PORSCHE MACAN ELECTRIC ROAD TRIP TO SNOWY VERMONT!

EV Channels Review

This video chronicles a road trip in the 2024 Porsche Macan 4 EV to snowy Vermont, highlighting its capabilities and the realities of EV travel. The reviewer praises the Macan 4's comfort, style, and the effectiveness of its air suspension, particularly noting the massaging seats as a luxurious touch. However, the review points out several drawbacks: the heated steering wheel is only lukewarm, the basic stereo is recommended over the premium option to preserve trunk space, and the navigation system's charging recommendations are questioned. A persistent rattling noise, though seemingly resolved by tightening a wheel lock bolt and using a terry cloth on a latch, is a concern. The reviewer also expresses a desire for over-the-air updates for one-pedal driving and increased regenerative braking, noting that the current regen, while technically high, is not tuned as effectively as in Tesla vehicles. Charging infrastructure, specifically the inconvenience and unreliability of CCS stations compared to Tesla Superchargers, is a recurring theme. Despite these issues, the Macan 4 is deemed an "awesome" and comfortable road tripper, especially with its all-wheel-drive system and the tested Nokian snow tires.
