range Rover Velar pretty much off the lot anyway. Dont know why they couldn’t have given me a Porsche, but 1st world problems. It’s a pretty nice SUV.

Only had mine in once, for the software update, and they gave me a Turbo S. My Turbo (no S), seemed almost the same when I punched the pedal to the metal...! $30k savings?!?

2020 Taycan 4S loaner today, Carrera white with 20" aero wheels and new software update installed. Great experience so far with the Taycan loaners (twice now).

My Taycan is currently at dealer for software update. They gave me choice: Taycan or Macan. Went for the Macan! I have a Taycan, I drive one all the time. Why would I want it as a loaner? I want something different (as long as it's a Porsche)! That's just the fun of a loaner!
Small problem: my wife loves the Macan loaner. I mean absolutely loves it. I haven't been able to get my hands on it myself. Could be an expensive software update... ??

I get offered base Macans when in service in Krakow, but don’t take them anymore as the dealership will cover my taxis. So I just go to the old town square, eat lunch and come back. Much more convenient as parking is impossible and I don’t need to fill up the Macan.

I think it’s country specific and based on how funds are raised to cover a temp car, not to mention if it’s a franchise dealer etc. Safe answer would what ever the dealer can get away with whilst having minimum outlay. Don’t think most have any obligation to provide ‘like for like’
